Low Key

Jacket-River Island

Tshirt-Primark

Jeans-Bershka

Sandals, Necklace & Backpack-Primak

I thought I'd do a little outfit of the day because I haven't done one in ages as I've been really enjoying having more of a lifestyle focus on my blog right now. This is the outfit I wore out for our 8 year anniversary dinner. It's quite low key for a celebratory dinner but it's very my style. These ripped jeans from Bershka are the axis my entire wardrobe revolves around. I wear them far more than I should, the rest of my clothes have to wait until they're dirty to get their own day out. The amount of rips is just perfect, it looks just worn in which I love. This was probably my last chance to enjoy summery sandals for the year, I saw a hint of sunshine so I had to wear them one last time! I got these beauts in Primark for €10, I also got a gold pair because they're so comfortable. Also another everyday piece in my wardrobe is this Primark backpack. Backpacks are just way more convenient than handbags, they fit loads and stay the hell out of your way. This highly decorated backpack was €15 and is perfect for college and travelling. Actually this biker jacket is also something I wear everyday, I think I'm getting a little too predictable...

What are your everyday wardrobe pieces?

Date Night: Base Bowling

Even after going out for 8 years, it's still nice to go on a date every now and then. Since I'm activities obsessed I was very excited to go on a little bowling date. I hadn't been bowling in years and had never bowled with the barriers down, so to be perfectly honest I wasn't great. We went to Base Celbridge, where they have bowling and laser tag. Per lane it's €19 for 30 minutes or €35 for 1 hour during off peak (10am – 2pm) or €24.00 for 30 minutes/€39.00 for 1 hour during peak times (2-10pm). Naturally I lost all our games but it was really fun anyway. After that we spent more than I'd like to admit on amusements, those 20 cents really add up and it's so addictive okay! Then like almost every day in my life it was time to pig out. Our treat of choice this time was Pizza Dog, I hadn't been before but it was so so good. My pick was onion rings and the New Jersey dog: a Frankfurter served with onions and mustard coleslaw. I'm currently writing this with cold pasta for my dinner and all I want to do is order Pizza Dog but I will resist temptation...I hope!

What are you favorite date night ideas?
