dublin fashion festival
September is always one of the busiest months for me- not only because it means going back to college, but because of the numerous press events too. September is famously known as the start of the new fashion year and the Irish fashion industry celebrates that with Dublin Fashion Festival. Hosted by Dublin Town, DFF is a festival that I've been attending for about 3 years now and it's always an Autumn highlight for me. The festival launch occurred a few weeks ago (which I wrote about for Siopaella here) but the actual festival runs from September 5th-11th. Here's my top picks from this year's schedule- all open to the general public for free!

Hey everyone,
I recently attended the Creative Quarter fashion show at Powerscourt Centre [Dublin] as part of Dublin Fashion Festival. As I'm sure some of you will remember from reading my previous blog posts, I was SUPPOSED to be volunteering at DFF this year. Unfortunately after a disappointing turn of events, I was told that only over 18s could volunteer. The amount of times I've been turned down for certain things because of my age is unreal! But anyways, let's leave all that for a another day...
The fashion show itself was astounding as are all the shows! Dublin Fashion Festival [or DFF as its shortened to] runs every September. Tomorrow is the last day, so if you're around Dublin I'd definitely suggest heading in to some of the [free] events! Have a look at the DFF website, here. I'll leave my favorite looks below from the show below. We had a brilliant standing spot, so I was pretty impressed with the shots I took!
My Outfit;
Dress; Republic
Jacket- Penneys/Primark
Boots- Heatons
Round silver bracelet- gift
Thin silver bracelet- Pandora
Necklace- mam's jewelry box!
The Fashion Show;
Will you be attending DFF this year?

Hey everyone,
Wow, that title is definitely a mouthful, but I really needed to cram it all in! I feel like I haven't properly written a post in AGES, just photos after photos, so this post is well needed. Alot has been going on in my life lately! I guess I'll start with the easiest thing to talk about, which is the OOHLALA magazine launch and blog awards. It was so much fun! Although I wasn't up for any awards, it was great to meet some of my favorite bloggers and also see some clothes from Penneys A/W collection.

Also, as some of you may know, I had work experience with KISS magazine all last week! It was brilliant- sitting there, in an office surrounded by people loving their job, made me realise that THATs what I want in life. I would love to work for a magazine like KISS, or any magazine at that. We had to do things like bring back clothes to shops, pick up clothes, think of ideas and we also got to make the DIY items for the craft page! The staff were all so nice. We also got our nails done by NCLA, which you can see in my next outfit post! If you would like to find out more about my work experience, simply drop me an email @ vogueandcouture@gmail.com . It was definitely an experience of a lifetime, and will definitely look good on on my CV when I leave school.
I recently pplied for volunteering at the Dublin Fashion Festival, and I'm delighted to say I was chosen! I'm looking forward to the adventures that will bring too, and I'll be posting more about that nearer to the time.
When I reach 150 followers on Bloglovin' [only 5 away guys!] I'll be hosting my first ever GIVEAWAY! I'm super excited, especially since I've never hosted one before.
Lastly, I will be posting my first ever youtube video soon- stay tuned!

Hey everyone!
I recently attended the media launch of the Dublin Fashion festival, which runs from September 5th-8th. I can't wait for the festival! You can read more about it here, and if you're around in Dublin in September you should definitely check it out!
The launch itself involved a fashion show, which showcased some gorgeous clothes & accessories from the likes of Penneys, Brown Thomas and Dunnes Stores. Below are some of my favorite looks.
I also saw a few celebs, like Laura Whitmore who was hosting it, but I was more excited when I saw Alexander Ludwig, aka Cato from The Hunger Games walk in! *swoon*
