Style Envy Met Gala


A little while ago the annual met gala took place and I have to say this is personally my favourite style wise when it comes to red carpet events! Outside the metropolitan museum of art fabulous ball gowns could be seen as well as tailored pieces that looked just as dressy. Kendal Jenner wore Topshop and looked amazing! Her gown was like something from a fairytale but she somehow pulled it off without looking like a meringue! Blake Lively wore a Gucci gown that looked equally stunning and fit her in all the right places. Both dresses are along the nude champaign colour scheme which I love, it always looks so classic and cheque. Rihanna and Cara Delevene both were sporting Stella Mcartney pieces and I think I have just found my favourite designer because wow, how amazing do they look!? Cara in fitted cigarette pants and a black crop could stand beside Blake and still not look under dressed. Rihannas co-ord was just perfect. It was cool and edgy but still glamorous and sophisticated. Unfortunately this post along with many others got delayed for a whole lot of reasons thrown together, mostly being we switched internet providers which completely messed up our connection! Its finally back on track now! Before whenever it was working I was crazy busy studying for exams and then I was off to Portugal! So blogging took a bit of a back seat but I shall make up for it just bare with me. All for now

My 18th Birthday!


So almost two weeks ago I turned 18 and its actually crazy how time flies! It really feel like I blinked and its gone. I'm a Paddys day baby so with my birthday being on the 17th of March I decided to have the party the night before! It was such a great night even if it did get a little bit crazy in the end but I guess that happens when you have roughly 130 people at an event! It was neon themed so I had lots of glow sticks and some neon paint, my outfit even ended up going along with the theme too! I also had a DIY photobooth with was fun! Although this post is a tad late I though I'd do it all the same to show you guys! Unfortunately I've been so busy over the past few weeks that blogging has taken a back seat but I promise to get up to scratch and I'll be doing a double post this week to make up for it! Below is what I wore the night of my party and a few of the presents I got!





                           Birthday Outfit 



You'd swear judging by what I wore that one day I went into Riverisland for a one stop shop kind of thing but I actually bought al these things at different times! My black heels are from korkys and I have theses babies for what seems like forever but the rest of the attire is all RI. The dress was €60 but the bag was €20 if I remember rightly and the necklace was around €20 as well, all quite pricey but your only 18 once right? Investing in a nice black clutch bag is never a bad idea and the statement necklace will surely become one of my staple pieces to dress up a simple outfit!





My friends got me the most thoughtful gifts! A bag full of random goodies including a birthday badge they insisted I wear and a topshop voucher so I'll be getting lots of new bits really soon! My 4 best guy friends also got me a topshop voucher aswell unknowingly, I got lots of other vouchers and dollas form all my friends and family so a serious shopping trip is in store! My favourite present would have to be the Pandora ring my nana got for me! She said she wanted to get me something I'd always have which is so sweet and also a very good idea because otherwise I'd probably spend it on food or something... or clothes but its nice to have something like that from your nana ! My amazing parentals threw me a party and got me driving lessons so hopefully after the summer I'll be on my way to getting that licence (and one day that mini cooper!) I also decide to go for my first birthday purchase and buy the River Island chunky platform heels only in peach instead of black because I thought they were more unusual seen as I already have a black pair of heels and I'm absolutely obsessed, love them so much!


                                                 My main ladies 




That's that's all for now lovelies, another post on the way! What did you do for your 18th birthday? Drop me a comment and let me know!
