No Straws To Grab Just The Rushing Wind

We took these photos when we were out for a walk during a rare sunny spell at the weekend. You ask for sun in Ireland and you get disgustingly humid and windy horribleness with your sun. I actually can't wait for Autumn now. We're never happy, but that's because we get four seasons in one day as the song goes. At least it wasn't raining!

Bag- Zara
Rings- Topshop
Sandals (I know you can barely see them but they were there I promise)- Clarks 
Belt- ???
Necklace, Skirt, Top and Denim Shirt- Monsoon
Bracelet- Accessorize
Lipstick- MAC Fire Sign from the Heavenly Creatures collection (worn over lip liner)
Foundation- Estée Lauder Invisible Fluid
Eye Shadow- Urban Decay Naked Palette Sin and Buck, Revlon Vintage Lace
Nails- Orly Rage

I wanted this bag from Zara for about 6 months and could never justify spending the money on it until I did some overtime in work and had a little extra money so after 6 months of looking at it online and in the store every few weeks I treated myself to it last month and I'm so happy I did because I love it! It's huge and goes with everything and is so lovely and I just love it AND I saw on tumblr still of Rachel McAdams wearing it in her new film! Okay enough about the bag... I've been mixing silver and gold together a lot lately. I love how they look together. 

I feel like I've been wearing a lot of black this summer which is very sad. Hopefully my next outfit post will be of a pretty summery dress!

  4. I have to agree with my old friend Cindy. (Hi, Cindy!) The last picture of you is smashing and would make a great profile pic. You're beautiful, Emma. Rachel McAdams is one of my favorite actresses and I'm sure she'd be envious of your lovely skin. Few women look as good as you under the scrutiny of macro closeups like these. I'm sorry to learn that you're still dealing with fickle weather. We're rain drenched and cooler here in Florida and for us that's a welcome change. Take care, dear friend!
