My Favorite Online Shops...




Right so decided to do a small post on the online shops that I love and always order from. The reason why I love them so much is that they don't actually have a store so its alot easier to buy things that everyone else wont have! I just loving getting things that are unique to me and different!
So basically there is a small chance of bumping into a friend to has the same item as you or just bought it the other day!
Don't get me wrong I love infact I adore Zara but just hard to get things from there that everyone else wont have or atleast know where you got it!

The first site that I think is fabulous and there stuff is just stunning is SaboSkirt. Found at http://saboskirt.com/.
Its an Australian brand so alot of there clothes are summer wear, but perfect timing as we are coming into summer...we hope anyways! There items are girly and feminine, using luscious and flowly fabrics!
They ship to Ireland aswell which is about $15!

SaboSkirt S/S 2013:




Sweet Chill Playsuit 
$48.00 
Super cute, ivory, off the shoulder chiffon playsuit in a loose, flowy fit. Elasticated bust line, waist line and sleeve cuffs. Semi-sheer sleeves. Wear with an over the shoulder fringed bag and ankle boots for the perfect casual look.


Lace Buttercup Bustier
$42.00
Super cute lace bustier top in baby blue, featuring cup inserts for support and removable straps. Hidden zip at the back. Perfect paired with high waist vintage shorts and a flower headband for the perfect summer or festival outfit. 


 Mint Lake Bodysuit
$42.00
Chic, mint bodysuit in chiffon-feel fabric feuaturing a plunging, V-neckline and a pleated lapel. Soft black cotton from waist down. Snap closures at crotch. Pair with a pastel bubble skirt and platforms!

Aloha Playsuit 
$46.00 

Super cute mint playsuit with deep neckline and tie up peep-hole front. Features ivory halter straps, four wooden buttons on the front and a loose, flowy fit.

NastyGal S/S 2013:


Another Site I adore is NastyGal, which is alot more recognized and known! Much more quirkier and funky stuff in compairson to SaboSkirt. Very reasonable in price also!
Shipping rate is brilliant...but does take about 2 weeks! So worth the wait though!
Website can be found at http://www.nastygal.com 





The looks above are very Spring and Summer orientated  but if your planning your Summer wardrobe already then this is the place to go! They have everything on this site from dresses to shoes and accessories! One stop shop in my opinion! 
And even better if the item is wrong or you dont like it they will refund your money no problem! A definite plus! 

SoleStruck S/S 2013:


This is a shoe website and I know often people doubt buying shoes online but I have purchased a pair of Jeffrey Campbell shoes from this website and it all went so smoothly!
There are so many comments from all the other gals who have bought shoes on this webiste and all of them were positive so I new Id be safe buying them!
There is also a really good size guide for every single shoe......so you really can go wrong!

Blyke Stud - $249.95
These are the shoes that I got. Everywhere I go I get comments on them and girls asking me where I got them..so they can go off and buy a pair themselves! 

 Blyke Stud - $249.95
They also have them in Nude which are amazing, but because I wear so much Black I new I had to go for them and the gold studs again a black outfit will just POP! 

SoleStruck sell so many different shoe designer. Not you typical designers like the likes of YSL or any of them. Its more of a unique style of shoe design and if you looking for a design completely unique to you this is the place to go!

These are the famous LITA by Jeffrey Campbell. They have them in very colour under the sun! And at a very good price also $159!

HAPPY SHOPPING

Sunglasses...New and Old





I am not going to lie I have a major weakness when it comes to Bags, Shoes and Sunglasses. I don't mind buying from Zara...H&M..Topshop but when it comes to bags, shoes & sunglasses I like to get good quality that will last, most of the time anyways! 
I recently bought a new pair of sunglasses...not designer, shock horror! But I think they are fab...and so very very similar to Tom Fords new SS2013 sunglasses line! So these will have to do for the time being...my birthday is in April so maybe if I am lucky I can ask for them...HINT HINT!!
I think people are either a hat person or sunglasses person, in other words hats only suit some people and the same with sunglasses. If you find the right shape for your face from the beginning yours sorted! For me I just love any square shaped sunglasses..the bigger the better in my opinion. 
To be honest most sunglasses that come out each each are very similar to the previous season, its only if I see a pair that I adore that I would splash out and buy them...don't want you all thinking I buy a new pair each season! I would if money grew on trees maybe....but it doesn't!! :(
Excuse the hair...I was just out of shower and put it in a wet bun!! 
The sharp lines on these are so classic yet funky! They could be paired with any outfit! Wanted to show the sharp sides of the glasses...just love it. 

 The above photos are of the new glasses I got today..an amazing €19!! Cant beat that now can you! They have a shop on Wicklow Street in Dublin but they also have a website, here. 


 D&G glasses..which I bought 2 summers ago on way to holidays. They were from sunglasses hut and a very good deal! I couldn't resist!! 

 My Miu Miu glasses...birthday present! He knows the way to my heart anyways... :)

D&G
 Miu Miu...just love any square shaped sunglasses.

 These RayBans are actually fake...well now when I say fake, they sold them to me as real just at a great price! Dont think I believe them...got them for €35! Dont really wear them to be honest...everyone look great in RayBans...but everytime I put them on Im like " naaaa" and go for my other ones! 

 Zaras finest...cant beat Zara stuff they never ever get it wrong do then, and only £20! Got them in London last summer! Cat style..which I actually really love. 
Zara have a pair online at the moment that are very similar. The link is here.

And finally these are the ones I got today....An amazing find on my lunch break! I should really leave my card at home though! :)
These are the new BCBG Maxazria SS 2013, now who else thinks these are very very similar to the ones  I purchased today! Only difference is they are about thirty times the price! Great bargain for me today!

My Boudoir...




When it comes to clothes and jewelry I am a bit of a hoarder...I keep saying "I might wear it someday" or "what if I need it and I have already thrown it out"! So I decided to get some fab storage boxes from a shop called muji.eu, which can be found here. There is also a store just off Grafton Street...that's where I got mine! Most are only between €15 -  €20...pretty good if u ask me!

They have every type of container you can think of...and if you like stationary..this is the place for you!
I got three different types...one for earrings (I have way too much I know), Bracelets necklaces and then one for rings and the stuff I wear all the time!

 Perfect for my earring collection!! :)



Everything just looks so much more organised and clean! It also mean that my stuff will be protected from dust and perfume! 

I thought while I was taking picture of my new containers I might aswell show you some of the other stuff around my room! I am a bit of a designer lover so pretty much any blank space in my room in covered in photos or magazine cuttings! My bedroom is my own personal space so I fill it with the stuff I loved! 
 My wardrobes...covered in magazine images! Great inspiration for outfit ideas! Its like my lookbook...
 MY PINK WALL...Love my pink wall!! 
I made this with magazine cuttings...stuck them all together. Then found an antique picture frame...looks pretty cool if I say so myself! 
I love just having different things around my room... especially if they are made by me! :)

Award 2013..BAFTAs, Golden Globes & Oscars





Just last night, the night before I started my blog, the 85th Academy Award “The Oscars”,were on in L.A. For my blog to be mainly focused around fashion what better thing to start with then the Oscars and all the other award ceremonies that have been happening over the last two months.
The preparation for these awards are tough, I can only image,...starting months ago I have no doubt! Skin treatments to dieting to the latest anti aging treatments and the top stylists by their sides! However, there is no doubt that they all looked fabulous.
Iv picked a few at the end that are my personal favorite!! 
Anyways here we go...
Amy Adams 

 Amy Adams at the BAFTA's. I just think the back and train of the dress is fabulous, such a flattering shape on her. 

She seems to love the train and puffy effect on the dresses she chooses. My favorite one is the Oscar de la Renta dress (above) which she wore to the Oscars. 

Ann Hathaway
 Ann Hathaway in Burberry 

 Ann Hathaway in Channel 

My personal favorite out off all three is Ann in the Prada dress, she looks so classic and elegant. 

Jennifer Lawrence
Jennifer Lawrence in Dior


 I think the nude/cream based colours suit her alot better due to her pale colouring. But the dress above is far to like a wedding dress!! 


 Jessica Chastain
 Her Oscar look is very typical of the Oscars, slick back hair, dark auburn lips.


Jessica has gone for an elegant look in all of the three awards, and she looks stunning in all of the dresses. Going for a classic looks means your very unlikly to get it wrong, as you can see above. 

Here are some of my favorite looks from the awards 2013: 
 This has to be my FAVORITE dress off the night! Maybe its because I adore the Downton Abby show but I think she looks just beautiful. She has gotten everything right from the hair to the dress. 



Does Jessica Alba ever get it wrong!! :)
I love the way her lips match her bag!
