BRIGHTEN UP

Wearing: Jacket and Jeans Dorthy Perkins, Cardigan H & M, Boots by Mystify. Earings and Bangles from Primark

I am looking forward to Spring. There is nothing nicer than seeing the flowers, trees and other things around you come to life. Not to mention the longer and warmer days. Today was cold and snowy. I wanted to brighten to my winter outfit with a bit of light pink and cream to help celebrate the coming of spring in just over 7 days.

With that in mind I have been opting for the fresh dewy make up look these past few days. Mainly using liquid and cream products on the face and just powdering the T-zone. I am really loving this look right now. I think it makes you look and feel more vibrant, fresher and youthful.

RED RED ROSE

Wearing: Leather Jacket from TK Maxx, Dress from Asos, Tights from Dunnes, Shoes from TK Maxx

My valentines day outfit.

All we want in life is to feel loved and appreciated. If you find someone out there that makes you feel good about yourself don't let insecurities and other people think you deserve anything less. Love yourself and let yourself be loved. I hope you all had a brilliant day.

WORK IT

Wearing: Top by Filo, Skirt from H & M, Cardigan from Forever New, Tights from Dunnes, Shoes from TK Maxx

The daily grind can be tiring and uninspiring. I work in a professional environment and being creative with my work wardrobe can be hard. Today I teamed a ruffled top with a textured pattern skirt. With a nice pair of heels your ready to go!

CASUAL CHIC

Wearing: Jacket and Draped cardigan from H & M, Top from Dorothy Perkins, Fitted Jean, Shoes from Asos.

Today I was in a rush (like most days) and threw on a simple yet chic outfit that I could be comfortable in. I love the shoes that I got from Asos on sale for $12, Bargain! I thought these gave my simple outfit the extra edge.

BRUSH ROLLING IT

Lately I lost the inspiration to blog but on Saturday I felt the urge to create. I designed and made myself a brush roll. I am attending painting classes and thought that a brush roll to keep my brushes in would be a nice project to occupy my mind.

Here is the final product




Now my brushes can be stored neatly and stylishly

PRE FALL 2010 FAVOURITES

Alexander Wang, Diane Von Furstenburg, Jason Wu and Michael Kors were collections that stood out for me in the pre-fall 2010 season.


This season sees a lot of black and grey tones in the form of fitted black pants, structured jackets and draped knitted jumpers/jackets from Alexander Wang. There are fun pieces in Diane Von Furstenburg's collection which includes tweed 3/4 length jackets, plaid wool blanket jackets and oversized cardigans. And I just love the effortlessly romantic dresses from Jason Wu.

3.1 = LOVE

Here are a few pieces I love from designer 3.1 Phillip Lim. Great designer, great tailor, his creations are beautiful and wearable.

Peace out xx
