Recently all I’ve been reading in magazines and on some of my favourite blogs is how this piece and this piece are so “on trend” at the moment! I have to be honest, I’m really not into buying something just because everyone else is wearing it. When I go shopping I’m all about buying key pieces for your wardrobe that can be worn again and again in different ways. This leather skirt that I purchased in H&M last year is just that piece. This is probably my third outfit post that I’ve worn it in and yet it looks different in each look. We took these pictures in Galway over the weekend, you really can’t beat it when the sun is shining and you don’t have to wear a hundred layers!

Movies: I’ve seen some great movies over the past few weeks. Firstly I finally got around to watching Labour Day with Kate Winslet. My Mom has been recommending it for months and with good reason. Its a lovely story about a Mother and Son and an unexpected guest who is a very handsome criminal! Very sweet! I also really enjoyed Love Rosie with the uber babe Lilly Collins (major eyebrow envy). This was definitely the cutest movie I have seen in a long time! All about a first love, babies and growing up!

Eating: Lately I’ve been making a huge effort to teach myself how to cook before I move to New York. I’m terribly lazy when it comes to cooking but recently I’ve been making some Quinoa dishes. Quinoa is a really great alternative to pasta, rice and potatoes as its a lot healthier because of its high protein content. Its super easy to make and goes with everything! I like to make mine with chicken and broccoli.

Loving: I’ve definitely mentioned this product in a previous post but I am obsessed with my Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze and Glow. Its a bronzer and highlighter compact and I swear anytime I wear it people compliment my skin! It literally makes you glow!

Craving: A Self Portrait dress. You guys may have seen on my Instagram lately that I am seriously lusting after one of these beautiful dresses. They have gorgeous lace detailing and clever sheer panels that make the perfect dress to wear to lunch during the day and to a cocktail party at night! Wish I had the moolah and an occasion to have an excuse to buy one.

Binge Watching: Its no secret that my shows on Netflix bring me too much joy! I recently finished watching the sweetest family show called Parenthood and I have to say when I watched the last episode there was a void in my life for a good week. Its filled with happy and sad storylines and great characters! I promise you will be hooked. Then I also enjoyed watching the new Netflix series called Bloodline starring my favourite Coach Taylor from Friday Night Lights. Im actually embarrassed to say I watched the whole season this weekend, well not too embarrassed because I’m sick in bed at the moment but I promise you guys will be addicted too!

Reading: I’ve literally just started reading “The Girl on the Train” this week and so far I’m really enjoying it. Its about a girl who gets on the same train at the same time on her way to work every day and the train passes a house and a family who the girl longs to know! I’m really not making it sound great but it really is a good read!

So thats everything Im currently getting up to! I love hearing what you guys are loving at the moment too so please do share your current obsessions with me!

 This weekend I had a lovely Mothers Day with my family.  We went out for a delicious meal and came home where we ate lots of cake! My Mama Bear has always been a stylish lady and I am forever stealing clothes from her wardrobe. It was quite funny actually when we were getting dressed to go out for dinner, we unintentionally dressed in really similar outfits and even in the same colours. She definitely has been an influence on my style throughout the years! Like mother like daughter, we both love our oversized sweaters, big sunglasses and designer bags. I picked these pants up in Penney’s last week. They are definitely something a little different for me but I really was drawn to the monochrome print and thought it would be nice to mix it up for a change! Im also super happy that the weather has brightened up enough for me to whip out my hot pink Kate Spade bag!

Happy Weekend Everyone! I’ve been enjoying the sunshine over the past few days and I couldn’t be happier that Spring seems to be in full swing here in Galway. Everyone seems to be much happier when the weather is a little brighter! Here are some fun things I came across on the interweb over the week!
