Thursdays Outfit of the Day

Hello ladies,
Firstly I'm so sorry I haven't been updating this as much as I would like to. I am literally being suffocated from such a heavy workload. A lot has been happening in my life, particularly in the past two weeks. I suppose the main thing that happened last week that prevented me from posting was the my friend Meghan came back from England! I haven't seen her in about 2 months so any free chance to meet up with her and see her, I did! The second bit of news is that I started my thesis....It's due in 68 days, which is less than 10 weeks! Now your probably thinking I left it a bit late to start my thesis, and I suppose I did, but I have all of my readings done, it's just putting pen to paper...but I did it! And I'm 1,380 words in! 

Literally everywhere I turn in my room there's a book or journal article

I just wanted to share with you my outfit for today. I received my first ever order from asos yesterday (asos virgin) and I'm so annoyed I never bought anything before. They are amazing! I got my order in less than a week, it's free delivery and they do student discount. I bought a boyfriend tee because I love that whole baggy look at the moment. It's a size 14 because I didn't want to risk it being too small on me but I probably could have bought the 10 its that big! But I do love it, mainly because it's so comfy and long that I can literally throw on a pair of leggings and I'm good to go! 

Thursday Outfit of the Day 
 Tee:Asos
Shorts:RiverIsland
Necklace:Topshop
Tights+Hat:Penneys(Primark)

I also bought a Barry M nail polish (which I will do a review on soon) and a Yes to Carrot lip butter. 
Oh another thing I had to share with you is my amazing new necklace from Topshop. There was only one left in House of Fraser so I'm not sure whether it was old stock or what, but either way I love it. It was €24 and then with student discount it came to about €21.50. That's a lot for me to spend on a necklace but I had to have it I guess! 

What do you think of asos? Are you as fond as I am now? I'd love to hear your opinions!

Quick Update

I haven't really been keeping up to date with my blog recently, and that's mainly because I've become really hectic with college. Only four weeks in and I know I have so much to do, and I've already submitted two assignments this week. Just a quick update of how college is going. So I'm starting my 5th week on Tuesday and it's so daunting thinking about the amount of work I still have to do. Two of my other close friends are also in their final year and either only have to submit a thesis or only have exams, so I really have a lot to do to maintain my 2.1. Oh that also brings me to my exam results, I got my results back about 2 weeks ago and passed everything with all my results being in the high 50's and 60's, so I was really happy with them (apart from one or two which I thought I done better in).

It was only yesterday that I realised I should probably update my blog, so decided to show you what I wore. These are basically two of my favourite outfits at the moment because they're both so easy to wear and anyone can pull them off! My college outfit is one of my favourites and newest.

Shorts - River Island - €35

DORK T-Shirt - Topshop - €27

Tights - Penneys - €3

Hi-Tops - Bank (Liffey Valley) -€38

Accessories - Friendship Bracelet - Claires Accessories, Charm Bracelet - Newbridge (Gift)

Thursday Outfits...

My boyfriend took me for dinner last night because we didn't get to go out for Valentines Day. Last year I was so sick, he had a booked a restaurant and I ended up not being able to go, so we both stayed in mine and all I could eat was baby food. So this year we said we would wait until the week after Valentines Day and go out on a day that suited both of us. We went to the Blazing Grill in Tallaght, and I can honestly not praise this place enough! The service is amazing and the food is even better. They're usually extremely busy, so I'd recommend you reserve a table. It's kind of a casual, yet smart restaurant so I wanted to make an effort without going over the top. The outfit I wore is something I'd also wear to work or college.

Jumper - Penneys

Black "Leather" Gilet - Penneys 

Black Skinny Jeans - Penneys - €15

Tank Top - H and M €4.99

Hi-Tops - Bank - €38

Bucket Bag - Penneys - €15

Thanks for reading!

It's Back to College I Go...

Thought that I would write a little bit about my first few days back in college. This is my last ever semester (hopefully), unless I go off and do a masters. So started off at one on Monday afternoon! Needless to say the first week back is kind of pointless! We had two classes each an hour long and both options, and after hearing the briefing for each I decided I wasn't going to take them! So I should officially have Mondays off, which is going to be perfect to fit in thesis work and my jobs! And I'm going to use some of the time just to relax! After our pointless two hours in college, myself and one of the other girls went to grab food and we ended up in this cute little cafe on Aungier street called Craze. It's about a two minute walk from my college and is such a pretty little place. They only really sell pittas and salad, so if that's not your thing I wouldn't recommend it!

The selection isn't huge but I ended up choosing the hot chick pitta. It's basically Cajun chicken, sweet chilli sauce, lime mayo, rocket, peppers and onions and they give you a little side salad and pot of homemade salsa. It was so nice and it wasn't over-filling. It's a little bit on the pricey side but is definitely worth it. I ended up getting a Caramel Mocha to go when I was leaving and the total was just over €8! Not too bad really! And the Caramel Mocha was just what I needed for my drive home, even if it did spill all over me.

My Caramel Mocha was perfect for my drive home!

When we were leaving college there was obviously a promotion running for KitKat Chunky where you choose the best flavour. So we got free bars of them and of course I would vote for choc fudge. I honestly think the other flavours sound horrible! I loved the white chocolate one they had last year but unfortunately they're not as easy to obtain now!

Team Choc Fudge!

On Monday night one of my best friends sent me a picture of us all in 6th year and it was such perfect timing as I was stressing out about my finals and thesis. I t made me realise that if I got through 6th year with good enough marks (without studying) I can definitely do it this year!

The picture my best friend sent me of Aisling, Niamh and me, on our last day in 6th year.

So Tuesday came around and again it was a fairly pointless day. The daunting aspect of the next few weeks is that we will have to write a case study based around a company. It's worth 20% of our overall mark and we have to do it in groups. I'm not to nervous though because my group work really well together and we usually get good marks. Tuesday night I ended up going to the cinema to see The Impossible. I've heard a lot about it, and was told I would end up balling my eyes out. I didn't!! It was quite sad and made me contemplate what I would do in that situation but I wasn't in floods of tears (I may be a little heartless!).

Overall my first few days back in college have been fairly silly but at the same time its worrying the amount of work we have to do in such a short space of time, but I know I will get through it all...hopefully!!!
