The Room Tour

Hey Guys,

Today I thought I would show you a little insight into my room. My room is no way big or perfect but when we moved I said I wanted to make it somewhere I could go to relax and unwind after a day of working.



When starting it was mostly sorting out colour and picking out little pieces to match. For the walls I went with a standard white colour. From there it was deciding what kind of pieces I wanted around to make it homely and cosy.



Due to the white walls the best way to go was bright colour ornaments like flowers, candles and fairy lights.


My favourite thing is my photo frame collage pictured above. The frame itself is one I picked up from a pound shop and then got magazines and cut out my favourite pieces. Along with that there are some fun family photos. 


The lamp shade then brightens up the entire room and I find it separates between the white ceiling and walls. 

Interior is always a fun way of making your room suit your personality so might as well make it how you want. 

Speak Soon,

The Greatest Scrub?

Hey Guys,

Recently I purchased Palmers Cocoa body scrub. One thing I love trying to keep my skin as fresh as possible. Sometimes it can be hard, but once you get into a routine its just part of your normal day.




In the past couple of weeks my skin had been looking a little dull and felt a bit worse for wear. On one of my trips to Superdrug (trust me, there are many) I spotted this. Now I am a big fan of Cocoa butter moisturiser just purely because it smells amazing. This product is exactly the same. 


With its mix of crushed cocoa beans and shea butter, this palmers scrub aims to exfoliate, refine, polish, moisturise and smooth skin. I can say that that is exactly what it does. 

I am one of those people who gets a few lumps and bumps on the tops of my arms and within one use they had started to fade. My skin had never felt fresher. 


With some exfoliaters they can be a tad harsh and rough on skin but this is the exact opposite. With removing everything you need it to remove such as tan and dead skin, it is also so gentle on skin. 

If you suffer from dry skin or feel it needs a bit of a pick me up I couldn't recommend this enough. 

You can pick it up from your local superdrug store starting from around €6.78/£4.99

Stuck in a rut....

Do you ever just get in one of those moods and you just don't know how to shake it off? That's exactly how I'm feeling at the minute. Sometimes it's just one of those things that lasts for a few hours but other times its a little bit more than that.











At the minute I'm not sure where I'm going or what I'm doing. Seeing everyone around you moving up in the world and you still stuck where you started quiet awhile ago is hard. Don't get me wrong it is so so amazing to see everyone you love going places and I don't mean to sound anyway selfish but it also make you wonder what's out there for you and where are you going wrong?

I haven't written on my blog in over a year but sometimes you just need to write how your feeling down and let it out. I know this feeling isn't going to be around forever

Pearl Maria's Christening - 03-08-2014

Hey guys, 

So this Bank Holiday Weekend me and my family hiked up to Cork to see the new addition to our family be christened. 
It was such an exciting day as we haven't had a little baby in the family for 11 years! 

The day was such a great one and the whole family was in such a great mood. Pearl was such a little cutie and she couldn't have looked anymore beautiful. 

Family events mean so much to me as it's always such good fun when we get together and the christening was no exception. 

Congrats to my Uncle and Aunt for having such a precious little girl.

For my outfit I didn't want anything to out there. Just something a little classy. I was in River Island when I spotted the perfect dress. 



Dress - River Island
Shoes - New Look

Once I saw this dress I knew it had to be mine so there was no stopping me from going to the counter to purchase it. 

The day was filled with lots of food and plenty of laughs and I hope the rest of my family enjoyed it just as much as me. 

Heres a few more snaps from the day

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - 11-06-2014





(I do not take credit for these last 2 photos as they were not taken by myself)

Well Hello..
I have to say it feels a bit strange to be doing this again. It's been 3 months since I last posted on here. (Yikes!) 

So why did my blog disappear of the face of the earth? Good question, and to be honest I have no actual answer. Between getting a job and not having time and losing internet I just got used to not blogging.. 

Anyway less of the awkward 'Hi it's me I'm back..' intro, let me tell you about when me and 6 of my friends grabbed our wellies and heading out to the massive crowd of 35,000 people. (Yes you read that right.)

With plently of festivals hitting it up in irish fields during the summer, you have so many choices of which ones to attend such as longtitude and electric picnic. (A tad raging I won't be attending that one!) As soon as we heard Macklemore and Ryan Lewis would be heading to Marley Park we knew straight away we had to go. 

The day worked out perfect. The sun beaming out of the sky and 7 delighted girls. Until we arrived and it poured from the heavens. We didn't let this ruin the day though and without a care in the world walked around like drowned teletubbies, thanks to out €2 ponchos. 

The day consisted of 4 acts - Angel Haze, Danny Brown, Ellie Goulding and the duo themselves. 
Although we just missed Angel Haze and spent most of Danny Brown eating food or queueing for the bathroom we ran straight for the barrier as soon as Ellie Goulding was on. She is such a talented woman with an incredible voice and energy I can't even explain. Ellie definitely got the crowd going for the lead act. 

As soon as Macklemore hit the stage the crowd erupted and even though there were some technical difficulties this didn't stop us. The crowd belted out some of his best hits and couldn't get over how great it was to see him live! 

If you were at Marley Park for this gig you know it was nothing short of amazing and if not you should most definitely grab tickets to his next gig. 

Have you been to any festivals this summer? Let me know below!

Summer Road Trip #1 - Haunted Halls, Beaches and Lighthouses.



Hey Guys, 

The weather in Ireland has actually been so lovely the last while so Clodagh and myself took to her car and headed off on a bit of road trip. We ended up going to Loftus Hall, some beaches and Hook Lighthouse. It was so nice and relaxing and the weather was such a plus. 

Loftus hall is a mansion in Wexford that is mostly known for being haunted by the devil and a ghost. (Weird huh?) It has been closed for many years but over the last while has re-opened and holds tours every so often. We didn't actually go in for a tour but plan on doing so later this summer. 

We then headed to Hook Head Lighthouse which is just up to road from Loftus Hall. The area itself is so nice and if anyone finds themselves down in these parts it is definitely worth the visit. 

I hope do more of these road trip blogs coming into the summer so hopefuly the weather stays this nice.
