There's A Belt Of Sun Dripping Through A Porthole

We took these outfit photos when the weather was a bit milder last month. I bought the Bow Tie from ASOS during the Summer and wanted to style a whole outfit around it. I was unsure whether I'd end up looking a bit too Western, but I think it's a really cute way to smarten up an outfit. 


LOI1 LOI5 LOI8 LOI6 LOI13 LOI7 LOI11 LOI10

Jacket- Penneys/Primark
Shirt- Monsoon (similar here)
Jeans- New Look
Shoes- ASOS Mara Leather Pointed Flat Shoes (sold out, similar here)
Hat- H&M
Bow Tie- ASOS (sold out, similar here)
Lipstick- MAC Ruby Woo

I wanted some leopard print shoes for a long time so when I saw these pointed lace up ones on ASOS I ordered them straight away. They're a great addition to an otherwise monochrome outfit like this. Unfortunately as they're faux pony skin, I can only really wear them when it's dry outside which isn't very often during an Irish Winter.

The hat from H&M was another purchase I had been thinking about for a long time. I really wanted to try out a floppy hat, again I wasn't sure how it would look on me but I really like it. It's wool too, so it's very warm.

My gorgeous haircut/bouncy blow dry is courtesy of Carolin in Preen Hair and Beauty Salon in Dublin. I've been going there for about a year now and I am always so happy when I leave. I always get people asking me who did my hair afterwards which I think is a sign that it looks great.

I hope you all are having a great Holiday season so far. I'm looking forward to the madness of Christmas in retail being over for another year and getting to spend time with my family and friends. What's your favourite thing about this time of year?

  1. Hi, Emma!

    You have never looked better, dear friend, and that includes clothes, make-up and hair style! My favorite thing about this time of year is the opportunity to touch base with old friends like you and let them know they are valued. Life can dish out lots of pain and misery but the ongoing thread of a genuine friendship is comforting. I am thankful to have you as a part of my life year after year.

    Happy holidays to you and your family, dear friend Emma!
