OOTD: River Island x Office
So here's today outfit, I'm crazy about tartan and thought the collar detail on this River Island dress was to die for. To make it look a lil less like a school uniform, summer bay high anybody? I teamed it with black fishnet tights, chunky cut out buckle boots from Office and a cute leatherette bow barrette from HM

Vertigo Vintage
First off, massive apologies my recent lack of posting, I've been moving house which has meant no internet!!
A couple of weeks ago I styled a shoot for Vertigo Vintage, an amazing vintage store in the Dublin area! Vertigo Vintage is truly unique, offering a one to one shopping experience with Vintage Vixen Maeve Brady! Maeve, who hand picks Vertigo VIntage's entire collection, will personally come to your home to help you find the perfect piece to add to your wardrobe.
I was lucky enough to work with some of the best Ireland has to offer for the shoot. Up and coming Irish photographer Jason McCarthy (you can find more of his work on facebook and tumblr) captured some beautiful moments.While Hair and Make Up on the day was left in the very capable hand of the amazing Aislinn Trodden of Buddha Head, Drogheda. Aislinn has been hairdressing since she was 16 and is a brand ambassador for TIGI Ireland!
Cant finish off with out a special mention to our stunning model, Emily!Who happily hopped over ditch's and changed in a cow shed and above all rocked it on the day!
Enjoy

The editorial, aptly entitled The Origin of Monsters, was a collaboration Tim Walker and feature the queen of androgyny, Kristen McMenamy.

Style Stalker-Ruth
Ruth was one of many girls to stop by my rail on Saturday at the Closet Clear Out to pick up some bits and pieces. I loved her just thrown together look! Her outfit choice was comfortable, practical as well as stylish. Her oversized vintage cardi is perfect for wrapping up on a chilly march morning, teamed with super cute lace shorts and vans makes it the perfect outfit for wandering round the city doing a spot of shopping. Her fab oversized silver handbag made a very chic shopping bag, perfect for carting home all her lovely new purchases.
Ruth Wears:
Cardigan -Vintage
Stripe Jumper-H&M
Lace Shorts-H&M
Vans- Office
Style Stalker: Sarah
Sarah was one of many lovely ladies selling her pre-loved clothes at Saturday's Closet Clear Out in Andrews Lane Theater. Now I'm a sucker for a top knot and some lippy so I just had to take a quick snap of her look! Dressed head to toe in black, Sarah added a subtle splash of colour with hot pink cuffs on her beautiful cropped leather jacket. And for an extra kick of colour she matched her lips in a similarly lovely shade of pink. Her lace paneled maxi was "years old" but is a wardrobe staple, easy to wear, can be styled in so many ways and above all comfy for a long days selling! Love it
Sarah is Wearing:
Leather Jacket- DKNY
Maxi Dress-Topshop
Boots-Penny's
Headscarf(tied around top knot)-Topshop
