Bog Standard



I was at a fashion show last year in which they gave away gift bags to everyone that attended, in the gift bags was a sample of some Bog Standard Products, at the time I had never heard of the company.

After trying the samples for a while and I fell in love, the sample I got was 'Irish Field' as it was called at the time, its now called 'Field', it smells like a field after its rained and I love everything about it.

I have since repurchased the candle maybe 3-4 times, while buying the candle again I came across Soap and an Air Freshener, which I put in my wardrobe to make my clothes smell nice.


Isn't the new packaging just beautiful I almost didn't want to open it.
 Im all for supporting Irish businesses as well so this is perfect, its also a really cost effective brand and honestly I don't know what I did before I found it.

I'd recommend this scent for spring.


Have you ever heard of or tried this brand before? Let me know what your favourite is.

Visit their online store : www.bogstandard.ie/ and do tell me what you buy!

Spring Skin

Hello there, As it's now officially spring, I like to start preparing my skin for Summer as I will obviously not be wearing much make up. So I thought I would share with you some of the things that I use that really help my skin and hopefully yours too.


I have seen this product on nearly every beauty blog, so im sure you'll have seen it before, as I have sensitive skin I was a little apprehensive about using this and usually any cleansers leave my face a little red after but this hasn't. It is essentially like water.My skin has never felt so clean before.


I use both the Clean and Clear Morning burst Moisturiser and Facial Cleanser, that I use as somewhat of a scrub, I recommend this for the Spring/Summer as it leaves your skin with a radiant glow.


And for a Face Mask I use this Australian Tea Tree Mask, I love the smell of Tea Tree. I wouldn't recommend this if you don't because its quite strong. It really leaves your feeling soft and clear from the first use.


These are products that work with my skin, and as I said my skin is really sensitive so these product should be suitable for any skin type.
Let me know if this helped anybody as I love finding new products that leave me with nice clear skin.

Vegan Maybe ???



Again not really a beauty related post, but im gonna use this as like a diary for the week and try to update about it as often as I can, so my friend Diana and I watched a documentary on Veganism and decided to try it for a week to see what its like and see will I continue it.

This isn't something I decided from watching the documentary as such, I have been thinking about it for a while, but didn't think it would be easy to do due to where I live and accessibility to Vegan products but its far easier than I originally thought, although it is early days.

As this is the first day and im new to this, I wanted to use this as a sort of way to document it and share my experience with Veganism if any of you were thinking of trying it. Also if you know any good recipes maybe you could leave a link or the recipes themselves below, I like all vegetables so im open to anything.

Wish me Luck :)  xxx

Style Crush Sunday | Camila Alves

Every Sunday Im going to tell you who Im loving at the moment, whether it's style/make up or hair.

Today its Camila Alves, Brazilian Model and wife of Matthew McConaughey, she really brings it, whether it's red carpet or casual, I think she's stunning. As well as being a mum of three (I know, with her body) she is also a designer.


I also have serious hair envy but lets not get to into that, I love that her casual style it's so laid back compared to her Red Carpet wardrobe, to me she really made an impact on the red carpets recently at movie premiere's and award shows.



She wears clothes so well,well I suppose she is a model, and always looks so unbelievably gorgeous.




I just love the whole vibe she gives off with her style,she has the same style I do and Im obsessed with her lately, I can't wait to see what she wears to the the Oscars, she will more than likely be featured in my 'I Have Red Carpet Fever - Part 2' as she was heavily in the first one.




What do you think of her style? Let me know.
Thanks for reading xx

Primark S/S 14 -My Favourites






While flicking through LOOK Magazine, I seen they had some of Primark/Penny's S/S 2014 Collection.I knew I needed some new things for my wardrobe, So I went online and found some of my favourites, these items will defiantly be in my wardrobe ASAP.

First off, I found this Green Blouse with sheer flower detailing which I really like, I absolutely love this colour and thought it would look great for Spring.

To compliment that, I thought this White Mini Satchel would go with anything in the Spring and then into Summer. 

How cute is this Yellow Shift Dress, I can totally see this with this Statement Necklace when the weather gets a little nicer.

As I missed out on Zara's skort when it was out I will be purchasing this replica , that is if this one doesn't go either.


If you know me, you know im a bit obsessed with Monochrome, I basically live in it and I adore this Monochrome Grid Blouse , not really for spring only, for me this is an all year rounder.

I've been really liking Perspex clutches and was about to buy one online when I found this one, This Perspex Handbag is perfect for summer nights out to bring a pop of colour to an outfit, although i would like to point out you will need a little pouch inside this for money, cards etc as it is see through.

Again this is something for all year round , This Denim Sleeveless Shirt would look great open with shorts or tucked into a skater skirt, and paired with this Statement Necklace .


If you've seen some of their new collection tell me what was your favourite and if you have some suggestions on what I would like please tell me :)
