I love coats. In fact, if I had to choose a favourite piece of clothing, I'd choose the winter coat. But the problem is, as soon as Winter comes around, I find it hard to commit to a new one. Not because of the price (although I'll admit that is a factor) but because there are so many different styles and colours to choose from. Will I go for a trusty cocoon one in dusty pink? Or stick with a monochrome palette this season?
Pastels For Spring

A couple of months ago I did a favour for a photographer friend of mine, Katie O' Neill, for a competition she was entering in association with Dublin Fashion Festival. I'm no model, but I thought it would be nice to share the photos with you all anyway, as Katie managed to make the final 5! I remember being absolutely freezing but it was a fun little project to take part in and Katie's photos are absolutely beautiful. You can check out more of her work on Instagram here!

Dublin- forever one of my favourite cities. Ok, so the public transport system isn't the best, and the amount of drug addicts visible on the streets is slightly horrific, but it's a city that I've spent a lot of my 17 years in. I should point out that I don't actually live in Dublin, but I'm close enough that I'm able to commute every day for university and my job. The sad thing is, I'm not sure if I can see myself living in Dublin in 10 years time. Maybe it's because I love travelling, maybe it's because there aren't as many oppurtunities in the fashion industry here. Maybe it's a bit of both. Regardless of where I may find myself living in the years to come, Dublin will always hold a special place in my heart.
This look is the perfect example of my every day college style. Comfortable shoes, a huge handbag to hold all my essentials and a scarf for the ever changing weather. These mermaid-esque Aldo runners are the new loves of my life- they look even better in person!

First things first-I am completely and utterly in love with this dress. Knee length, red lace and pretty damn comfortable, it's everything I need in a dress. I wore this look yesterday to the Blog Awards Ireland ceremony, where I was a finalist for Best Youth Blog and Best Fashion Blog. I'm extremely delighted to say that I won Bronze (3rd place) for Best Fashion Blog- crazy! Three years of blogging down, and hopefully many more to come. I posted a little cheesy rant on Instagram earlier (here), so I'll keep my cringe-worthy words over there.
Boohoo were kind enough to gift me this dress as they were sponsoring the fashion category, and my shoes were sent from Korkys. I felt a bit like a character out of Taylor Swift's 'Love Story' music video shooting this look... Shot at one of my favorite locations, Castletown House in Kildare, here's the finished look!

PrettyLittleThing.com x Lucy Mecklenburgh collab
Fashion and fitness guru Lucy Mecklenburgh has teamed up with PrettyLittleThing.com to launch an A/W collection inspired by her fashion muses. Lucy has been involved with the collection from start to finish- from designing to modelling. From sequin dresses to lace co-ords, there really is something for everyone!

Boohoo launch their Christmas collection
It's no lie that Boohoo are one of my all time favorite brands- not only are the clothes amazing quality, but they're also extremely affordable and very stylish too! I went along to their A/W preview last week and was greeted with glitter, pom poms and beautiful Christmas attire. I've already started adding pieces to my wishlist! Available soon on boohoo.com
Iris Apfel documentary added to Netflix
A must watch for all fashionistas, 'Iris' will certainly leave you feeling inspired. 94 year old Iris Apfel has fast become one of my style icons since watching this documentary- her well-spoken opinions on the fashion industry will really make you think, too.

Today's outfit post is a short one, simply because my camera died after 10 minutes- what's new? August is shaping up to be a very busy and hectic month for me- from exam results on Wednesday, university offers five days after and debs (prom) in two weeks. Not to mention the press events, family time and interning on top of that! So today I'm spending my lazy Sunday blogging and watching movies- might as well relish in my free time while have it.
I'm feeling quite anxious about my results, purely because the Summer seems to have made me lose focus. I can't recall how good my performance in the exams were, and I have no clue whether or not to start college this year, or defer for the year. Hopefully everything falls into place over the next few days!
Shirt- Zara, thrifted
Skirt- Boohoo*
Boots- Dunnes Stores*
Hat- Penneys/Primark
How are you spending your Sunday?
