OOTD | Summer Nights

Seems like I am doing quite a few of this style posts recently. I enjoy writing them and showing you guys what we are wearing! 

So we had a little night out just to mark the first night 'officially' of summer time. Anna only finished college this week so we thought it was a good idea to have a little night out for that, plus a couple of our friends are off on holidays now soon so it seemed like the perfect idea to all go on a night out together before we parted ways, even if it is only for a week or two! Any excuse was welcome really..

So even though it is summer, and we seem to do nothing but talk about colour and how much we love colour we both wore quite 'colourless' outfits for our first summer night out! 

Anna

High Neck Top - Primark

Monochrome Skirt - River Island

Lauren

Lace Top - Topshop

Denim Skirt - New Look

Leopard Blazer - River Island

Skater skirts are a really great thing to have in your wardrobe! They are so versatile and easy for anyone to pull off. They can really be worn at night time or during the day, even with tights. We both find the style quite flattering and love to mix and match them for different days/nights out.

Seeing as we did go quite muted with colours, we both added a pop using lipsticks!

Anna wore Maybelline 'Neon Red' and I wore Mac 'Up the Amp'

I love nights out in summer, it is so easy to be experimental with lipsticks, clothes, shoes etc. You never really have to worry too much about colours. Even if you feel you don't have enough colour it is so simple to add little splashes of colour somewhere.

Overall, we had a really enjoyable night out together and it was a really great start to the summer months.

OOTD | BBQ

Another little outfit of the day for you. Weather has been so good recently (as I have probably mentioned quite a bit) so I have been trying to take complete advantage and wear as much colour and summery clothes as I could for this brief period! 

Trousers - Boohoo.com

Baggy shirt - Primark

I bought these trousers a while back online. I fell in love with them online but when they arrived they were a lot brighter than they had looked on the website, which at the time, I wasn't very happy about. But me being me, I left it too long to return them, however I am so glad I didn't! I really love them now, I felt so summery in this outfit and really loved it.

I wore this outfit to a BBQ and it was perfect because, it was a lot cooler in the evening time so I was still quite summery but managed to keep warm outside! I really love the print of these trousers and the whole bagginess of them. The mixture of colours, leave them really easy to mix and match with different items. I chose to wear these with a bright orange top as that is a colour I am really loving at the minute but they would also be nice with a plain white shirt to sort of tone it down a little bit. 

As the whole outfit was so bright and colour I didn't want to make it too much of an eyesore so I kept my hair and jewellery quite simple. I tied my hair up in just a messy ponytail and wore a simple 3 tiered necklace for Topshop. The blue ring I wore is also from Topshop as well as the spiked ring. The love heart ring, which I mentioned in my OOTD | Summers Here is from River Island. I wore my Maybelline 'Neon Red' lipstick as well, which is more of a deep orange colour and really liked it with the entire outfit.

OOTD | Summers Here

So glad we are finally getting summery weather and can start wearing shorts,dresses,skirts and all those without having to layer up with tights! This seems to happen every year in Ireland whenever the Leaving Cert starts, so it is unfortunate for those sitting exams, as I very well know (best of luck to everyone!) but it is great for the rest of us who get to take advantage. This is just a post on my outfit for this beautiful day!

Mullet Skirt - Forever 21

White Shirt - Forever 21

Paisley Kimono - Boohoo.com

I love this kimono so much it is definitely one of my favourites from my summer wardrobe! I bought this around August/September last year I think it was, so summer was pretty much over whenever it arrived. It has such lightweight material and sits so loosely, perfect for beach and also for anyone who likes to be slightly more covered up even on days like this as it suits really any shape! I love the bright colours and print of it as well, it really completes the outfit!

Also, some of my accessories for today

Nails - Gosh 'Hot Coral'

Watch - River Island

Bracelets - Pilgrim

Studded Shoes - Primark

Love Heart Ring - River Island (only 2euro)

White Ring - Miss Selfridge

Anyone else taking advantage of the good weather? What's everyones plans, any exciting summer holidays ahead?

Just a quick post on my outfit for the day ♥

White shirt - Primark

Orange blazer - Primark

Patterned shorts - River Island

I bought these shorts last summer and I have been in love with them since! I find them so easy to wear either during the day or even a night out. Even though the colours and pattern are quite strong it is so easy to match them with different items in my wardrobe!
