If you’re like me and you freak out at the thought of wearing two patterns together this might be useful to you. Generally I wear a neutral item of clothing with a print rather than two prints, the later scares the bejeepers out of me. But this is so boring for me.
Since it’s Spring and I’m a huge fan of colour (there is only one black item in my closet) I decided to experiment with mixing patterns since I enjoy a quirkier style.
I started a little bit of research and then I came across this tip which will totally help me get dressed this season! (more…)

This is my first photograph of my new hair. It’s SO bright! Very Irish picture though don’t you think! Red hair, blue eyes, good aul’ Irish rocks and grass :)
And the whole outfit…
1.River Island 2. Mango 3. Pull and Bear 4. Kathy Van Zeeland 5. A-Wear 6. River Island 7.Claire’s Accessories. Skinny jeans are from Urban Outfitters.
I loved this bag as soon as I laid eyes on it. It’s by Kathy Van Zeeland, I picked it up in Chicago. I like to wear it messenger style for casual days like this.
Cardi is from Mango. I never liked it until now, the gruaig change has made this cardigan look better.
I love this scarf. It goes with so many things. To be honest I’m not overly concerned with whether stuff goes or not. I like a good clash sometimes.
The wooden bangle is from Penneys, I throw it on most days with other bracelets and bangles. The gold cuff is from River Island.
It was freezing today so a hat was necessary. This cute wool bear hat is so warm. I bought it is River island a few weeks ago.
What did you wear today?

I hate clearing out my wardrobe. Hate it with a passion. I’d actually rather clean toilets for a day over a closet clear-out (I think that tells you how much I hate doing it!)
Today I decided to bite the bullet and get down to spring cleaning my closet. I find clutter makes my mind feel cluttered. Clearing out does wonders for the soul for some reason. Maybe it’s because it feels like a bit of a fresh start or clean slate.
I thought it might be useful if I share my clearing out method :) (more…)

Christmas sales are in full swing. This means that I have been on the hunt for the ‘good sales’. The ones that don’t take old stock from a decade ago, put it on the rack and expect us to pay €10 for it, I don’t think so! In a good sale I expect to see this seasons stock on sale, not random bikini tops (without bottoms) from 1999…Ms Selfridge, take note!
With that in mind here’s a little guide to the Christmas sales
- Boots have halved the price of all their Christmas gifts.
- Debenhams sale is worth a look, good bargains. If you don’t fancy queuing check out their website.
- McCabes pharmacy is selling off their perfume gift sets at a reduced price
- A-Wear seem to have a good sale on at the moment, at least it doesn’t appear that they have dragged out old stock from 1992!
- H & M have quite a number of sale racks. Granted they seem to be summer stock, but I did pick up a pretty lemon blouse and a nice scarf.
- I always enjoy the Next sale. They discount a lot of their stock. I got quite a few nice staple pieces last year. (Although I haven’t heard great things about their sale this year)
- Asos.com are having a 50% sale at the moment. I’m off to have a look in a few minutes, can’t wait!
- I have been informed that Jane Norman have 50% their sale stock
- River Island have some good offers on at the moment, but the nice stuff is going fast!
I know where I’m heading :)
Did you find any good bargains in the sales?
