Spring has arrived!

Hi dolls!

Firstly, I'm sorry for not posting in about two weeks. It's been a hectic week!

Secondly, excuse the lack of make-up in these photos. (I hope I don't look too scary.)

Anyway... my look this week is an outfit that you could wear if you're meeting up with friends for coffee during the day.

However, you could also wear it if you're going to your local pub or somewhere with a relaxed atmosphere.

So let's get started.

Picture 1

Picture 1: I got this in Penneys last week on sale from €31 to €15. When I saw it, I knew I had to buy it. It was calling my name. Really, it was! The picture doesn't even do the colour or style justice. They also had it in blue, but I thought the white looked more classy and better for Spring and summer time. It will probaly get filthy, but it is totally worth the money.

Picture 2: I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS TOP!! I bought it in New Look for €14 or €15. It looks much better on than it does on the hanger. I like the fact that you could wear this on a summers day but also dress it up with leather jeans or a skirt and heels and wear it on a night out to the local. It could even be worn with sandles and tucked into shorts or a flowy skirt on holidays and still look stylist.

I wore this with jeans from Penneys that I have talked about in my previous 'Sunny college day look'. J'adore them too! Take a look and see if you like them as much as I do.

Picture 3: This is one of my most prized possessions because it belonged to my nana. #Vintage. I do love my high street clothes, but when you own something like this, which is so pretty, you have to mix and match. It is made from real wool and is so cosy. I wore it all the time during winter (and still now, because Ireland only has one climate), because it brightened up my outfits and went with almost everything.

If I was wearing this outfit during the day I would pair it with my M&S sunglasses and either the cream bag that I mention in my previous blog 'Sunny college day look', or a black clutch.

These are the shoes I wore. They were €11 in Penneys, but when I went up to the till, they scanned in at €3. Absolute bargain! I would say they look like they are from a more expensive high street shop than Penneys. I love when miracles like that happen. You can't go wrong with €3 shoes that were supposed to be €11. They go with everything too because of their colour.

Finalemente, el aspecto final...

I hope you like it!

Till next time mes amis...

Au revoir!

Sunny college day look

This is my college day look.

I am studying in college at the moment, and go to a college where fashion is the be all and end all, even though there is not undergraduate course for fashion.

I like to dress glamorously to catch the boys attention ;-).

Just kidding! I dress like I do because I want to feel glamorous. (There are some seriously good looking guys in my college though).

Enough about boys and my college life and onto where I got all of these beautiful clothes and accessories.

Most of my accessories and clothes today are from penneys. You may think what a cheap skate, but hey... their clothes are so good that they look like designer clothes. Just wait until you see the outfit at the very end.

Picture 1

I got this bag a million years ago when I was about thirteen. I bought it in penneys and love it because it gives the outfit a Spring/Summer feel to it or can lighten your mood (especially when it is a sunny day), instead of another black or dull coloured bag which can make an outfit look plain. It was €11 in Penneys and I'm sure you would find a very similar one in the same shop these days. It also looks quite expensive for the price that it was.

Picture 2

These are my ALL time favourite sunglasses. I bought them in Marks and Spencers. Now, I don't normally shop here, biut when I was walking through I saw them and they drew me over like a magpie to shiney objects. They were €40! They were most definitely worth that amount because they are UV protective and you will look great with them on. They also come with the pouch on which they are placed. I have probably worn them to death by now, but I just love them to bits.

Picture 3

I got this scarf as a present from my auntie the Christmas just gone. It is navy with white heart design. I saw another person wearing the same scarf last week, so they probably still have them in stock, except the scarf was black with pink hearts. I saw it in Penneys the other day, but again is looks and feels like it could have been an expensive scarf. It probably costs about €4 - 5. You could even wear a white scarf with navy on it as well if you wanted to brighten your outfit up even more.

My one and only leather jacket (I really need to get a new one, I know! Still searching for that perfect one. ;-) ). However, today this jacket was perfect for what I was wearing. It is a size 12 and i'm a size 8 so it is big, but not too big on me that it looks odd. It cost €9 in Penneys in the sales. ( I can't resist a sale. Even in penneys.)

Picture 5

I bought this for, wait for it... €4 in Penneys. €4!! You can't complain about that. It looks like it could be from an expensive shop. I love the simplicity of it because it is not just white. It has the black around the neckline and the shoulders. This again is a size 12 because I like my flowy tops to actually be flowy and not a top that looks like a bellytop but isn't.

    I wore this out with leather leggings, the red shoes and navy blazer from my previous blog and made it a night time outfit. A casual one at that, but still a night time outfit. Therefore this top is so adaptable and for €4, you cannot go wrong. 

    So, GO OUT AND BUY IT YOU MAD THINGS!!!!

I cannot rave about these jeans enough. I keep telling all of my friends how much i adore them. They're sick of me by now. I bought them in Penneys, yet again (my favourite shop as you can tell), for €17. I find it hard to find jeans that fit me right, so when I tried these on I HAD to buy them. There was no question about it. They fit very nicely and go with everything. You could even put these with heels and a nice top and wear them out to a club or the pub.

Et vuala... The finished look!

 

Match this with navy or cream coloured pumps and your day is off to a magnificent start.

Until next time...

Au revoir mes amis.
