My latest prairie dress fix, I hope I snap out of this obsession soon because I can't really afford it!
Hoping to be able to take the neckline down and bit and pin it open somehow, gotta show off the collar bone when yer hiding nearly everything else
Found out it will only cost 5 euro in the vintage shop in Cork city (near north main st) to get my other dresses taken up in case anyone needs it done! Very good value compared to the guy on Washington st everyone goes to. About 23 euro with postage from Etsy 0 -

Yeah but you'll have a fine collection of prairie dresses in the wardrobe!!
Haha, I totally agree about showing the collarbone! I'm usually always covered up on top and when I'm not wearing one of my beloved button ups I get a comment on the cleavage from friends who forget that I actually possess one :P
You look gorgeous in the latest WIWT, I think its my favourite look on you so far, red is great on you.
I'm currently trying to find the perfect reasonably priced (read: worth its money, not marked up because its 'vintage') 1960s boucle coat. Many hours thrawling etsy and ebay have proved fruitless as they're either xs or L or XL

These but in a nude colour. I already have them in this colour and they are by far the most comfortable pair of heels I own.
I got the navy ones last week and wore them to a wedding on Friday. Most comfortable pair of shoes EVER!!! Might be getting a few more pairs 0 -

Aw thanks hun! The collection is certainly building up now alright
Ya the boyf loves that gunne on me, I think because it's red (his favourite colour) and a bit revealing up top but still all long and floaty and girlie. He's a bit of a wierd one that way, LOVES maxi dresses on women. I wasn't 100% sure of it initially but it's growing on me loads lately, red isn't a colour I wear very often really. I'm kinda going through a powder blue phase these days. Be sure and let me know if you find a coat, I'll keep an eye out for you!
Oh got some cool little bits in the charity shops, namely 3 pairs of shoes (for a whopping 9euros altogether) and a lovely little mirror for 50cent. I love the first pair of black ones especially really lovely old fashioned design and super comfy. Apologies for the crappy pics feeling lazy and spent way too long online already today revamping the blog.
I also got an amazing black and red plaid 50's style day dress too for 6euro, but I'll save that for an outfit post sometime.0 -

Got the lace! Now I just need to find a way to preserve my modesty and not look naked :S

@Sapsparrow: Those shoes are amazing! Wheres this charity shop? Sounds way better than anyone of the crap ones I ever go to, its just granny clothes!0 -

I'm in Sligo and the pickings aren't great but I've found a handful of nice things, the trick is to go in every couple of weeks and have a good route through the rails of size 18 granny shirts because the stock is always been changed weekly. When I was in Dublin I started off in Ranelagh and worked my way down to Georges St.
I'm addicted to charity shopping now
Sapsorrow - i love the first pair of shoes! And the red dress is a dream, sexy but demure in equal measure, the right side of sexy! I'm with-holding from buying shoes at the moment. I bought a pair of ray-bans from ebay for $100 but I don't think they suit me! I just want to find the perfect pair of glasses that hark back to better times 0 -

These are amazing futurecrook, i've been looking for shoes like them. Where did you get them??
My latest purchase was a gorgeous floral dress from La Senza which is nice enough to wear outside. It's not on the website anymore, but it's by no means see through or risky for every day wear! I love it
I got them in Schuh. They're really comfy. Wore them out for my birthday and was dancing away all night and didn't have any sore feet the next day. 0 -
Got these two tops in H&M in Liffey Valley yesterday for €6.95 each. I love them, they are gorgeous on. They look nicer on than they do in the photos.

Nice tights... where did you buy? 0 -
Some nice nail varnish shades from Catrice - both trying to copy shades from Chanel. I love the taupe shade - it's really nice on.
I have both of these colours (as well as many.. many.. more I
nailpolish!), the taupe is fantastic! The green looks wicked on feet too! Rather good quality considering you're paying less than €3 a bottle, easily would get 3+ days without chipping. Only thing is I find you need 3 coats to get a decent colour out of them! LOVE the packaging! 0 -

Bought these shoes a while back for work/interviews, but they are just so amazingly comfortable that I walked about 10km in them last weekend (honest to god, I just kept going and my legs didn't feel tired at all!). One of the best investments in life are good quality shoes.
The dress I bought last week for a thing I'm going to, just not sure what shoes to wear, because I only have high black old fashioned lace ups handy right now..or flip flops Had to do some stitching with the dress as well, didn't fit super but i loved the print and I'm such a sucker for mesh underskirts!
