Wardrobe Clear Out & Siopaella

Image from We Heart it

There is no better satisfaction than having a wardrobe clear out. Especially when you can earn some money from doing so. A few years ago I was a serial hoarder of clothes. I'd often wear items once, or not at all but refuse to part with them. My excuses were usually "I'll definitely wear that again" or "What if I decide I need this garment to complete a future outfit?!"

Today I thought I'd share on the blog how I clear out my wardrobe, and earn money from unwanted clothing.

Vegas Culottes & Plunge Bodysuit Outfit

I was asked to plan an outfit for Vegas, one of the top destinations on my travel wish list. When I think of Vegas I envision glam evening wear, heels and luxury handbags.  

The destination I chose to style my outfit for was Top of the World restaurant, this restaurant is located in the Stratosphere hotel one of the many great Las Vegas hotels. This restaurant actually rotates, giving the most perfect 360 degree view of Vegas. The dress code is 'business casual attire', so I went for a more 'evening wear' version of a classic blazer and culottes.

Balmain x H&M Coat & Denim Jeans Winter Outfit

Winter has truly arrived in Ireland, it's freezing. But fear not - it's the perfect excuse to start wearing heavy winter coats. This is one of my first outfit blogs in a while, so I thought I'd incorporate my Balmain x HM coat which I'm obsessed with.

I wore this outfit for a day of Christmas shopping, which went surprisingly well. I always think you've done a good job if you have 'present envy' afterwards.

Penneys / Primark Striped Faux Fur Scarf

Despite the surprisingly mild Irish Autumn / Winter we seem to be having, I'm still a big lover of faux fur. Like most fashion bloggers I have a lot of faux fur stoles, but had really been lusting after a more 'trend' orientated one. I'd seen some on Asos and Topshop but wasn't prepared to make a big spend on a trend item.

Needless to say it was a match made in heaven when my Mother purchased this Penneys / Primark scarf. I had to share it on my blog.

My Yves Saint Laurent Jewellery

It was only recently that I realised how little of my wardrobe staples were reflected on my blog. I always love to see what other fashion bloggers call their staple 'go-to' pieces, so I thought why not show you some of my own?

If you followed my blog from it's beginning in 2011, you will have noticed that my tastes have radically changed. For me its now all about comfort, practicality and of course investment pieces.

H&M x Balmain Pre Launch Dublin #BALMAINNATION

I was so excited to be invited along to the H&M x Balmain pre launch event in Dublin's H&M College Green Store. I'm a massive fan of the designer collaborations, with Isabel Marant and Alexander Wang last year being some of my favourites to date. The event took place a day before the official release of the collection on Thursday 5th November.
