5 things I'm loving

This is just a quick Sunday morning post to share with you 5 thing's I've been loving this week! 

1. Criminal Minds

Anyone who knows me knows I have a slight HUGE obsession with Spencer Reid. I could watch Criminal Minds all day, everyday and I'd still be smiling. I've downloaded about 3 seasons while studying the last few days and I've stuck in my headphone's and been in my own little world.

2. Lexi - FashionFilth.com

Between Lexi's YouiTube & Blog as well as her appearance on FashtagTv, I have been addicted all week. I mean, she is far more interesting than studying for exams. I love everything from her style, to her honest opinions on thing's, her tattoo's.. UGH just everything. She seems so lovely and down to earth. If you don't know who she is go and check her out you won't be let down I promise you!

3. Smooch Lipstick

I've strayed away from my normal pink lipsticks and been sporting a red lip all this week. My lipstick of choice is this Smooch one which I picked up in Cara Pharmacy in Sligo for only € 2.99.

4. Coffee

Been a self confessed coffee addict (Thanks Mom!) since about the age of 17, coffee is a part of my daily routine anyway, but I've been doubling up since study week started.

5. Black Skater Skirt

Such a staple piece! I've been looking for loads of different ones but I finally went with the bargin hunter in me and picked up one from Pennys/Primark for € 7! I'm going to get so much wear out of it!

Keep Smiling! x

NARS Orgasm

I came back home last weekend and my beautiful friend Aislinn got me a little present... & When I say little, I mean the blush of all blushes, the most gorgeous and iconic shade for cheeks - NARS Orgasm. If you've been reading beauty blogs for a while then you'll know just how raved about this is and with good reason. It's a healthy, natural colour that immediately lightens the complexion. It's so easy to apply and in my opinion it looks good on any skin tone. It has a very silky texture and has just the right amount of shimmer in it which I love, and it's so easy to blend and build up. Even the classic black packaging is gorgeous and you know that you have a special product in your hands! I am so grateful for this present and it's causing serious envy at home from my little Sister! I can tell I'm going to get a lot of wear out of it :) So thank you Ais, you made my month with your kindness! All I have to say now is 'Welcome to the family!'

The End of an Era

So, it's a bank holiday Monday and I decided to share with you my antics from last week. It was my last night out as a PR student in IT Sligo! What an amazing 3 years it has been. I've learned a lot, regretted some, laughed so much, not remembered quite a bit but most of all - I grew up. living on my own in a town 2 hours away from my hometown & my family has certainly thought me just as much as college itself has. To celebrate our last night as a little college family our course decided to go for a meal and then out for some messing to be blunt!! Now, we won't discuss the hangover that followed but Thursday night was one of my favorite nights out in a long time. I'm going to keep it short and sweet and show you what I wore because I done something I don't normally do and went out in a lot of colour! I loved my shoes even though they REALLY hurt my poor feet! and my lovely housemate, Lisa, gave me a lend of her stunning hot pink River Island clutch bag that completed my outfit I think (not pictured!)... I'm back home, studying for my two final exams and celebrating my baby brothers sweet 16 with pizza!

Weekend Antics

So this weekend involved a lot of lazing around, hanging with the family and finishing off college assignments! I managed to take a few snaps while I was home so I thought I'd share it all with you guy's... Today it's been quite sunny but yet it's managed to rain most of the day, makes sense I know.. Love you Ireland!! Anyway....

Started off with washing my make up brushes, every girls favorite thing to do!

Off to town with my Mom, blue skies are great!

Writing up posts for my blog! One of my new favorite things to do :)

Hanging out with my baby, Benny

Starting of the morning with my best friend, coffee

& heading back to college, 2 hours on the train :(

Sunshine makes me smile

So you know when you buy new clothes and you just wanna wear them all at once? Yeahh.... That's what I done yesterday. I wouldn't mind but all I done was walk through town to meet my little sister but with the weather been so nice, why not look nice? Now, I realise my top makes me look about 579369 stone heavier than I am but it's about two sizes too bit for me as I wanted it to cover my backside with leggings, you girls understand! My leggings themselves have the word 'GEEK' all over them and I know statement t-shirts are all in for this season so why can't statement leggings be too? Hmmm :) It's been so sunny where I am the last few day's let's hope it stays that way because it just makes everyone so happy! and on a further positive note, it's my last week of college next week! What have you all been up too? :)

Keep Smiling! x

Office Talk

Another long week in college means yet more presentations, exams and deadlines! However, on the bright side I only have a little over a week left which makes me smile! For an advanced marketing presentation I had this week I decided to dress up a little, dress to impress so they say, and although I'm not a skinny girl I feel I looked appropriate. I was happy with my choices anyway!

 My favourite part of my outfit is my new watch (even if it is a little too big for my wrist!) that I got at the weekend. I love my shoes too, you can't really go wrong with a bit of leopard print, can you? There also super comfortable which is a bonus when it comes to wearing anything that's slightly high! 

My lipstick was a classic brick read by Smooch in the shade 02, although you can't really tell in this picture it was super soft and very pigmented! As for my nails, you know I've been quite obsessed with them since my last post and for today I went with a nice neutral colour in Park Ave by NYC. And of course the rest was kept classic and simple in all black :)

A Dash of DIY

This is going to be a short & simple post just to let you all know about something I'm quite proud of! During Easter break from lectures my boredom met my creativity and this pair of earrings emerged. I didn't really think much of them at the time, just that I liked how they turned out but they have earned me a few compliments since I've been back from my holidays! They've also become the main prototype for a final assignment in college too which is flattering for me! Anyway, I just thought I'd share with you all what they looked like and to prove you don't need to spend a bomb on fancy jewellery to get what you want... Maybe you just need a rainy Wednesday afternoon? ;)
