Outfit of the day: All Black

Image
Last night I was out celebrating my friend Sarah's birthday, and once again I'm writing this curled up on my sofa....absolutely hanging!! I haven't been out properly since Halloween so was dying to get all glammed up, winter style! And as so many people complimented me on my outfit I said I'd do a quick post of what I wore :) I went with this simple outfit but it's still quite glam without going over the top. My top is from New Look and has a gorgeous silver beaded neck line. I wore it with a leather skater skirt from Warehouse and nude River Island heels....which I call the unwalkables!!! I also threw on my favourite Penneys coat which I recently bought for €40!  For my makeup I went for a smokey eye and berry lip. I used Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation, Urban Decay Naked Palette 3 for my eyes and Kate Moss Rimmel lipstick in No.107 on my lips with a lip balm over it to give my lips a shine. And I have to mention and say a big thanks to Lisa in Hair Sensations ...

Christmas Party Picks

Image
  'Tis the season to pull out all the stops and look like the ultimate Christmas babe for the various parties and festivities coming up. I'd say Coppers will be sweeping up so many sequins they'll be making dresses of their own! I myself have something on every weekend of December and even though I haven't even come close to finishing my Christmas shopping it's time to think about outfits! And my thinking would be "tis the season to sparkle". So I've scoured the internet for my favourite Christmas party pieces to share with you. I didn't make them into outfits though, as most people won't be buying full outfits they might just pick up one or two things. But if you do want outfit ideas, let me know!! I have plenty of skirts and dresses at home, so for me this year my main focus will be tops, but don't worry I've covered all options :) First up is midi skirts! These skirts are still very on trend and look great with a crop t...

Halloween Scene

Image
Halloween is only a few days away and even though there's no kids in my house, I'm still decorating for the occasion! I do have a big "Trick or Treat" sign on the halldoor, but inside the house things are a bit more creative  :) I was absolutely dying for the pumpkins to come into the shops so I could get started on the Halloween scene I had been planning!  I really only decorated my fire place and it was so quick, easy and cheap....and turned out fabulous! So if you like what you see all you need is a few pumpkins and about 20 minutes free time! First of all I gathered some leaves from my estate which of course are free, I tried to get different types and colours but there's only so much digging through leaves you can do, before you look like a crazy lady! I picked up the pumpkins from different supermarkets, the big one was €3 in Aldi and the smaller ones are 69cent in Tesco. To decorate the big one I bought two bunches of fake black flowers in EuroGiant for €1 ...

Payday Purchases: River Island Bargains

Image
My payday purchases are very late this month, but fear not...they're worth the delay! This time round, my main aim was to stock up on warm tops that I could layer easily. Last year's knits were looking a bit shabby so new clothes were in order...not that I ever need an excuse to shop. Luckily for me the River Island sale just started and they always do great discounts. I was like a kid on Christmas day when my order arrived and of course the office got a quick fashion show :) The first thing in my shopping bag was this leopard print bat wing jumper for an amazing price of €14!!! I was so lucky with this as I had originally ordered it pre sale in a size 10 but it was huge so I returned it and ordered a smaller size for half the price the next day!! It's sweatshirt material and loose at the bottom, perfect to wear with skinny jeans or leather look leggings (if I had some). Next newbie is this cute knitwear jumper, the minute...

Run A Muck Madness

Image
I'm sitting here on my sofa, with wet hair, in my onesie.... absolutely shattered!! As you can tell from the title of this post, I completed the Run A Muck challenge today! I'm sure you've heard of it before, but if not, it's exactly what it sounds like, running through muck. A 5k obstacle course of muck! And as you'll see by our faces, there was no shortage of muck! This picture was obviously before I started :)  In the weeks leading up to the challenge I had watched videos about it on YouTube and looked at the course map just to see what I was getting myself in for! There's me thinking I'd do a few obstacles and have a nice little run as well! I may have slightly underestimated how much muck was involved! The course was wet, mucky and then wet some more! I was flinging my body over bales of hay, climbing on top of tyre hills, just to slide back down into a wet mucky ditch and even tredging through deep ponds and under dark tunnels. There was tarzan ropes t...
