Outfit Catch Up | Trip to Tipp

I've a few outfits to share and I was also down in Tipperary (including a visit to my favourite Penneys/Primark in Limerick) so I thought I'd do a quick catch up post to fill you in on both.

Starting with one outfit from Tipp - a cosy combo I wore into Limerick city on Tuesday. You'll have seen the leopard coat on this blog post. It's turned out to be a fab buy. I will say that it's a bit ball-y under the arms but it's not an expensive fabric and the print means it's not particularly noticeable:

Coat - Topshop from this blog post

Black Jeans - Selected Femme (preloved from DejaVu)

Boots - AQ Shoes in Magherafelt

Jumper - Benetton Sale (AW16)

Scarf - Zara (old)

While I was in Limerick, I was seriously tempted by LOTS in the Primark shop there...or Penneys as it's called in Ireland. It's one of the better stores I've been in. We stopped briefly in the Newbridge store on our way down (in Co. Kildare) and it was nowhere near as good as Limerick, even though it's as big...if not bigger.

Gucci Inspired Cross Body Bag

This is a fab jumpsuit

I have one of these lightweight long-lined jackets and I wore it lots last  autumn.

More fab wee bags!

This bag is a bit of a Zara dupe, as is this next jacket - both will sell out very fast I'm sure.

Some sale items - firstly these amazing Isabel Marant inspired long sequin boots for £7 and some silver beauties for £5. There's a very similar silver in the current range in Topshop.

The sandals are coming in slowly - these wee ruffle ones are lovely and come in a few different colours:

And there are loads of these colourful lightweight jackets and I've seen them popping up on stylish Instagram accounts for the past few weeks. This hot pink one was only left in larger sizes but other colours had full size availability.

Can you believe I managed to avoid buying anything in the pictures!! But I did buy a slightly different bright coloured lightweight jacket that I'll share asap. Just haven't worn it yet.

Finishing this blog post with a night out outfit from Thursday. I was invited to the launch of Czech Republic beer, Pravha in The Perch in Belfast. Opening of an envelope the husband calls these gigs. For me, it's a great chance to catch up with my blog husband Jeff and I also met another friend I used to work with in the bank many moons ago. It was so lovely to reminisce about our days in RBS....over a few beers

I hope you had a good weekend. Is there anyone else out there still on Half Term?!! My girls don't go back until Wednesday. Not easy to juggle - thank goodness for flexible working and a sympathetic boss.

Back soon...
