I know, I know.....navy and black again. I promise I'll stop! What started off as a horrible day, missing my train and actually having to use an umbrella, turned out not so bad after all. Presentation in college went well and was brought for lunch by my cousin. Plus I felt happy in my cosy collar!

Loving navy and black together at the moment. It was the black velvet buttons that made me want this coat! This scarf: new favorite possession :)

Budgetless Binging


(From left: CelebBoutique Dress, Lush Shorts, Topshop Brogues, American Apparel sleeveless Shirt and Shorts)




Binge of the week!!! Dying to collaborate all these items. The dress, unfortunately, is going to sit lonely in my closet until New Years Eve, but that will make the occasion all the more lovely! Excitedly tried on the brogues for my boyfriend and he said i looked like a 'clown'. I'm hoping they'll have a more positive response from all of you! Bought this amazingly PERFECT scarf on a new vintage site: RetroSpec. So simple. Just like them on facebook, comment on the item you would like to purchase and its yours! Missed out on this exquisite vintage Valentino blazer for only €75! Anyone looking for unique pieces should like it this instance! Outfit post tomorrow including some of my binge items....

Winter Wish List 2011

By Austin Rhatigan

1.Topshop Cable Pom Pom Beanie
2.Moschino Belt
3.Barbour Vintage Beadnell Waxed Jacket
4.The Row Backpack Alligator
5.COS A-Line Buttonless Shirt
6.Topshop Satin Short by Boutique
7.Jeffrey Campbell Warrant Platform Boot
8.House of Harlow Chelsea Cat Eye
9.Odyssey White/Pink Quad Roller Skates

Im obsessed with the idea of starting skating again! I remember my first pair of roller blades and they were glued to my feet for the better part of my childhood. I mean, what is more fun than rollerblading??!! These items are must-haves for my December looks. Not only is there multiple outfits within them, but they are super versatile and would complete so many other outfits in my wardrobe. Thinking the Barbour wax jacket is at the top of my list, and the Backpack is only to dream of as it is way out of my price range! PS Thanks to lollipop26 and the blogging community for being tremendously friendly and supportive in promoting my blog :)

The West

Spent the weekend on the west coast of Ireland with a few of the girls. Was a fabulous mini-holiday. I felt so comfortable in this outfit and was able to change into my wellies for the walk along the beach, and still felt like my outfit was complete. I've always loved how Rumi Neely layers her tops and am beginning to get the gist of it....i think! This blouse is aaages old but i adore the subtle butterfly detail. I could never throw it out :) Hope for those of you who haven't been to Ireland, these pics will inspire you to make the journey.

Sheer Roses





(Topshop Blouse and Pants, Urban Outfitters Blazer, Vintage Bag, Jeffery Campbell Litas)

Tried the new restaurant in Monkstown over the weekend: Salt. Yummy and the interior is so cute...loved these piano keys on the wall. So clever! Bought this bag the same day at a Vintage Fair. Was so much fun. Fell in love with the most amazing fur coat. It was heartbreaking when i saw the price tag and couldn't justify spending that amount on myself so close to Christmas. Maybe Santa had elves watching and it will magically appear in my stocking on Christmas morning!!!!

Love love love this denim jacket. Folded up the cuffs and the bottoms of my jeans so they were matching. Small detail, but for me it made my outfit! Bought two nailvarnishes today.... Super excited to play with them and show you. Pay day tomorrow. Can't wait :)

Polar Bear






(Cos Top, Urban Outfitters Skirt, Topshop Boots, Unio Cardigan bought on NastyGal)



I was in such a rush this morning and the moment I threw my new shoes on I knew it was going to be a rough day for my feet. I sat all day in the library studying and even the hobble to the bathroom was agony. I had to stop drinking coffee so as to avoid needing to go to the bathroom! My poor feet. Im devastated. I love my new shoes but I think my feet will need a bit of a break from them :( Austin quickly took these pics when we got home, before I ripped the boots off!
