Outfit of the day - Casual wear!

Firstly, I just want to say that this is my first ever outfit of the day post. I thought I would introduce a little fashion to my blog, to add more of my personality and more content. I just seem to do review after review, but you don't really get to "know" me through that!  I do love clothes, so I'm thinking I shall begin with a few outfit of the day posts and see where we go from there!


Eiffel Tower top - Penny's 
Mint blouse - Forever 21
Jeans - Forever 21
Shoes - Vans

This is what I am wearing on my day off from work, just for kicking around the house and going to the shops! Nothing exciting! It is actually very mild weather today. I am excited for the Autumn but it seems the summer has just flown by! I'm going to miss wearing all my bright colours. This sort of outfit is basically what I have been wearing throughout summer. The Forever 21 blouse is one my favourites, I also have it in coral. Pennys are brilliant for inexpensive casual tops, I think this one was €6! I tend to pick up several of them whenever I can, you always need tops!! 
Forever 21 are my favourite for jeans. I had never shopped in Forever 21 until about this time last year. I now have 6 pairs of their jeans. They are just so comfortable and they fit me really well. I will have to invest in a few darker pairs for winter though! They are also really cheap which is a bonus!

This adorable kitten is not mine by the way, it's my nieces! 

I hope the inclusion of fashion posts will be of interest to my followers! I have a few nice ideas so I need to get working on them. Hope you have enjoyed, & have a great day!

Nails of the Day - Angelica "Hip Hop"


Angelia polishes are great. I have only ever used their glitter ones before, which are fab! But when I saw this bright neon colour in Pennys I had to get it. I know I love bright colours, but I have never worn a neon colour before! I just wanted to try something different.


It doesn't actually look that neon when it is applied. I must say, the formula of this polish is amazing. It is like a very fine gel, that just glides on very smoothly. I have never really used anything like this before! 



I really adore this polish and I can see it being a favourite of mine during summer!

Product Review - Catrice Prime and Fine

I picked this up in Pennys for €5 I think. The "invisible pores and lines" tagline attracted me, because I am noticing lines around my eyes which I am not happy about. Wearing concealer only makes them more obvious. The worst part is I am only 24 years old!



It is so difficult to describe the texture of this product. It is silky smooth, yet it feels almost rubbery too. There is a slight scent off this product. My skin immediately looked a lot smoother when I applied it! I put plenty under my eyes, and applied my foundation as normal. My fine lines looked nowhere near as visible as they were. Amazing result! However after a few hours my skin looked normal again.

So on a fresh application, I can definitely see an amazing result even though it is not long wearing. For €5 I think this is brilliant value and I will definitely be repurchasing.
