This week's post is all about my fashion faves from the highly anticipated NYFW.  This is a time for designers to showcase all their designs and creations on a catwalk to the fashion industry and where else would be the perfect place only the biggest city for high-end Fashion- New York. In this piece I will be chatting all my favourite looks from one of the biggest week's in fashion, this includes looks on-off the catwalk. Casual Looks- This year's NYFW focused heavily on the casual side of Fashion, which I was very pleased to see because this means we are ourselves can try and emulate some of the looks that featured throughout the week. This included Oversized tops and jumpers, one of my favourite looks was from hot-trot model Gigi Hadid. She really does make causal look effortlessly cool by pairing the vibrant pink jumper with blue slouch jeans and sparkly loafers, really quirky and well put together by the model.

Dua Lipa - Making 'New Rules' in the Fashion World

Image
Welcome back! I am so proud of myself for  writing another blogpost less than a week since the last one 'crazy'. My goal for this college year is to be consistent with everything including the activity on my blog. So with that hopefully I will be posting at least once a week in the coming months wish me luck! Dua Lipa has literally taken the world by storm since her massive hit 'New Rules' dropped a couple f of months ago. The song to some degree is undoubtedly relatable to the female population of this world, this has made her one of the biggest role models for most of us because the lyrics are extremely identifiable and catchy to us listeners. For me, she hasn't just caught my eye through her clever songwriting and amazing singing voice but also through her unique sense of style on and off stage. She wears clothes that stand out from your typical bubblegum popstar. I am absolutely obsessed with her performance outfits, they always have that element of edg...

Hey and welcome back to my blog, it has been a long time since I haven't posted on here but I am using the excuse of being busy again because for me this summer has been incredibly hectic with work and I never had the chance to sit down and focus on the content I wanted to share on this platform. I am heading back to college in 2 weeks and I have promised myself that I am going to post on my every week because I miss it and I want to try and expand my blog this year.

| SKINCARE ROUTINE |

Image
Hey and welcome back to my blog! In today's blogpost I am talking about all things skincare related, from a young age I have been using skincare on a regular basis. It has always been part of my daily routine. I think it is extremely important to look after your skin and it is really easy to do as there are many affordable products in the market. I want to talk about the products I love and how they are easy and gentle to use on the skin everyday. Nivea Products: From the start of my teenage years I have always used some sort of Nivea skincare. My mam has always used it and she advised me to look after my skin from a young age. I have tried many types of moisturers from this well known brand and now I use the 'Nivea Essentials' Day cream. It is perfect for using as a base for applying makeup or if you just want hydrated skin all day this is the best moisturer for me because my skin type is normal but can sometimes be dry around my  nose and this helps combat this a...

Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog, it has been a considerable amount of time since I have posted on this platform and today I want to talk about the topic of 'Mental Health' This topic can sometimes be the 'elephant' in the room for some people but I am so sick of people treating our mental health as a joke. I know myself I have struggled with my own Mental Health with severe anxiety in school where it came to stage of not wanting to leave my bed cause I was so nervous of what the day would bring. Now though since transitioning into college I have adapted a better mindset to life and try to be as positive as I can when it comes dealing with exam stress and overall life stresses that used to get me down previously. At some point in everyone's life qw struggle with mental health issues whether its body image, depression or anxiety we all have our own insecurities.

- NYX MAKE-UP REVIEW -

Image
Hey everyone and welcome back to another post on my blog. In today's post I am going to be reviewing the very popular make-up brand NYX. This brand has became massive in Ireland in the past couple of years and I decided I would try some of their products to see if they are worth the hype and the money. NYX is an american brand which has became very popular because of it's exposure by famous you tubers, and that's how I got to know the brand and I would definitely recommend trying at least one of their products as they are usually good quality while also having a great price range. I have been using these series of make-up products for the last couple of months and many of them have became a favourite to use when doing my make-up regularly. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream I am obsessed with trying different types of liquid lipsticks and I heard good reviews from other bloggers and you tubers about their  Soft Matte Lip creams. When I first applied this product it was str...
