Wishlist - October

Hello all,



Being a typical girl I will never ever be satisfied with my wardrobe and there is always a constant & growing list of pieces that I want to add to my stash. Whenever I see something I like on another person (this tends to happen in college..a lot) I take notes in my phone of what they were wearing & how they styled it. That probably sounds really creepy...oh well :) Here's what I've been lusting after this month.



  • A Mohair/ Angora a.k.a a fluffy jumper in a pastel pink colour. Winter + pink cosy jumper = Happiness. I've been on the hunt for one of these online but I haven't found one yet that's a reasonable price. I'm praying to the style Gods that Penneys will come out with a version soon




  • Burgundy Trousers- This colour is my all time favourite especially at this time of year. These pair from Boohoo are perfect and aren't overly expensive (€45) but it's still too much for my student wages. Here's hoping they'll go on sale



  • A leather/pleather skater skirt. Again this is something I've been hunting for for ages but I have never found one on the cheap that doesn't look too plasticy. Luckily today though myself and my housemates spotted one in Dunnes for €20. If I can scrape together some pennies maybe it will be mine soon...maybe.


  • Crystal Pendant Necklace. Maybe it's the effect of Halloween and being so excited about watching Hocus Pocus again but I am really loving the whole crystal necklace thing. Free People have some amazing but extremely overpriced ones, it's time to start searching the inter-web I think!

That's all for now folks,
'Til next time,

Burgundy, Black & Red

Hello all,


You know when you see something in Penneys you love but then you look at the price tag and think 'Ah that's too expensive for Penney's..sure maybe it'll go on sale & I'll get it then' ? Well that my friends is exactly what happened to me with this dress. The Sale Gods must of been with me that day when I wandered in and found it reduced from €17 to €7 , and there was only one left in my size..it was just meant to be :) I wore this outfit out last Saturday night, I hope you like it.

 Dress - €7, Penneys  Love the shape, colour & pattern of this dress.



 Necklace - €6, Penneys



Bag- €11, Penneys ( bit of a trend going on here..)


Heart studded -belt - €2, yep you guessed it Penneys! This isn't actually a waist belt but I just popped a hole in it with my scissors so I could wear it as one


Heels - €36ish with student discount, Missguided available here
