You can get pure cashmere gloves and hats in Marks & Sparks. I can't remember how much the gloves are but I think the hats are €27.

Loving sapsorrows looks on the WDYWT thread. Looking great girl:):) The coat from penneys is gorgeous, is it this season's stock? Have been looking for a red coat...well I did order one from ebay, but another wouldn't hurt:pac::pac:
Edit- the dress from etsy is gorgeous but $248 :eek::eek:

Sapsorrow

Thanks Lind! Lol if I were to get married I would love to do so in the first dress (or even the last one, barbie dream wedding complex or what!! :pac:), I wouldn't mind paying it for an occassion like that. No the coat is from 2 or 3 years back but they've had them since in green.

Doh! I'm so not with it, I didn't notice there were 4 different dresses:o:o Really need to get the eyes checked. Will check out penneys next time I'm in to check out the coats, normally just head to the clearance section and the boys section! Enjoy your night out.

Oh my lord she did such a good job with the foundation! I REALLY made it clear that I wasn't wearing tan and needed my face to match the rest of me. If anyone wants her name let me know.

She used PRO Long Wear in two colours mixed together, Face and Body on my neck and Mineralise Skin Finish Natural powder in Light. I bought the powder, it's so lightweight. Then a blush, bronzer and highlighter.
You can't really see from the pic, but the eyes were a really dark shade of green with some grey blended.

Twee, you look FANTASTIC in your 21st pic! Love the whole look, the make-up, the hair, and especially the nail polish. Simple and elegant

Twee.

The nail polish is deadly! It's Mac as well.

She really did! Your Make up is stunning!! Love the pale look! I never use tan either. Your hair is fab aswell! LOVE the colour!

I love that powder its my favourite! It gives a lovely finish! Mines nearly gone actually, need to buy a new one!

Agree with everyone, Twee! You look so great! Love the nail varnish too, I wanna invest!

I never use tan, either! I use Mac Face and Body Foundation in the palest shade available instead. So much less effort :pac:

Another fan of Twee's WDYWT. You looked stunning:-)

@ Sappsorrow - Would def be up for a charity shopathon! Was in Midleton on Saturday and the DAWG charity shop looked great, but sadly it was closed (at 4.30!) so I could only look longingly in the window:( Haven't done a trawl of the charity shops in Cork in many years, since my mum died, it used to be a Saturday thing we used to do, she loved Charity shops and picked up many gems over the years.
Oh, that Gunne Sax I ordered from Etsy came today and its gorgeous, so glad I went for it and any of the so called faults are not noticeable at all. Love it!

hehe! I'll be here over the xmas certainly, but don't know how feasible that would be. Sometime in the new year I should expect!

Charity shops here are expensive and are nit-picked of the good stuff, and 'vintage' items are like £15, its ridiculous!

I got a green wool Avoca coat though for £9, which was a good buy, its 90s I think but I like it all the same Still hunting for a wool, brown blazer.

Boys checkered vans under a little demin skirt. Is this good or bad? I'm looking in the mirror and I can't decide.....

Having met you, I'd say it would look really good on you! Add a pair of black opaque tights and you'll look casually cute!

Just because it's not as fashionable doesn't mean it's not a good look!

pikachucheeks

I have Vans with the red hearts on them. I don't wear them that often, but when I do, it's always with a denim mini skirt.
I don't really care if it looks fashionable or not, it's just an easy-to-wear, casual look. Suits me fine for college!

squeakyduck

OHH! Thanks! I don't care if I'm 5 years ago, I'm not one for keeping up with the ever changing fashion trends! :P

I'm paranoid about my feet looking HUGEEE, but I worried about the same thing with converse and it's my fashion style staple!

@ fillefatale,
love your trousers in the WDYWT thread, how much were they?? can't seem to find them on the site, also do they have them in different colours?

Lia_lia

Bit late here. But Twee I must say you look fab in your 21st picture! I love your hair especially

I think I'm officially getting old. I was in Miss Selfridge today and there wasn't a single thing in the shop that didn't receive one of the following two responses:
1) "Ugh!" and shudders
2) "That'd be lovely, if I was 14"

Luckily, COS have just arrived in Ireland to save my shopping options :pac:

Twee.

Where is COS??!!

I had no idea! This news excites me very much. I love their clothes. Thanks
