I wanted a grafea backpack as soon as I saw Sammi Maria sporting one. However once I realised they were real leather I was immediately put off them. So when I saw this faux leather grafea-esque bag for a quarter of the price my heart nearly stopped from excitement. But I'm at a loss as to what I'd wear it with and weather I could pull it off and for me €56 for a bag is quite a bit so I'm going to put off buying it until I figure how to style it. But I can see me buying this in a week after my birthday money reaches my hands.

Petite Checked Pinafore Dress - TOPSHOP - €57

Can we JUST talk about this please. It's beautiful and cute and smart. I want it now. 

Longline Faux Fur Coat - Missguided - €84
Okay I knew as soon as I saw this I'd never ever be able to buy this because €84 for a coat I'd have the balls to wear about six times is a lot but it's just so pretty and I never say that about pink clothes ever. If you really love me and have a few quid spare hit me up pleeeeeeaaaasseee.

Active Black Yoga Pants - Missguided - €14
I need more yoga and work out pants and these look pretty cool. I love how they look kind of like disco pants so it's not as bad if I'm lounging around or just running errands in these.

Cold Shoulder Over Sized Dark Grey Jersey Dress - Missguided - €21
I've wanted a grey wintery day dress since September 1st and it was okay for grey to be worn on the reg again.  And this is a gorgeous dress that would fit in on a romantic dinner date, casual drinks with friends or a much needed shopping trip. Really wearable and cute.

Strappy Burgundy Velvet Swing Dress - Missguided - €25
CAN WE PLEASE NEVER LOOK AT ANY OTHER DRESS AGAIN. It may be very love cut and my minuscule tits will undoubtably struggle to keep this up but it's just so cute yet sexy at the same time. And it does the flowy spiny thing and I could wear it when I want to feel cute and a lil preppy and when I feel more grungy and edgy and like I wanna kill a man. I just love it.

Strappy Lace Up Heel Sandals - Missguided - €49

Once again I've wanted a pair of these for so long but I've hated my feet since I was six so always just look on in admiration. But if once I get over my severe disgust towards my feet then these are the first pair of shoes I'd buy.

Ultra 32 Shade Eyeshadow Palette in FLAWLESS - MAKEUP REVOLUTION - £8

I love all of these shades and for traveling this would combat the countless palettes I now bring on weekends (which turn into fortnights) away. I love the other Make Up Revolution things I own so I'd love to try this. Seeing as this is so cheap I'll probably buy it soon enough.

Seeing as this is my birthday month I will probably own the majority of things on here by the end of the month so maybe you'll be seeing them on here soon. Hopefully.

Tartan Skirt

When I bought this skirt it was a size 14, three sizes bigger than me. But I saw a project and for €2 how could I turn this beauty down. Coming into Autumn/Winter this skirt is gonna be a staple for me. It's thick material will keep me warm on those chilly autumn days and it can be dressed up and down so it's multifunctional. It even has a side zip for an even more flattering fit. I LOVE this and you'll be seeing it a lot more.

Moroccan Style Scarf

Another winter staple here in the form of this beautifully embroidered scarf. You probably can't tell from the photo but it's so thick and big that it's the perfect combat to Irish winters. It's long enough to be worn in a variety of ways and the embroidery is absolutely beautiful and not out of place is the multicoloured and beautiful Moroccan street markets. 

Striped Navy / Cream Blouse

I'm not a blouse wearer. My style is a little less refined and girly for blouses but I couldn't walk past this. I love the collar and the stripes. It's a size larger than my own but once the sleeves are rolled up you can barely tell. €2 for a piece that can be worn with jeans or skirts for when I want to look more lady like is an absolute steal. Perfect for drinks with the girls.

Black Zipped Circle / Skater Skirt

Skater skirts are my favourite kind of skirt. Their flowyness hides my lack of a figure, they draw attention to my small waistline and they're so easy to style. This skirt is different to the rest of my skater 

skirts. It lacks the elasticated waistband and instead has a zipper at the back. The material is less stretchy than most but falls in a beautifully elegant way and teamed with a blouse like the one above it would make a wonderfully but together yet easy outfit. €1 people ONE EURO!

Top shop Petite Coat 

This is my final and by far best find. And yes it is another winter piece but could be a staple for me. I saw this and couldn't believe my eyes. A practically unworn coat with an buttonable hood and pockets that had yet to have the temporary embroidering removed. The inside is a lovely polka dot satin as is the SOMETHING in the hood. This would be wonderful worn with a pair of jeans as it doesn't cover the ass so you can still show off your assets (if, unlike me, you have them). It's warm and so adorable and is the perfect size for me. And what makes it even better is how much I snapped this gem up for. THREE EURO. €3. THREE. EURO. FOR A Topshop winter coat. Amazing.

New Look Bag

I've needed an easy throw over your shoulder already has everything bag for aaages and for the life of me couldn't find a nice one. I normally steer away from brown just as a general rule but as Soon as I saw this I knew it'd be an exception. In saying that there's nothing too exceptional about this bag but I know for autumn it's gonna be a handy all day bag that will hold everything I need from a day trip to a quick nip to the shops. Also a New Look bag for €2? Had take it home.

Burgundy Sweater 

This has the potential to either be a plain throw on or a more sporty piece. I'm in two minds as to whether or not I should cut this up into a cropped sweater or leave it be as a nice plain winter warmer. Either way for €2 it's definitely going to be worn. I think with black jeans or even with lazy grey sweat pants this could really tie an outfit together.

I apologise for my somewhat lacking creative descriptions of the items here but there's photos so hopefully that helps. After finding all these in just 2 trips I'm definitely going to be hitting the charity shops up more often and I'm helping good causes. 16 year old Angela once again was wrong. 

I hope you enjoyed this and be sure to follow me on my social media. Thanks for reading. 

You know what I'm gonna write about tonight? My fears. I've had a decent amount of alone time today and tomorrow I have something I'm really quite anxious for. In fact my anxiety has been on high alert all day. Of course I don't go shouting about that, in fact I think I've managed to come off as breezy to anyone who has come in contact with me today. Being anxious over such trivial things has made me acutely aware of just how many fears I have. So I thought it'd be good for me more than for anyone else's reading pleasure that I write them out. I hope to gain some perspective on the rest of my life by doing this but we all know we can't all get philosophical meanings off everything, so maybe this will just be a list of things big and small that an 18 year old girl in Ireland fears.
