Reflection






It's been a little too long since my last post, nevermind the last time I actually got to go out and shoot! So happy that I finally got around to it, and I'm feeling more enthusiastic about blogging again - Yay!
I took a little trip to the sea front in Clontarf (Dublin), which is so beautiful, and it just seemed like the right place to take some shots. 




The past few weeks have been a bit strange and out of the ordinary for me for many different reasons. As such, I have been really focusing on living life to the full, and improving on every aspect of everyday. From career planning to exercising, from rejuvenating stifled passions to embarking upon new and exciting adventures, and from enjoying the simple things to leading a happy day everyday, the last few weeks have really brought a new perspective for me. 




For the past four years (at least!) I've always been a 'go, go, go!' type person. Not one to take an extended break or much downtime. That is until now. Haven taking a month off to rest, to relax, to reassess and to rejuvenate, I can see now how time really is a healer, and I am feeling much the better of it! 





On that note, I am looking forward to what is in store with enthusiasm, anticipation, excitement and an open mind. Life is for living, as the saying goes - I hear that!

The Lust List: Lace Bralette















(Images via Pinterest)

The delight is in the details sometimes. 
That unexpected twist, that final finishing touch, that cherry on top of the cake, that lil sumthin' nobody saw coming, all make an average rigout stand out from the crowd. 

Right now I'm lusting after the lace bralette. The perfect alternative to your regular underwear of choice, the bralette is comfortable, cute and subtly sexy. But the lace bralette goes beyond the functional realms of being a substitute for your everyday bra! 

It can add subtle detailing to that 'ordinary' outfit and set it apart. It can take your latest instagram post from 5 likes to 45 like just like that! It adds a touch of magic! And if we can't rely on a little magic to get us through the day, then guuuurl, you need to get yourself one of these!!

Want to know the best part? There are loads of bralette styles to choose from - winning! 
Multi-straps, all sorts of back detailing, a multitude of colour ways - you'll be hooked! 

Pop it under your trusty every day tee, allowing the strap detail or the pretty lace edging to peep out, layer on the dainty necklaces, and your outfit will kick some serious outfit ass!

Done and done!
