Rag Week...






Jacket - H&M
Shirt - Topshop
Leggings - Mango
Heels - New Look
Bag - Aldo
Nails - Primark (I filed them into pointy ones)
Chain - Topshop


So Galway Rag week has come and gone and thankfully we all survived! I love this outfit because it's simple but classic. I took inspiration from the Tuxedo look Angelina Jolie wore to the BAFTA's lately. I added in just small dainty gold jewellery and my favouite going-out bag I picked up for $18 in America last summer, great buy! The nude shoes are from New Look and aside from the fact that they're a bit too big for my little feet (I stuffed them with loo roll) they are one of my favourite pairs of shoes EVER! They dress up any outfit especially when your wearing jeans or leggings and the heels isn't uncomfortably high.

Ins and Outs






Jacket - H&M
Top - Primark
Leggings - Mango
Boots - River Island
Lipstick - MAC Rebel
Necklace - Topshop

This is my final Amsterdam Post. We decided to dress up a little bit on our last night minus high heels, probably shouldn't have packed them! I Picked up these leggings in Mango in a Shopping Centre near Prins Hendrikkade (the main street on the river side). I paired them up with a simple Cami from Primark and my favourite dressy jacket, my white tuxedo jacket I picked up in H&M last summer in America for $30. We ventured to the Red Light District to see a "Show". It was surely an experience and I would reccommend anyone to do it once!

Amsterdam who/Where/ What

Where to stay: Any where around the Dam Square as it's in the centre of everything, the shops, the tourist attractions and the trains and buses. We Stayed in City Hotel adn it was great value for money and very comfortable.





Where to Go: Red Light District for the true Amsterdam Experience
Any Koffeeshop Because you have to try everything once





Where to go out: Rembrandt Square is full of every kind of nightclub and bar you could want all in one area



Where to go for shopping: Any of the streets off the dam Square for High End Department store Bijenkorf to High Street stores like H&M, Mango and Zara.



One thing you need to know about Amsterdam is you don't really need a map or a set schedule, just go with the flow and get lost in the windy streets of the lovely City!

Hello Prins Hendrikkade


Mesh Jumper - Missguidded
Leggings - River Island
Jacket - H&M 
Watch - Michael Kors
Boots - River Island
Bag - Zara
Necklace - Primark
Lipstick - Catrice Ultimate Colour 260

This outfit is what I wore for our first night out in Amserdam. I'm not gonna lie I was tipsy taking these photos! Great location by the river at night, capturing the reflections of the street lights on the water! We stuck to the streets around Prins Hendrikkade which is the main street on the river where the Central Train Station,  Main Bus Stops and a lot of the hotels are. We stayed in City Hotel which I would highly recommend for value for money (It only has 2 stars but definitly deserves more!) We went to a little pub on a corner of one of the windy little streets and made our way along to a nightclub. Great first night in the a City that never sleeps. More to come for the trip still :)

Amsterdam Bound


Jumper - New Look
Leggings - Pennys (Primark)
Boots - River Island
Scarf - Charlotte Russe
Chain - Zara
Watch - Michael Kors
Suitcase - Pennys (Primark)
Rings - Topshop/H&M

So It's been a while since my last post because I've been so busy with work and my trip to Amsterdam! Here's a photo of my traveling outfit from T1 in Dublin Airport. Leggings are pretty much an essential for plane journeys I reckon especially when your destination is bucketing rain out of the heavens. I brought along my leather jacket instead of my thick wool jacket because I thought I wouldn't need a big jacket.. Joke was on me :( Love my little cream cabin sized suitcase from Pennys though, a steal at €26, and I must say it was a perfect size for a weekend away in Europe! Much more outfit posts to come from my tip as well as a summary of what's good to do and see in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. I shall leave you with this photo for the time being...
