I hope you’re all well darlings! As you’ll know from my social media, life has been very busy, with some great events and some poignant ones. Today I’ll go through all the details of the last few looks, which I thank you all for your lovely compliments!
Friday February 12th
For a fun night out with Filomena, Chloë and Killian, I opted to wear this Oasis red & nude dress which I hadn’t worn in almost two years, when I was a finalist in the Littlewoods Ireland and PR Slides BOPs Awards. What was great, was that when I originally wore this it was just about fitting. But when I put it on that night it zipped up so easily and was a little too big on me! I know I’ve lost weight in the past few months, and though I unintentionally have, it’s little things like this that really make me smile! We headed to The Morgan Hotel, Fleet Street where the music was insanely good, though a €15 entry is RIDICULOUS!

Friday February 26th
On this Friday, I helped out my friend with her company’s charity bake sale. As I was also going out for after work drinks with the girls, I opted for a casual but rather sexy outfit because…feck it, why not! We headed out to The Jar, Wexford Street to start and then to Camden Exchange, Camden Street for a bit of grub and more cocktails! A big well done to GCS Recruitment on their donations raised for CRY Ireland, a charity that focuses on raising awareness of the Sudden Cardiac Death in the young.
