A Skirt with sass!!

FashionMy Style

Hey hey hey..I’m back..finally says you!! I did write a post previously to this, just to explain that I had taken time off to spend quality time with family…

But now I’m back and even though I’ve been in denial about summer ending I am embracing the autumn transition period!!

I always love things that are a little bit different or edgy…..sometimes I can’t quiet pull off some of the looks that I imagine in my head but this skirt is most definitely one anyone can pull off!!

When I spotted this in Hickeys Fashion Fermoy I fell in love. I’m a huge fan of Hickeys and was delighted to collaborate with them on this post.

I’m always on the lookout for a skirt that you can wear during the autumn but easily carry it through to the winter months…this skirt is perfect for this purpose. The scuba material makes it warm and cosy but perfect for bearing your legs. And come the winter months just pop on the reliable black tights!

And how fab is this leather jacket another gem from Hickeys fermoy…its a french connection leather jacket and I love the soft leather on it…the waterfall look is perfect for throwing over these type of skirts and is always that little bit more dressy.

The top underneath is a body suit again perfect for this skirt…and its french connection from Hickeys.

Hickeys also have a matching top available with this skirt and it too is divine and looks gorgeous together. Pair it with a black ankle boots…

I also tried this with a black fitted jumper and it looked great. Even though the skirt is dressy its still easily wear it with different types of tops for a completely different look.

In fact Hickeys have some gorgeous pieces in at the moment to suit all ages, they are doing some gorgeous kirky labels and this is a new label to the boutique…my advise is definitely pop over their facebook page for more looks. (Or of you are a local pop in!) They also take orders over the phone and deliver nationwide. For more information on the above looks contact them on 025 31454 or  here.

Hope you enjoyed this post and expect more of these looks to follow

Until next time

A Simple but chic daytime look

FashionMy Style

A simple but chic daytime look is my main priority these days…perhaps with a preschool and school run my wardrobe just doesn’t seem to allow for anything else!

But casual does not have to be boring..and with summer coming it can be fun playing around more with casual looks. Hence why the white jeans are being pulled out!! Its totally acceptable to wear them in the summer months even if the weather isn’t sunny!

Because of being a busy mum, comfort and casual are priority but i also find shopping local is easier for me!! And luckily I have a lot of beautiful Irish owned boutiques on my doorstep, who also stock affordable pieces.

Both these items the white jeans and the shirt are from a local boutique called Hickeys Fashion Fermoy..I always like to have a browse around this store as they have some gorgeous pieces. They cater for all ages and  in more recent times, their price point has changed and is amazing value for good quality casual and dressy pieces. They stock French connection which is what I’m wearing above. They also stock other young brands which are a little more edgy and different which is why I love pottering into Hickeys! The girls in the store are unbelievably helpful and so friendly and nothing is a problem! And I love how well laid out the store is..you can see everything!

I love this shirt and the fact its not fitted or has buttons from top to bottom is perfect. I find it hard sometimes to get a shirt that one button doesn’t pop open or stretch across the breast area. With this top you wont have that problem. Also its a great top after giving birth or if you are trying to hide the first three months of pregnancy!! (I am not by the way :-))

The top is great quality and the detailing on the collar is beautiful, its lace! I also love the back of it too and the lenght of it just covers your bum area nicely.

At €78 its great value and I have a feeling I will get plenty of wear out of this one!! I have since washed it and it doesnt loose it shape whatsoever. There was so much choice in Hickeys for Tops I wanted the whole lot but I think I’d probably be divorced if I bought everything!!

The white jeans are so comfy and are extremely soft, they don’t feel like denim at all and they have a lovely shape and are mid rise!

I paired them with a tan heel which is from New Look (but old season) but similar here and the Michael Kors bag was a gift from my hubbie.

Its a great day time look and you could easily pop a pair of white shorts with this in hotter weather or pair it with blue jeans and it would look super..I definitely think you could wear this look for evening drinks too!

If you are ever around near Hickeys in Fermoy, do pop in as you will be pleasantly surprise with what they have to offer and I am telling you now, you will not leave empty handed…
