Scarlet Fever...

At the moment I'm seeing red... This time of year red is seen everywhere. Its such a bold and warm colour totally contrasting with the freezing weather and dim grey sky. Red is one of those colours that makes a girl or guy stand out from the crowd and I think anyone can pull it off. 

I looove this cut out skater style dress from Asos... It's red-hot ;)

Red is a colour that's suitable for night and day wear. just like these red jeans from Zara: 

These ankle length jeans look great with white and blue don't you think?

Red footwear also is huge right now, these Kurt Geiger heels certainly have the wow factor!

There's something very romantic and Carrie Bradshaw from SATC about these..

And for a more wearable pair of heals:

From Topshop

Platforms are still in style and due to the leg lengthening and height increasing benefits I'm sure they will remain in style for a very long time, Which make us tall girls feel even more gigantic.. thanks a lot platforms :P


And finally who can write a piece on seeing red and not mention the style staple that is red lipstick, it's been around since the beginning of time, well the 20's anyways and, like platforms, it isn't going anywhere fast!

Here i am trying out the renowned red lipped look.. crappy quality i know...

What do you guys think of this look??

...That's it for now my ladies in red ;) 

Gotta love fashion for the freeze...

I've recently started college and am doing a course I love ; Journalism and Media. But there is lots of walking around and lots of rain :( But on the plus side who doesnt love winter-y  fashion. My top 3 necessities for this time of year and for someone doing a lot of walking around in rain and freezing conditions are....
 1. ankle boots. These are perfect for stomping on frosted fallen leaves, for keeping our footsies toasty warm on cold mornings and for keeping the never-ending rain out. My favourite boots out there at the mo are:

 How cosy do these faux fur ankle boots from River Island look! I'd love them with khaki green leggings and a knitted cardy for a casual and comfy look... 


2. Capes: Not just for superman, capes are so huge at the mo as all you fashionistas know all too well. they are perfect for throwing on over just about anything and will keep you warm and dry for the up coming months. 

 This is one of many great capes available from ASOS. I love how vintage it looks.


3. Hats I must admit i have a little obsession with hats and never go anywhere this time of year without one stuck to my head, they're perfect for keeping your head and ears toasty, and prevent hail, wind or snow messing with your hair... whats not to love. 

Love the colour of this knitted pom pom hat from topshop, it reminds me of a hat Cheryl Cole was spotted wearing... 

Well guys thats my 3 necessities for this time of year, the weather may be miserable but that doesnt mean you have to be :)

Forgive me?

Remember me? Im so sorry iv neglected this blog so badly.. After a hectic school year I vowed I would improve this blog during the summer but then summer came and it was craaaazy! I was in Belgium on a youth exchange which was amazing, i met so many new people and made friends for life from countries like Greece and France. Then i took off to Tenerife on a girly holiday where we all had the time of our lives; sunning ourselves, partying and letting loose after a year of study. And then i had two debs or debutante balls.. where we all felt like princesses for a night! But now  this blog will get a lot more attention and i will really improve it, pinky promise! I think at this stage i owe you all a few pics from my ah-may-zing summer :) xoxo

 Myself in the chocolate museum... heaven!

 On the ''booze cruise'' in Tenerife... Madness

                                                                         
                                             ...and again :) 

                                               
            Sunning ourselves... oh i miss the sun!

    Me and all my beautiful friends before we set off for debs ball. My dress ( middle,light pink with a sort of tiered frill) was from Fran and Jane, i loved how pretty and girly it was and i was so relieved nobody had a dress like it! What do you guys think of all the dresses?? :) 

                                                 
                        Me and the lovely Orla

                       
 This was the night of my boyfriends, with my friends Kerry and Karen. 

       

                                 
     My dress here, from All Saints was much more plain and completely opposite to my pink one but i loved it all the same, especially the detail on the back:

I hope i didnt bore you with all my pics but at least now you know the reasons for my terrible neglection of this little blog of mine :) xoxo

Flower Power :)

    Im loving the spring styles right now but in particular the floral patterns... these patterns are not just reserved for dresses and playsuits.. they can be found on anything!! i recently went on a splurge in Penneys/ Primark and came home with such cute floral accessories, and all SO affordable! even better!! I did myself and my purse proud ;)

                    

      These little floral bow ear rings are my fave... so simple but instill the cute floral trend into every outfit, even boring school uniforms! What do you guys think? Which is your favourite trend right now?? :) xox

Puppy Love...

    My cute little doggy Cassie <3... Just felt like putting up a random pic for a quick posting.! 
    Does anyone know where i could get a slightly fitted black playsuit right now? i have an outfit idea in my head of a black playsuit, ankle socks and peep toe heels, what do you guys think?? and any idea where i could find the play suit? it's driving me absolutely craaaazy looking for it! xxx

3 words, 8 letters, say it and I'm your's...

I've been sick lately so spent my days watching back to back episodes of Gossip Girl, of course! I want to be the girls and get with the guys, at the moment I'm going through a Nate phase! but the main reason for watching apart from the crazy story lines is of course the clothes... 

 

i love Blairs Sophisticated glamourous outfits and absolutely adore Serena's laid back boho looks... the yellow waistcoat is too cute!

du printemps....

Its Spring, apparently, not outside my bedroom window though! Anyways... spring is the season i sometimes over look when it comes to certain styles. In winter i think knits and boots and summer is shorts and kaftans but spring is neither here nor there... until now that is! i absolutely LOVE the looks out right now, it's all quite girly but macho at the same time. i fell in love with a pair of braced boyfriend jeans which look really well contrasted with the cutest flower print pump trainers from penneys! i probably should upload a pic but i havent quite got the hang of that yet... all in good time! I love these Citizens of Humanity boyfriend jeans but my new look pair are pretty cool too and for a much cheaper price!  i just  prefer my penneys shoes though ;) These slouchy jeans add such a casual-ness to an outfit and are SO comfy, what more could you ask for <3

Also HEEEEY to my first and only follower Margaret! :)
