Huge Halloween Wishlist!

I made a huge Halloween wishlist full of witchy lace dresses, masks and halloween accessories. I still havent decided what outfit I'll wear this year but it will most definately will be teamed with black lipstick and pointed patent heels. There are so many amazing Halloween lines this year. I was suprised to see the ASOS cat flats inspired by Charlotte Olympia and the lace dress from Urban Outfitters which looks just like a Molly Goddard dress. I hope you find something you like, I wish I could buy it all !!





Photo Diary: September

 The most major thing that happened in September was graduation. I now have a BA in English and Film!!
I don't really like many of the pictures from graduation because I was stressed and the hat looked terrible on me. Thank god I took it off for at least one photo. If you happen to be graduating soon too I would recommend bringing lots of hair clips and if you have a full fringe like me just push it back under your hat :L After graduation I went to an Italian restaurant in Dublin called La Caverna with my family and after that I went out with friends at The Capitol Bar, both places are definitely worth checking out if you are staying in Dublin
The second most major thing that happened is the fact that I moved to Bristol with Chris and started my masters course in Marketing Communications. Its great having our own flat :) I can't to do a little flat tour but I haven't bought a whole lot of homeware yet. We have been spending most of our money on Ikea furniture because the flat was completely unfurnished when we moved in. I never realized how much things like sofas cost !!
look he bought me roses ... awe
another cute couple thing! (last one I swear)
It was super hot in Bristol when I moved here in early September. I was so not used to it. Its gotten a lot colder now and its really starting to feel like Autumn so I can start wearing all black and parkas again ... yay!
we didn't really get the chance to go out that much in September because we spent most of our spare $$$ on furniture. Although we did go to Las Iguanas one night for cocktails. I love the food there and they have 2 for 1 cocktails and 25% off for students, what more could you want ??
we also went for a walk around the habourside area which is very pretty at night
one night we went to a free gig at Start The Bus for Colleen Green and Cassie Ramone
I was only really familiar with Cassie Ramone from the Vivian Girls and Colleen Green was completely new to me. One of the reasons I was excited to live in Bristol was the fact that there are a lot of opportunities to go to gigs. This month already I've been to three and they were amazing! 
I may also see Warpaint at Simple Things festival in Bristol if I have the day off. I got a waitressing job until my student loan comes through but lets not talk about that, lets talk about happier things ... lol

Zig Zag


zig zag top - river island (sold out)
black bralet - river island (sold out similar here)
shorts - topshop on ebay (sold out similar here and here)
shoes - topshop

When I was packing for Bristol I came across this little zig zag top from River Island that I used to always wear years ago when I was obsessed with sixties style. It has inspired to experiment more with black and white and sixties patterns. I bought these black pointed heels last week from Topshop. I have a lot of black shoes but the pointed toe makes them a real statement shoe. They also remind me of the pointed heels at Miu Miu A/W 15. I'm moving to Bristol tomorrow and I really can't wait. It's going to be such a big change living in a different county but it will be an adventure too. I also can't wait for fashion week!

Photo Diary: August


August was nice :) It was my birthday and the weather was still okay so we visited a couple of beaches
