Wedding Guest Style Inspo!

Hello everyone, I feel like it's been ages since I have posted a new blog! For this one I am going to give you guys a little wedding guest style inspiration, these dresses are not just for weddings but if you have communions, christenings etc coming up these would be perfect for the day too! Here I have pulled 8 outfits for you that I love and that I think would be perfect for a special occasion. I searched through many websites like Asos, River Island, Pretty Little Thing etc, but I kept going back to Missguided as I thought they had such lovely pieces in. All of these outfits can be bought on missguided and I have the link's added just below the outfit, hope you like the outfits I have chosen. Happy shopping!

ladder trim embroidered flocked bodycon dress burgundy!

I have been loving the embroidery trend at the minute, I think the colours in this dress are so goregous, this is definitely a head turner outfit! It's not expensive either but looks it so you cannot go wrong! Definitely my favourite piece that I picked. You could wear either nude, black or rose gold heels with this dress, any 3 would go with it. 

nude lace high neck fishtail midi dress!

Obsessed with this beaut nude dress, the lace detailing and fishtail detail on bottom is just so classy. Would look gorgeous with a fab tan, I recommend bBold tan it's my favourite and lasts for days! 

grey lace high neck sleeveless jumpsuit!

Love this grey jumpsuit the lace detailing is so pretty topped off with a pair of nude strappy heels and clutch you're ready to go as not too much jewellery would be needed, maybe a dainty little bracelet! 

pink lace frill bardot halterneck midi dress!

I love this pastel pink dress, the lace overlay is so different. Such a flattering piece on, and the back of it is so gorgeous, just click the link to see more images on Missguided's website.

nude bandage bardot midi dress

I actually got the inspo for this dress off Nancy Kavanagh, if you don't know her, well you should! She is the owner of Belle Hair Extensions Galway, and is absolutely unreal at her job and is such an inspiration for young girls. If you want to see this dress on her just have a look at her Instagram and be sure to give her a follow. She actually wore this piece this weekend for a night out, but I do definitely think it would be suited for a wedding, once again I love the bardot trend.

pink lace plunge bodycon dress!

I have loved this dress on Missguided for so long and you can get it in a few different colours. It is so Balmain inspired.. without the massive price tag! Such a gorgeous piece for any occasion really. Very Kylie Jenner/Kim Kardashian!

black v bar bardot frill hem midi dress!

A black dress is something every girl should really keep in her wardrobe. Lately I have been loving off the shoulder pieces of clothing I think they are stunning and if you drench yourself in some coco brown goddess oil or some highlight and put it onto your collar bones it looks fabulous! This dress would look gorgeous with some rose gold heels and clutch.

high neck frill cold shoulder midi dress red!

You can never go wrong with a red dress, love the frills in this dress which is definitely a big trend at the minute. Topped off with a pair of nude heels will be perfect for whatever the occasion is.

                                                    

                                                                                   nude silky halterneck jumpsuit!

Personally I am not too much of a dress girl, I love looking at them.. but I don't really wear them! I LOVE jumpsuits though. I think this one is so pretty I love the luxe silky finish. You wouldn't even need jewellery with this piece as it is such a statement look.

red scuba square neck frill hem midi dress!

Literally obsessed with this dress, it's so classy and would be so figure-flattering on! This would be even so gorgeous for a date night/anniversary. 

Thanks for having a read everyone, hope you all have a lovely bank holiday Sunday x

Stylish Travel Luggage!

Hello everyone! I am definitely one that loves everything got to do with travelling. From planning all the fun things I am going to do/see to planning my outfits but even my luggage has to be on point! I got this River Island suitcase (picture above) in a sale they were having in October and I absolutely ADORE it, My best friend Nicole actually got it in the luggage bag style too, they were half the price so we couldn't leave without snatching them up.. even if we had to drag them around the whole city of Dublin, it was so worth it! So if you are going away for a weekend, to a festival, or on your holidays for the summer, here is some super stylish bags for your travels.

I follow love her style on Instagram and when this bag popped up that they were selling I nearly DIED. I have wanted a Louis Vuitton bag since I was literally in primary school, and I have always said I would never buy a fake one as I will be so super excited when I get my first real one..it's my 21st this year so I am definitely going to put it on my wishlist! This luggage bag is so super cheap and so stylish, looks quite big that you can fit everything into it and it even is the correct size for cabin luggage. They also have it in a black and grey check colour as well! A great steal if you ask me.

Ok ye are all probably wondering why I even added this to the blog.. the money is CRAZY. I think it is so super pretty though, Ted Baker is such an amazing designer everything is always so classy. I love the oriental bloom, the pastel colours and the rose gold detail, maybe some day!

This floral luggage bag and suitcase from River Island is to DIE for. So summery and perfect for your travels! Both bags are cabin size so you can bring them on the plane without having to pay the extra dreaded luggage fee! I fit so much stuff in my suitcase when I was in Amsterdam for 4 day's, and I am such a heavy packer.

Both of these travel luggage is from River Island again. You cannot go wrong with black and white, ever! Monochrome is the best. I love the snake skin detail on it, it makes the bag looks super expensive! I know they might seem a bit pricey, but once you invest in a good luggage piece you will have it for years.

5 City Breaks For 2017 That Won't Break The Bank!

Hello everyone, I am back with something different and that makes me so happy, travelling! I was lucky enough to have a great mom who brought me to loads of lovely places since I have been very small. I absolutely adore visiting new places, the thrill of getting to the airport, hopping on a plane and just going to explore somewhere different is just so exciting! In 2016 I went to Liverpool and Amsterdam with my two best friends Caitlin and Nicole. I had such an amazing time and I am so lucky to of met two fabulous girls in college who love to travel just as much as me. We have exciting travel plans for this year which I will be sharing once everything is finalised!

So thinking of a little get away with your friends? girlfriend? boyfriend? Well I have got you covered with some places I think would be lovely to go visit in 2017. When I go on my holidays this year I definitely will be vlogging, which I am super excited about as I loved my vlog from Amsterdam. I can always look back at that video now when I am older and remember how much fun I had.

To get fairly cheap flights my advice would be to book about 3 months in advance if not more as it is generally cheaper. For saving money on accommodation (I am a sucker for fancy hotels and I am not one for a hostel) but sometimes if you are short on cash you have to make do, and you know what maybe hostels could actually be fun, I will find out next year anyway when I am travelling Europe in the summer. So to save money on accommodation Airbnb is a fantastic website where it enables people to list or rent short-term lodging including vacation rentals, apartment rentals, home-stays, hostel beds, or hotel rooms! Airbnb has locations in 191 countries, so I am sure you will find a good deal for your trip.

How does Airbnb work??
You have to register and create an account which is free, you can search for the type of lodging you want, the location, the price and the dares. It is super simple! When I go travelling Europe next summer I will definitely be using Airbnb every night I need somewhere to stay. So many people have recommend it as it was so handy to use.

Berlin - Germany
I have actually been to Cologne in Germany but when I was much smaller, I went in December and I remember the Christmas markets were amazing over there. I would love to go back now though since I am older and explore the city of Berlin. A few people I know actually went over this year and they said that the night life is amazing over there, which is always a bonus! There is many tour boats you can go on to explore the city and it would be fabulous to go on one at night and see the city lit up. If you are going to Berlin you cannot go and not see the main touristic things the city has to offer, such as the Berlin Wall and the Eastside Gallery. There seems to be a great social, backpacker culture in Berlin and I have done some research and there looks like there is actually some really nice hostels and two of them are St.Christophers and The Circus. There is a lot of free touristic things to do in Germany if you do your research and you can definitely have a fab time and not have to spend loads of money!

Amsterdam - Netherlands
 Oh my god.. where do I even start? I visited Amsterdam in October 2016 with Caitlin and Nicole, and it was just AMAZING. Honestly it was probably one of the best if not the best holidays I have ever been on. I could write for hours about our experience. When we were there, there was a festival called AMF on, Martin Garrix, Hardwell, The Chainsmokers, Nervo, Afrojack and the DJ's like that were playing at it. If I was recommending a time when to book Amsterdam I would probably advise the end of October when the festival is on because it honestly just made our trip! We explored so much and really took advantage of what the city had to offer. We went to the Amsterdam ice bar which was so much fun, you get 3 drinks in there and a big jacket because it was absolutely BALTIC in there! If you are going to Amsterdam you will probably want to see the Red Light District and go to a coffee shop.. it's a part of the culture so obviously the girls and I went for a look about, and it was definitely a strange experience but if you are only going to Amsterdam once you are may as well get the whole experience! We also went on a canal trip at night which was lovely to see as the city was all lit up and it looked so so pretty. Caitlin loves art so we went to the Van Gogh museum which was amazing to see and the grounds of the museum were just fabulous so I took full advantage and took so many nice videos for my vlog and of course we got some photos. Flights to Amsterdam are so cheap, it is getting accommodation cheap that is the tricky part you really need to search around. As for touristic things to do in Amsterdam, there is just so many and I only mentioned a few. There is many packages where you can get deals to see the Anne Frank house, a canal tour and the Amsterdam Ice Bar etc for a cheaper price if you book altogether. Honestly it is definitely a must see City!

Budapest - Hungary
Budapest is definitely on my bucket list for next year. I have wanted to visit for so long after researching the city and seeing what is has to offer. The Sziget festival is on in Budapest every year in August and this is definitely a must go to while visiting so I would recommend going around then. The Sziget festival is one of the largest festivals in Europe. The lineups go from EDM, house and techno, rock, pop to indie! Around the site there is beaches and an amusement park. There is loads of YouTube videos online of the festival and it looks unreal! The thermal baths in Budapest is something I definitely want to do when I go over. It is said that the mineral-rich waters are medicinal and thousands of tourists going to Budapest has the baths on their to do lists, it is a really popular attraction. Flights, accommodation and food is cheap over in Budapest so it's a great city to visit on a budget!

Prague - Czech Republic
Prague is definitely on my bucket list for next year when I go interailing, a few of my friends have been and they said it is just amazing. The Old Town Square looks so gorgeous and by looking at pinterest pictures, the city at night looks top class and you can walk along the river front while the city illuminates. In Berlin they have a Berlin wall.. and in Prague they have a John Lennon's wall! you can actually go and draw your own graffiti on it which is pretty cool! To find the best city view it is said to go to the Prague castle and you will get a pretty amazing view of the whole city! From watching YouTube videos the atmosphere in Prague looks unbelievable and the streets are filled with musicians and markets. I cannot wait to take a visit!

Edinburgh - United Kingdom
One of my favourite places ever!! I literally want to move here for a while when I am older, it is such an amazing city and I was in awe when I went to visit. Flights are super cheap over to Edinburgh, the city is not too big and there is so many things to do over there. I loved Edinburgh castle and you can see the whole city from the castle itself. I wouldn't be one to be into all historic things but I am telling you, you cannot go over there and not visit it. I went on a haunted underground tour of Edinburgh's old town, it was actually super scary but our tour guide was unreal and gave us so many interesting facts about the Old Town. The Old Town has so many quirky little interesting shops and there is such beautiful architecture, it's super pretty! I definitely would recommend Edinburgh for a weekend break away, there is some unreal deals for flights and hotels out there and all you need is some spending money then!

I can't even describe how much I love travelling and exploring, I just keep thinking I am young, I don't have major responsibilities (besides college) so I need to catch up all opportunities to travel while I can. I have a few places planned for this year, and next summer I plan on going interailing for 3 weeks which I am super excited about. As much as I love buying nice things like make up and clothes.. I definitely try to save as much as I can so I can book flights with my friends and just jet off for a while! I hope you enjoyed this post xx Caoimhe
