A new segment here on Oh Hey There Rachel, keeping you up to date with all the latest news in fashion. Here's what's been on my radar lately...
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! Available on prettylittlething.com now.
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.

Hey everyone,
Back in January I started a new series called 'Lately I've Been', and somehow I managed to forget about it.. no better time to kick start it again then Summer! When this post goes live I'll be in sunny Lisbon- I can't wait to get away from this shoddy Irish weather! This is the first time I've been abroad twice in one month, it really doesn't feel like I was only in France 2 weeks ago. I've said it before but I'll say it again- travel is a wonderful thing! Anyway, that's enough rambling for today, on to today's post!
Lately I've Been...
•Watching: Orange Is The New Black. Yep, I finally jumped on the bandwagon about a month ago, and I'm loving it! I'm still on season 2 but it's just so funny and easy to watch. I usually don't watch shows like this but surprisingly enough, it's become of my favourite TV shows.
•Listening To: Halsey. After hearing some of my friends rave about an American singer called Halsey, I was intrigued. I found her 'Room 93' EP on Spotify and it's all I've been listening to lately! I'm so excited for her album, which comes out in August. Not only are her lyrics amazing, but she's also stunning too. Give her a listen if you like Sky Ferreira or Marina & The Diamonds.
•Painting My Nails With: Sosu by Suzanne Jackson nail polish. One of Ireland's most popular bloggers ( of the blog So Sue Me) recently released her own nail polish range. It was actually my mam that bought our first two bottles, as she loves any 'gel finish' polishes! Since then we've picked up 3 more, and I have to say, they're actually really good. They don't chip for days and the colours are so gorgeous!
•Wearing: 'Brave' lipstick by MAC. I recently won a MAC lipstick of my choice on Twitter, and this is the shade I went for! I'm usually a bright lipstick kinda person, but I do like a good nude lipstick every now and then. This one is the perfect every day shade- pink but not too rosy!
•Loving: My new Lauryn Rose Jewellery* necklace. I received this in the post recently, and I adore it! The rose gold chain, the black jewel.. it's very me. I can't wait to style it!

Hey everyone,
I love reading, learning and watching things about fashion, so I thought I'd share some of my fashion favourites with you guys! First up- documentaries. I find fashion documentaries so relaxing and informative, and seeing as two of my favourites are in French, they're educational too! I'm always trying to expand my knowledge of the fashion industry and I find it easiest to do this in a visual manner. Let's get straight into it!
•Coco Avant Chanel: I watched this a couple of years back and fell in love. Audrey Tatou plays Coco extremely well, and the clothes are beautiful in it. This is technically a documentary film, but it's one of my favourites nonetheless. If you're into fashion history I highly recommend that you check this out. It's in French but there are subtitles (if you cant find it under Coco Avant Chanel, try Coco Before Chanel instead!).
•Yves Saint Laurent: Another French documentary film! I actually only found this on Netflix a couple of weeks ago. Although some parts of it were a bit long drawn out, it was an extremely fascinating film overall. I gained a lot of respect for YSL after watching it, as he really did have a tough life. If you enjoyed Coco, you'll definitely enjoy this!
•The September Issue: I've watched this countless times on DVD, but I recently noticed that it's on Netflix too! The September Issue documents the work that goes into the famous (and biggest) issue of Vogue Magazine that comes out annually. It's like a real-life version of the Devil Wears Prada! The style, the celebs..I loved it all! It really gives such an insightful look at Anna Wintour's life too.
•Bill Cunningham New York: Another Netflix pick! This documentary follows the work of legendary fashion photographer, Bill Cunningham, and his work for the New York Times. His street style photos are stunning, and this quirky documentary is a real feel-good watch.

Hey everyone,
Over the past few months, I have wholeheartedly become a Netflix addict, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. Unfortunately, it's probably not a good thing, seeing as it's most likely breaking into my study time.. Not to worry! I love a good TV series', and as soon as I finish one, I have a longing to start another. Here are some of my top picks!
