Floral & Silver

Hello all!


It has been awhileen since I last did an outfit post. This is mainly due to a hectic few weeks , but thankfully the craziness is over and I can hopefully start getting back into the swing of things! Considering it is in fact Spring (you certainly wouldn't think it, what with our 4 seasons in one day thing going on) I have had a complete lack of co-operation with Mother Nature the past few weekends. Thankfully though the sun came out long enough for an outfit post before the sky once more released a flurry of hailstones! The dress I am wearing in this post is one of my absolute favourites, what makes it even sweeter is that I only paid £5 for it! I know, that's feckin cheaper than Penneys! Anyway, enough rambling! I hope you enjoy !














Dress - £5, Peckham
Leather Jacket - €49.99, Pull & Bear
Hat- €12, Missguided
Necklace- €5, Penneys
Shoes- €13, Penneys
Bag- €11, Penneys 

As always thank you for reading!
'Til next time,

Floral and Pleather !

Hello all,

This outfit features one of my favourite E-bay purchases - my floral shirt. I love this shirt, it's so pretty and looks so much more expensive than it actually was. I love it so much I will actually be giving one away over on my Facebook Page , so stay tuned for that :) It was absolutely freezing when my sister & I shot this outfit. It was her idea to go down by the river where all this creepy fog was lingering but I really like how the photos came out. I hope you do too!









Floral Shirt- €10, E-bay
Pleather Skirt- €15, Boohoo
Necklace- €10ish Etsy
Shoes- €25.00 H&M

That's all for now folks,
Thank you for reading!

New Additions

Hello all,


This week myself and a few of my college friends went into Dublin for a spot of shopping. I say shopping but what it really consisted of was us standing in awe in the Disney shop and drinking hot chocolate. There was also a trip to Dublin Ink where three of us got piercings as you do, mine was extremely spur of the moment ( thank you Vanessa for my education on the human ear)but no harm. I had never seen the Christmas lights in the big Smoke ( what a cluchie) so I definitely went home in a very Christmassy mood. Ironically most of things I bought that day were black..oops!
Here are some of the recent things that have sneaked into my wardrobe :)


1) Green Velvet Top - €5, Penneys




I love velvet and I love this shade of green so when I saw this top reduced from €13 to just €5 I had to have it. It is slightly longer than the average crop top which I also love as I don't really think the normal crop top suits me. I can't wait to wear it with high waisted jeans!


2) Pleather Joggers- Primark, €13



These are a bit odd & I don't know why I love them but I just do. I have gone mad for anything pleather-esque (which you will see in a bit)lately and these were no exception. I live in skinny jeans so it's nice to wear something with a different shape to them. 


3) Pack of 5 Glitter Socks- Penneys, €3.50



I love glitter and I love socks so I most definitely love glitter socks. I like to wear these 'fancier' socks - meaning not my odd ones that my family and housemates always see, for wearing with ankles boots or my converse. I think it's nice to just have them peeking up from your shoes :) 


 4) Pleather Pencil Skirt - New Look, €16.99



I love the shape of this skirt and although it isn't the most flattering of materials, especially when skin tight I somehow don't really mind ( I probably should but whatevs). I have been on the hunt for a skirt like this for too long and I was so happy to find it in New Look. I can see it becoming a staple for college nights out.


5) Pleather Skater Skirt- Boohoo, €15



Yes pleather again, I'm sorry. I mentioned I was looking for a pleather skater skirt in my latest wishlist post and thankfully Boohoo saved the day. This skirt has a lovely shape to it and I like the way it sort of ...well sticks out ! A handy thing to throw on and make it look like you put in an effort!


6) Floral Peplum Skirt- €20, second hand



I love this skirt so much. I am so late on the whole peplum thing but better late than never as they say. I bought this second hand from fellow Irish fashion blogger Retro Flame. It is originally Zara but I got it for just €20 which is amazing for a Zara piece. I can't wait to wear it :)


That's all for now folks, I hope you saw something you like and have better self control than me :)
Til next time,
Hannah

Thank you for reading!

Florals, Lace & Arrows

Hello all,


This outfit features my new, crazy floral trousers. They are my proudest E-bay purchase to date. They're originally from Next retailing at €60 but I got them for less than €20 including postage ( it was a proud day). The trousers may seem a bit out there but when teamed with simple pieces they are completely wearable! Anyway, that's enough blathering, here we go..


Leather Jacket- TX MAXX, €28    also featured in an outfit here



Ahh the trousers- E-bay, about €20 . If you like what you see there is one pair left here :)




Lace Top- Boohoo, €24 . Also featured in an outfit here




Heels- Missguided, €36 with student discount. My favourite pair of heels by far & they're still in stock click me




'Torc Arrow' Necklace- Boohoo, €12. I love how unique this necklace is, it's a bit different to the usual statement necklace we're used to seeing.
