Weekend in London.

I'm just back from the most fantastic trip to London! Had so much fun! It was a weekend filled with shopping, coffee drinking, museum/gallery trips, clubbing and hangovers. All a very good combination!
During a trip to the Tate Modern I fell in love with an exhibition of photo's from Bruce Davidson. One of his major works "Subway" is on show in the Tate and I was completely mesmerized by it. It is a series of photos taken on the NY Subway in the 1980's. This image was my favourite:
He has an amazing body of work which you can see here.

A/W Wishlist

Even though the sun is blasting at the moment, I still can't wait for it to cool down a bit. Autumn/Winter are my favourite seasons and I'm looking forward to being dressed in warmer clothes.
I've made a few resolutions though:
1. Wear less black and more navy.
2. Actually wear the boots that I buy and lock away my pumps.
3. Take advantage of the weekends (I'm in a lab coat during the week so all I wear is jeans and tshirts)
4. No more Uggs.
5. And finally, do some outfit posts!

I can't wait to get my hands on the aviator leather jacket. It's from Oasis and I'm hoping to pick it up when I'm in London next weekend.

Decades..


This weekend in Cork is the Decades Festival! Every pub and club have picked a decade to celebrate! My friends and I have decided to go 20's on Saturday night! So I have to to root out my flapper dress and corsage headband! My work buddies are also heading to the 80's night tomorrow night so I reckon I'll be popping along to that too. Can't beat 80's music!

If anybody is in Cork this weekend check out http://www.decadesfestivalcork.ie/ for more information!

Worst Blogger Ever..

I actually am the worst blogger ever. I'm so sorry to those who click onto my page and see the same post that's been there for the last 2 weeks. Finding the time to blog is near impossible at the moment. The only time I get to blog is at weekends and even then I'm either away or too hungover to type! :) So I'm going to make the month of August catch up on blogging month. I should have plenty to blog about too as I'm going to London and New York.

London was such a spur of the moment booking. I was on Perez one day at work and he had posted about Whoopi Goldberg starring in Sister Act the musical. I mentioned it around the office and in about ten minutes 3 of us were booked to go! Can't wait!

First thing I'll be doing in London is going to Topshop to buy these babies! Amazing!!

More A/W...

When I saw the Marc by Marc Jacobs A/W '10 show back in February I was really disappointed. But I've had another look and I've changed my mind. Maybe it was looking at winter clothes coming into the spring that was the problem. Anywho here are a few of my favourites and inspiration for my winter wardrobe!

Top of my List..

A sheepskin coat...


Burberry Prorsum

H&M

I love winter. I love being cosy. I love hats, scarves and gloves. My heart skipped a beat today when I went onto to Topshop.com to see that everything in their "new in" section was A/W! Top of my list this year is a sheepskin aviator style coat featured by Burberry Prorsum. H&M have a lovely one in their lookbook but I presume copies will be all over the high street. It's good to see a completely new style taking over. My mum also just told me she had a gorgeous sheepskin coat when she was my age. I'm currently not talking to her for throwing it away!! :)

Best Dressed..

Brittany Snow has got it spot on in my opinion.
I'm still not over my love of abstract printed trousers. I'm very annoyed that I never bought the leopard print hareems that I lusted over a while back! I'm also on the search for the perfect pair of nude pumps since Metrochica did a post on them, loving her "If you wear one thing this week" posts.

Coming back to blogging slowly but surely.
