Through The Shadow Of The Evening Sun

We were lucky enough to have glorious weather in Dublin last week. I broke out a pretty dress and sandals for what I can only assume will be the last time this year if the chill today is anything to go by! It was a nice treat to have such nice weather in September but I have to admit, I am quite looking forward to getting my scarves and woollies out again!

I bought this binoculars bag with a gift voucher I won on Vixen Vintage last year and I've only gotten around to showing it to you now. I totally love it and it's surprisingly roomy. How cute is this umbrella print dress? It came into work back in February or March and I knew I wanted it straight away. It so easy to wear with the short sleeves and is the perfect length on me. 

I have some exciting news to tell you... we don't have to move! I told you yesterday about my living situation an was all set to continue the apartment search today but we got a phone call this morning that completely sorted it all out. I still can't believe it. I was beyond relieved and couldn't stop smiling all day! So thank you all for your kind words of encouragement, it really means so much to me (and Donnacha). I also received some treats in the mail today which made the day even better. I'll share some of the goodies later in the week! I feel so blessed today.

I hope you all are having a great start to your week.

PS. A very Happy Birthday to my dad!

  1. I am blessed to have a great friend like you, Emma! I couldn't be happier for you knowing that the universe gave it up and created an unexpectedly good outcome. I'm so glad you took that last picture because I never would have guessed that the pattern on the red dress is tiny umbrellas. They are so cute and the dress looks fabulous on you! In addition, your ivory skin is to die for. Don't ever change! I'm longing for a cool snap here in Florida but I don't think we'll be getting relief any time soon. Have a splendid Wednesday, dear friend Emma!

    1. I like the term Ivory skin, it's definitely better than "pale"! The weather has gotten a lot cooler this week, it's actually quite refreshing! Hope you're having a good week Tom! :)

  5. you look splendid in this get up! I really do like your bag. I dont think I've ever seen a bag designed for binoculars. Happy to hear you guys dont have to move. I am sure that's a big relief. Moving is no fun especially when its not planned. Hope you are having a lovely Thursday :)

    1. Yeah I was not looking forward to packing up all of Donnacha's DVDs! (or my clothes and accessories!) Binocular bags are the best! They're so cute, I might try find another one!
