Printed tunic (belted) €59.99

My sister recently sent me a dress she was interested in purchasing online and that was the end of that. The rest of the evening spiraled into a haze of online browsing. Here is a list of literally what I clicked in to my cyber shopping bag.

Color block ribbed dress €39.99

So if this hasn’t tickled your fancy yet then maybe this will. Here is a stunning bohemian chic patchwork dress. A bib of graduated blue and terracotta fastened by a track of pearly white buttons, this is ensemble would make the polished penny feel a million bucks.

I am not especially fond of cowboy boots so this wouldn’t be my complete look, however this easy breezy number would be dazzling in any footwear. Trainers, flats, kitten heel or 6 inch razor blades.

Want a splash of color pop to take you through to the tail end of the summer? Then this is your pick right here. A nice deep petrol blue and mustard yellow shroud will steer you with gentle confidence in to the start of those evenings right before the crispy, cool air comes-a-blowing.

I love these black and white sliders. Overkill to say the least with the color block knot dress but a winner with jeans. I’m waiting for it to be okay to wear with black tights coming in to the Autumn season.

The sliders above are both on sale for under a tenner. Now if that’s not a steal…

So, go ahead and make your pick in a click.

Fiona

So today I’ve decided to do something a little different. I’m uploading shots (all unfiltered) of random shoppers in my local shopping centre/plaza. I’m calling them random names and giving them a phoney job title, based on what their chosen outfit. Bit of fantasy, but what the hell.

Li

Li likes monochrome (evidently). She mixes high street with designer. The pleated skirt is Stella McCartney, t-shirt is New Look and trainers are Office. I faintly make out a cute Winnie the Pooh keyring.

Tara and Marc

Tara, a Sports Direct Sales Assistant (left) and her brother, Marc bringing her McDonald’s lunch. They chat about their imminent night plans ahead. Tara wears Adidas trainers and a mixture of Primark and Sports Direct. Her sibling wears a t-shirt by Ben Sherman from Debenhams and shorts are River Island.

Angela

Here’s Angela, always in a rush. I expect her outfit is brought to us by Marks & Spencer. Wedges have got to be by Aldo. Bag is DKNY at TkMax. We do like her choice in flowers though.

Roisin

Roisin originally from Beijing, now lives in Dublin. A full-time mum. All her clothes are from China: beach flip flops, asymmetric pencil skirt, De Maison oversized tee and baseball hat.

James and Garreth

Recent Arts graduates, they discuss what they will do about their Australian visas. Concentrating all their attention on baseball hats selection, they failed to take the same careful care to their shoes. I’ll bet they even paid a fortune for them! NOT a fan of the mixed, chaotic colour palette. Jack & Jones head to toe.

Happy weekend!

Dusting cobwebs off my MacBook gand digits), I’m finally coming up for air. If only I could type as fast as my eyes have fed over this past month’s Vogue, HFM or Grazia.

I have discovered, upon my Instagram flicking, this lovely pop-up advert called Ezpopsy. I’m fairly certain they’re made in China. “Sure isn’t that where most are?” says you. Anyway after some research nevertheless, you know when you click the ‘About Us’ section on a website, some more information pops up on the founder, well I’m still none the wiser. If anyone knows more about this founder can one contact me? Lets not hold that against their creativity though. Shall we?

How stunning are these dresses? I don’t know about the rest of you but I can see Grace Kelly in that bottle green, aline laced version above.

I’m thinking Gucci met Mufassa at some point in this little full length bowtie maxi. I love the symmetry which as a rule, goes against my grain, but for some reason I need not debate this stunning piece.

Two piece, pretty in pink. Hermès and Carolina Herrera have baby and this is the end product. Either way, I am a fan. Maria Buffini this would look good on you.

Ezpopsy. Worth the look.

Another horrifically long stint away from my beloved blog site, other than the daily snaps on insta and newfound discovery Boomerang taking the funniest shots of my two cute nephews!

After having watched Annie Hall for the second time yesterday, I said ‘ that’s it, that’s my next blog!’ There is literally hundreds of clips of magnificent fashion from this seventies treasure. I’ll talk you through some of my top favourites.

Small width neck scarves with a shorter sleeve crisp white blouse. And collar up, always a collar up it seems!

Doesn’t Robin just have the best style? Time to psychoanalyse her outfit! Oversized tribal print tunic with a never-ending collection of large bangles, silver , gold, copper, plastic; any which way you like! Can we discuss neck territory while we are at it….?

Allison has the coolest collection of red beads, don’t you think? Not afraid to wrap ’em round and around.

Not to mention her elegant dark dress when dabbling with her cello. On a side not, does she play the concert flute too? Shelly Duvall is rocking this pretty canary-yellow, floral wrap over dress. Currently visible on high streets paired with ankle socks and tennis shoes.

Chic crisp white, wide leg pants. Can we emphasis WIDE leg. They are every where on this cast. Both sexes.

What a gem of a movie bulging at the seams with class, candour and dare to not care. I am certainly taking a leaf out of their book to my housewarming party today.

Happy weekend!

Needless to say I have trawled through the internet tonight after the gazillion postings and tags of me by friends on Instagram. The likes of ” Spits of you” et cetera et cetera, I simply had to repost.

The above is taken from vogue.com and it depicts the soft quilted sculptures by Pierpaolo Piccioli no less for the untouchable Moncler AW 2018. We likey.

The above is particularly appropriate as my other half has decide to up and leave for the US for a seven week music tour (grr). I shall carry on as I always do and throw myself in to my beloved fashion as a means of soothing myself and my tears (gulp). I choose this wonderful creation by Kei Ninomiya, from the Japanese Noir brand ( representing Moncler’s AW18 collection) as a reflection of my feelings for tonight. Noir, dark and sublime.

Not to end on such a morbid note, I have picked this cheery little cherry number from Simone Rocha as a pinch of sugar on my latest fashion note.  Having spent some time on my travels in various Japanese cities, lolita is the first thing that springs to mine on this little number.

Any thoughts?
