Hi Guys! I’m so excited to share todays outfit post with you all, Edelle and I shot it this weekend during the snow-pocalypse here in New York! While I was home for Christmas, I did a little too much shopping on the high street. It’s funny actually, so many people think NYC is the best place in the world to come shopping, and it is in many respects because of the variety available and huge number of stores. But personally, for the stores and brands that I love, it actually makes a lot more sense for me to shop in Ireland! Topshop, Zara and River Island are literally a fraction of the price compared to here so I definitely used that as an excuse to go a little crazy while I was there! I picked up this leopard print coat in the Zara winter sale and even though it’s a little out there, I kind of love it! Also snagged these patent leather Topshop boots for less than 40 squids and I couldn’t be more obsessed with them! They’re perfect for wearing when it’s raining because they’re waterproof!

Happy Sunday Everyone! I’m so happy the first week back post Christmas is finally behind us! It’s always quite an adjustment settling back into a normal routine after being on such a wonderful holiday but thankfully this week went off without a hiccup! If you follow me on snapchat (michaelabear1), you’ll have seen we had a snow day here in New York yesterday and it was SO much fun! It was my first time seeing NYC completely covered in snow and everything looked even more beautiful than usual! Anywho, here are some of my favorite things I came across on the interwebs this week!

Happy New Year Lovelies! I know it’s the second of January already and most bloggers have done their typical “Year in Review” highlights at this point, but I was trying my best to take a mini break from the internet while I was at home for Christmas! I think when it comes to New Years, people tend to be very hard on themselves, almost putting down the work they did in the previous year! I totally get the whole “New Year, New You” vibe and that it is a great chance for a fresh start, but I also feel like it’s the perfect time to look back on what you did achieve in the previous year! With that in mind, I wanted to share 5 things that I’m proud of from 2016 and my hopes for 2017!

Hi from a very chilled out and relaxed Ireland! Guys, when I say I couldn’t be happier to be home I literally mean it so much. It’s been four days of chilling out on my couch, going for walks along Galway Bay and a whole lot of snapchatting my dogs (go see at michaelabear1 if you don’t believe me!) I’m working from home until Wednesday so at the moment, I’m just hanging out at home being glued to my laptop answering emails and all of that fun stuff but I’m really looking forward to unplugging for a couple of days once I’m finished! Because I work in social media, I feel like my head is glued to the internet 24/7, including weekends so I’m very mindful of trying to take sometime and do a little bit of an internet detox over Christmas weekend! I always look at my time home during Christmas as a chance to recharge and find the energy to tackle another year of New York Hustle!
