A Week in Outfits

Woo so I'm one week down - high five! I am seriously excited to get stuck in and to start making my mark on the company. Had some really positive meetings about my role which have me bursting with ideas..bring it on. 

As I don't have an outfit post scheduled for this week I'm going to share with you what I wore for my first week.

Fierce concentration taking these pics 

Monday - Blue Squirrel Dress from Topshop, Black Court Shoes from Clarks

Tuesday - Purple Cardigan from Warehouse, Navy Blouse from a Thailand Market, Peg legged trousers from Topshop, court shoes from Faith 

Wednesday - Purple top from Penneys, Skirt from French Connection, Pumps from Topshop, Necklace from Penneys

Thursday - Black Tee, Dunnes Stores. Trousers H&M, Court Shoes Clarks, Necklace H&M
Friday - Blouse Topshop, Trousers H&M, Court Shoes Clarks

I had a pretty standard weekend, headed out on Friday night to celebrate my first week (as you have probably gathered we will celebrate just about anything) and then I literally sat on the couch Saturday and Sunday, it was great!

A Tidy House....

So I'm three days into my new job and it's only tonight that I have had five minutes to spare - I LOVE IT! 

When I found out I had got the job I was faced with the ultimate dilemma....What am I going to wear???

The dress code is smart casual which threw a tiny spanner in the works. As I get paid at the end of the month I couldn't exactly go on a mad shopping spree so I set aside a day to do a massive clear out and a re-organisation of my wardrobe and hopefully I would have enough clothes for June.

How good did I do??? I am especially pleased with my shoes, I threw out a rake well gave them to charity and now I can actually see what I have. You know the saying a tidy house is a tidy mind..well that is certainly the case with my wardrobe I feel awesome with it so clean!

So once I could see all of my clothes and knew exactly what I have, I set about planning my outfits for the three weeks in June. And I only ended up having to buy a pair of black court shoes and then I treated myself to one new outfit (this will get a dedicated blog post as it's fab!)

Sweetiepie

Yesterday I couldn't believe it was only Wednesday, today however I feel like it can't already be Thursday - the week has flown!! And this weekend is a Bank Holiday in Ireland YAY! Although it wont be much of a Bank Holiday as I'm running as part of a relay team in the Marathon on Monday - eek!

I am really anxious about it, I know physically that I can do it, I have been training for it it's not like I've just decided to do it but at the same time I'm worried I can't do it - if that makes sense!! Sure I'll see how it goes (please cross all your limbs for me)

Today's outfit is one I wore out two Fridays ago - I tend to head out on Friday's more these days as it means I actually get a weekend plus there's just a nicer crowd out, we always head to the same spot Voodoo Rooms, it's a new(ish) club in Cork and it just kills it, great vibe, not too expensive, brilliant music and like I said a nice crowd.

I've noticed lately all I've been wearing out were black dresses so I decided to switch things up and go as colourful as possible. I had a vision in my head based around this skirt and went on the hunt to find THE perfect top. As always Zara didn't disappoint (I feel like all I wear lately is Zara and Penneys!)

For my make-up I kept it simple and nude with some brown eye shadow to add some depth to my eyes and a really light pink on my lips.

I have to admit I felt fantastic going out, I'm really starting to see my hard work in the gym pay off and for the first time ever I actually like my body - yay high fives! Who knows I might even start using the gym pool (those close to me know I just don't do pools so it would be huge if I ventured in!)

I'm going to leave you with a cute snap of me and my sisters way back when (if you follow me on instagram you'll have already seen it)

How cute were we!!
