Rose Rendezvous

Hello again internet lovelies
So for this weeks Wednesday Wishlist, I was inspired by the pantone colour of the year for 2016: Rose Quartz. I have fallen head over heels for this colour and had way too much fun browsing the web for my favourite pieces to have a rose rendezvous with! This colour is perfect to add a subtle pop to any outfit and I'm sure I will be wearing it a lot more as spring rapidly approaches.

Let me know what your favourite piece is and anything else in this colour that I need in my life,

OOTD - Pop of Pink

Ladies (and possibly gentlemen), I am writing this as a free woman. Yes, you read right I am free of all leaving cert exams and secondary school forever! This means a lot more free time and therefore a lot more blogging and I cannot wait to see what this summer holds for my little blog.

Onto business, I recently attended the exclusive launch of "The Tan" By the 2 Jenns with my fabulous friend Rachel from Ohheythererachel . Evidently and coincidently I ended up matching the tan bottle with its black bottle and pink logo!

In all seriousness I am totally on board with the pop of colour trend and no matter what outfit you are wearing, adding some colour can really spice it up for the better. This neon pink shirt from penneys was the perfect addition to my all black attire and really made it stand out!

OOTD - Classy Casual

OOTD - Classy Casual

I put together this ensemble to give you guys some fashion inspiration for that event that could be both classy and casual. I decided to mix both of these styles by pairing the ultra casual ripped jeans with a classy pin-striped shirt and a blazer style jacket. The accessories also mix these styles with the casual slouchy bag paired with the structured hat and heeled boots. Its hard to find that balance between overdressed and underdressed but I think this outfit strikes that balance!

Hat - H&M

Jacket - River Island

Shirt - Zara

Belt - Caris Closet

Jeans - Topshop

Boots - Bank

Bag - Local Boutique

 What are your favourite versatile pieces that can be classy yet casual?

So I was in town last for not one but TWO college open days...scary stuff i know! On our way to the second open day my friend Rachel from ohheythererachel took a few pictures of our walk in the ever so beautiful Stephens Green. This outfit was so warm and perfect for the crispy Irish conditions but the shoes...not so suitable for walking long distances (they are pretty though!)

Jacket - Penneys (last year)

Jumper - River Island

Jeans - River Island

Boots - Carvella

Bag - Thrifted 

What are your winter wardrobe staples?

I recently recieved a few bits from their website www.cariscloset.ie and I thought I would show you how i styled them!
So first up is a Cari classic, the H belt . This little gem is conveniently reversable black/brown and I can already tell this will be a staple in my winter wardrobe!

This draped jumper is so warm and versatile and can be war with both dressy and casual tops underneath! Yet again perfect for the winter wardrobe and cosying up by the fire.

Possibly my favourite piece is the leather cuff I recieved, but it was a bit to edgy for this look! I will insert a picture of it never the less! Dont fret it will be featured in an outfit pic very soon!
