Insurgent, the sequel to the hit movie and best selling book Divergent, opens in Irish cinemas on March 19th and to celebrate I've got a €100 voucher for online fashion retailer, Boohoo, to giveaway!
The Divergent trilogy by Veronica Roth is on of my favouite book series', and not only did I write a review of the first book years ago here, but I also met the author too! Insurgent raises the stakes for main character Tris as she searches for allies and answers in the ruins of a dystopian Chicago. Tris (Shailene Woodley), Four (Theo James) and Caleb (Ansel Elgort) are being hunted by Jeanine Matthews (Kate Winslet). Together they must defeat the power hungry Erudite elite. Although Tris is haunted by her past, she is desperate to protect the ones she loves, including the handsome and kind Four.

Hey everyone,
Time for my last London Fashion Week post for this season- boo! I had such a wonderful time experiencing everything fashion week had to offer, and hopefully I'll be able to attend the full week in years to come. The last show I attended was Apu Jan in association with Fashion Scout at Freemasons' Hall. I didn't have a great view for this show in all honesty, and the venue looked slightly overcrowded. Not to worry- the show itself was still so exciting!
I didn't know much about Apu Jan as a designer before attending the show, but I was certainly anticipating it. The collection had quite a wide range of different shapes and textures- from cable knits to woven dresses. Minimalistic colours were used, but some colour popped up every now and then, particularly red! I loved the grey marble printed hats, as it really brought a bit of elegance to the collection. The shape of the pieces were generally very loose, with some more fitted pieces too. Overall it was a very diverse collection, and I was thoroughly impressed!
See any pieces you like from the images above? Let me know what you thought of my LFW posts below! All images were taken by me- please credit if using.

Hey everyone,
Bora Aksu was the only Somerset House show I attended during my trip to LFW, and it didn't disappoint! I loved Bora's previous collection so I had high hopes for Autumn/Winter. I had a brilliant view from where I was standing thankfully, but silly me forgot to check my camera settings before the show started, which led to me fumbling about with the settings just before it started!
The Bora Aksu A/W15 show was a pastel wonderland from start to finish. Opulent lace, pretty bow blouses and flowing material graced the runway this season. In all honesty, it really got me in the mood for Spring, even though it was an Autumn-Winter show. I absolutely adored the floral appliqué and the soft, dusty colours. There was something so romantic, so ethereal about this collection, and I was in awe watching the models strut down the runway. The show was closed by the fabulous (and Irish) presenter Laura Whitmore, which although was a bit surprising, was actually very refreshing to see too. One of my favourite looks was the lilac and pink dress below!

Hey everyone,
On Thursday when I flew into London I headed to the Boohoo Bloggers' Gifting Lounge to choose an outfit for fashion week. Naturally, I chose something quite monochrome, but I decided to step out of my comfort zone by wearing a bright fuschia jacket! I'm absolutely in love with it, it's such a versatile piece that I know I will wear time and time again. The chunky black heels were surprisingly easy enough to walk in, despite the huge platform! Mixing different grid patterns is a trend I've been loving lately, and fashion week was the perfect oppurtunity for me to just try something new.
Coat,top, trousers, shoes & clutch bag- all c/o Boohoo*
Earrings- New Look
