My Top Picks From Urban Outfitters (Europe)

Hey guys, so as I said I would in my last post, I am showing you my top picks from Urban Outfitters (Europe). I don't know if would ever buy any of these because they are super, super expensive. But if we were living in a dream world and money was no object, then this would be the items that I would choose from the new collections at Urban Outfitters. (If you are from the US, check out my top picks from Urban Outfitters from the US site which has different collections.)

1. Suede Patch Jumper (€90)
I love this jumper. Living in Ireland, it is really annoying when you find a nice top, but you end up having to cover it up with a hoody anyway because it's so cold outside, so I really love nice sweaters or jumpers that keep you warm and look great at same time. This one is so pretty, and I just love the elbow patches.

I love these jeans because they remind me of the 90s. They're quite different from what you usually see but I love how cool and relaxed they are. This is the item that I would be most likely to buy from this post but they shouldn't be €85. I would gladly but them at around the €40 mark but I just couldn't justify €85 on a pair of jeans. 

This cardigan is perfect for the winter months.I really love the length and how it looks on the model, but I can't help feeling that I would be swallowed by it. I would definitely have to try it on before buying it, but I love the knit design and think that I would get a lot of wear out of it during the autumn and winter months. 

4. Bambi 42 Tote Bag (€55)
This bag with Bambi all over it is so cute. One thing that I love about this bag is that it's not too overly cute which it could have been. It has a sort of urban edge to it with the 42 print. It's also pretty inexpensive compared to other Urban Outfitter products which is great because it's not uncommon for a bag to be €50.

Another sweatshirt for the autumn and winter months. I really love the sheer detail on it that really differentiates it and makes it a bit more elegant than other sweatshirts. Have you noticed the price tag however? It's €290!! That is crazy money for a sweatshirt. I could never actually pay that much for it.

Anyway, crazy prices aside, I hope you liked this blog post, and that it helped you to see some of the new collection from Urban Outfitters (europe site). What do you think of Urban Outfitters? Is it one of your favourite shops or do you think they are very overrated? Leave a comment below.

My Top Picks From Urban Outfitters


Hey guys, today I'm sharing my top picks from the "new in" section of the Urban Outfitters website with you all. Urban Outfitters has a lot of really cool clothes which are always way too expensive for me to actually buy... but a girl can dream :P The bad news for my readers from Europe is that most of these are only available from the US website. I didn't realize this at first but I figured that since a lot of my readers are from the US that I would still post this, but I will do another one from their Europe site later in the week so hopefully nobody is missing out. Anyway, it's still interesting to see what kind of cool clothes the US website has to offer. So here are my top 5 items of the new collection in Urban Outfitters US.

1. Hooded Parka Jacket ($169)
This jacket looks so comfy and warm. I love it! It has this really amazing hood that you can't see in the picture but make sure to click on the link above to see it. I just think that this jacket is so gorgeous and unique for the winter months.

2. Black Heeled Boots ($130)
I love ankle boots and these ones are very versatile; they could be worn as either casual or dressy depending on what you wore them with. The perfect staple for anyone's wardrobe.

3. Blue Striped Fuzzy Cardigan ($89)
This cardigan just looks like the most fuzziest, coziest item of clothing in existence, so perfect for winter, especially at Christmas time. I can see this worn really casually with jeans or quite dressy with a skirt, boots and a nice top. Love it, love it, love it!!

4. Maxi Button-Down Shirt ($79)
This is a item that I'm not sure I would wear but I just loved the idea of it, and I have never seen anything like it before. A great way to look casual and stand out a the same time!

5. Lace Maxi Skirt ($79)
This skirt is really beautiful but I wouldn't wear it with the clothes that it is paired with in the picture. I would wear it with heels, a nice top and a gold statement necklace on a night out, because I think that it would really make you stand out and look stunning.

I hope you liked this post. If you did please give it a like on Bloglovin or a +1 on Google Plus. Which is your favourite of the items above? Do you shop at Urban Outfitters? Leave a comment below.

Look Book/ London Clothes Haul

Hey guys, so about a month ago I went to London and I bought some new clothes. I said in my London blog post at the time that I would make sure to do a haul of it or a look book. I ended up deciding to do a mixture of both. I have never done a look book before but it was really fun to do. I loved picking the locations for each shot and showing off my new clothes. I definitely want to do more of these in the future so let me know if it is something you would like to see. Thanks so much to my friend Aoife for taking all the pictures and making it so much fun to do :)

Basically I just created three different looks that you could wear with the same leather leggings. (Any of the items that are still available online will be linked below.)
So here is my look book/London haul: 

Look 1:
:

Peplum Jacket: £59.99 Zara (€69.95)
Top: €2:50 Camden Market
Leather Look Leggings: £30 Urban Outfitters  (€36)

Shoes: €40 Zara (previously bought)

Look 2:

Jumper : €10 Camden Market
Same leather leggings for Urban Outfitters

London Baby!!

Hey guys, as you probably already know from my previous posts, I went to London for a week. I love London, it is one of my favourite places in the world. I went with a friend last Saturday by bus from Paris. We left at like eleven Saturday night and arrived around half seven in the morning on Sunday (including the time difference and after the clocks went back and hour) so we were travelling for a very long time. 

We spent most of the week shopping so I have a few hauls coming up in the next week :) The one I'm most excited about is my Lush haul. I've never been to Lush before because there is none where I live so we had to make sure to find a Lush store when we were in London. The store was amazing, I could have spent a couple of hours there, looking at all the amazing soaps and massage bars and smelling everything. I didn't go too mad though, I only got a couple of things. I had to leave somethings behind because I knew if I bought too much that I wouldn't be able to close my suitcase going home :( but I will make sure to get them the next time I'm in London (or I might even order some online). I also got some clothes in Camden Market, Zara and Urban Outfitters that I will make sure to show you soon, whether it's in a haul post or in some sort of look book/OOTD. 

One thing that I did in London that I didn't get to do the last time I was there, was to go see platform 9 3/4s from Harry Potter in Kings Cross Station. It was really funny trying to pretend I was running through the wall, which you can probably see from the picture that I wasn't really good at it and it looks more like I was casually strolling through the wall :P I love Harry Potter so this was a must see for me in London especially since the last time I was there it was blocked off due to construction work so I couldn't see it. 
I went to Camden Market, which is probably not a good idea if you're not trying to spend a lot of money. I bought some clothes there and a cool nail printing set that I'll make sure to do a blog post about in the future, that makes nail art really simple to do. I also got a small airbrush tattoo of the Batman symbol on my wrist there because I love Batman and I wanted to see what a tattoo on my wrist would be like in case I ever wanted to get one in the future. It's really cute and small and will fade after a couple of days but it was only £2 so I thought why not :)
We didn't really do anything touristy until the last day when we had ran out of money from too much shopping :P so we went to The National History Museum, The Science Museum and Victoria & Albert Museum (which had a really cool exhibit of fashion through the ages) because they were all free. We quickly found out that we aren't very touristy people though as the crowds were really annoying and we didn't stay in each museum very long because of it.

I had a really good time in London and it was great to have a break from everything being in french for a while even though all the friends we made over there happened to be french, go figure :P I love London, and I can't wait to go back there again :) I hope you liked this post.
