what will i wear today?

So my BF, also my roomie, is a compulsive shopper. The term shopoholic was designed with her in mind, she makes the WWIWT gals look like clothing conservatives. She literally has shopping blackouts where she cant remember what she bought on the return home…sweating, shaking, night terrors – the lot! Me being sensible Sarah, I’m [...]

Life can be so cruel. I mean you get up every morning, work for the man, pay your rent on time, donate to charity, separate your recycling, eat quietly in the cinema, dock your Dublin Bike near to the paystation, eat your 5 portions of fruit and veg a day…the list of virtuosity is endless. [...]

My love affair with Merle O’Grady‘s jewellery is well documented here. I have two of the Irish designer’s necklaces and crave more, more, MORE! Here’s what I’ve amassed so far. I wear either one of those two most days. But I won’t be stopping there. And I know ye’re gonna shout at me for saying [...]

WWIWT has a dirty little secret. We all share it, we all crave it, none of us can live without it. Despite all our diverging styles and looks, there is one thing guaranteed to have us in a collective flutter. J-E-W-E-L-L-E-R-Y. And by God, did Forever21 BRING IT. Myself, Aideen and Grace tooted on down [...]

SO peeps, another week, another lust and below is what us at WWIWT have been salivating over – what have you lovely readers got yer eye on this week eh? Rebecca is ALL OVER the Topshop bag collection right now and would love any of the following for the summer. The fact that worldwide shipping [...]

I like bananas. Mostly. Good, clean potassium fun. I like to eat them on their own; except when they’re black or squishy. Ugh… squishy bananas. I like to eat them with peanut butter on toast (or bagels, toasted bagels…mmmm). I like banoffi pie. A lot. I like bananas in crepes with sugar. And a hint [...]

What you lusting after? G’waaaan, tell us…we don’t bite. Rachel really wants this cute boyfriend shirt from Asos or this sweet little lemon number from River Island. Cutesy, Springy and Whimsical. However, she did reveal her naughty little secret in an earlier post – why buy high-street when you can buy the real thing down [...]

Howayaaaaas! Today’s blog post does what is says on the tin. I felt I needed to do a little bit of raving, nay, a little bit of banging on about how my first foray into the world of WAH and Shellac nails went. As a treat before heading to London, I thought I’d get the [...]

Quirky: A Fashion Do or a Fashion Don’t? Riddle me this – how quirky is too quirky?  I’m a big fan of creative licence and artistic expression: that little quirky sumthin’ sumthin’ to make you stand out from the crowd. An effervescent scarf, an unorthodox necklace, a whimsical bag, deviant eye make-up…My favourite three items [...]

Coco Chanel gently reminds us to take one thing off when we leave the house. I say: why? Why have one when you can have two? Why have one belt when you can have two? Why have one necklace when you can have two*? I have been known to wear two sets of scarves, two [...]

Spotted: A good friend of mine wearing a truly inspiring piece of jewelery. The necklace was cute, simple and fairly cheap. But on closer inspection of this necklace I noticed that Ciara had looped two beer can ‘thingies’  onto that necklace. An effortlessly easy idea but one that I found quite avant-garde indeed. Kudos Ciara on [...]

“Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross To see a fine lady upon a white horse With rings on her fingers and bells on her toes She shall have music wherever she goes”

what is no festival complete without? forget wellies, toilet roll and dutch gold. think wilfully obscure, whimsical, fanciful jewellery from tatty devine. the collection is twee, retro, naff and trendy. some of the pieces are so nostalgic – remember fancy-paper and sticker collecting? pierrot the clown stationary? hobby horses? plastic rings?

I love it when two worlds collide, affording you an opportunity to write a flippant, superficial post about a monumental historical discovery. Fashion-lite meets one of the 100 most important objects in the world. This splendiferous gold cape has been featured in the History of the World in 100 objects series, curated by the British [...]

today i came across a new designer. not by scrawling through the pages of vogue, or by aimlessly watching two hours of fashiontv, or even by flicking through other blogs. today, i was

After more unscrupulous work evasion in the office, I have since discovered that BT2 stock a sample collection of goods from Friis and Company. Rosemary Maccabe selected a delicious one for her review on handbags in the Irish Times. Egg on my face. But still, those glorious shoes and beautiful pearl ring I was lusting [...]

While over in Spain I acquired myself a fabulous, Mr T-worthy, zebra-print necklace. It is gold plated, chain-linked, slightly iridescent and damn fine. I purchased it in Uterque; a boutique-concept chain of shops set up by Zara and Massimo Dutti. The idea is to provide quirky, affordable pieces mixed with high-end, classic accessories. The result [...]

well just back from a week away in good aul sunny espana and i’ll admit, it was just a week of total over self-indulgence, tanning, pampering, sunning and strolling (though don’t be jealous, i have since been, and will be for the next week, chained to a desk trying to catch up on the strutural [...]

Happy Bank Holiday Hangover y’all. Tis Aideen here. I don’t know why I feel so drawn to this but I think this jewellery is brilliantly unconventional. It’s by Australian company Chewed By Tuesday and will set you back $250 (Aussie dollars that is – comes to about €174 and €7-ish for postage.)

I believe it is a widely known fact that I am a jewellery enthusiast. I am also a recycling enthusiast. So imagine my delight when I came across these sodomised Barbie rings and necklaces. Every childhood fascination with decapitating Barbie has been realised in a unique, if slightly deranged, jewellery collection. Designer Margaux Lange has [...]
