Oh Karla…

So I’ve decided to go back to blogging. Here’s why:

Zara lace dress, Royal Wedding & Eggs…

It has been an eventful week. Along with the above I’ve also sent the summer edition of B Mag to sleep. In did, in fact, nearly kill me. But the sun’s been out loads and I’m planning on moving soon so all is not shit.

Zara lace dress
Got this dress in Zara in Berlin a few weeks ago and love the handiness of it!

Here’s a more detailed view of my chest the lace.


The Royal Wedding brought out the Princess in every girl in the office on Friday.


Easter Sunday in the ‘rent’s back garden!

Merci Beaucoup

I headed out to check Lyyke Li in the Pod on Saturday night wearing this ‘fit. Some dude told me I looked like Vera Duckworth. And that he liked it. Bam.

Monday Evening Dublin Pubs

I had what some would call a ‘rough’ day yesterday -a direct result of ‘kicking’ the sugar habit when I invested in a Canderel dispenser. Anyways, I figure the way to counter this dip in sugar levels and, consequently, dip in personality, is to hit the pub for a sneaky post-work stabilizer. Mulligans is between my bus stop and apartment and does a daycent pint of a Monday night.

*Secret necklace fact: I have a liquorice treat inside the bag!

I’ve started reading Brave New World, colour me anxious for the future.

Colourful inspiration for the weekend.

So I said, ‘sure it’s all about embellished socks these days.’

I embellished myself some socks today.

Socks, same, €2.

Et voila! Crusty-but-in-a-good-way socks! Miu miu tastic.

Check out my stuff.

You might be getting a pain in your behind just looking at pictures of my clothes on this blog, but really, that’s what I do the blog for so beat it. But if you are, I’ve decided today is the day when you don’t have to look at over processed pics of my shoes, and instead you can look at over processed pictures of stuff I don’t wear on my feet! Here are 7, count’em, 7 things that I really like from around my house.

1) Blasphemy

2) Collection of personally photoshopped Jeff Golblum stuff.

3) Sewing Machine

4) Optimus Prime/Pez/Coca cola truck/Lego crew (with special guest star tealights).

5) Soma Bottle (Pompous Maximus)

6) Monroe

8) GORT

I feel this choonage is apt for this post. Cause it says ‘apartment’.

I thought you said ‘summer’?

I thought it was summer yesterday so I put on this dress. Then I went outside and it rained and I cried. Then I went for pints and the match in Sinnotts, then to The Port House for some meatballs. aubergine, patatas and other tapas style foodstuffs. Overall it was a good day but my legs were freezing.
