no line on the horizon

this was a simple and comfortable outfit i wore on a nice cool morning in dublin. we were leaving to pick up our rental car that morning, but we were out and about early to get some last minute shopping done. on our walk, we passed by the garden of remembrance, which has a huge water art shaped into a cross, and the tulips were beautifully in bloom. 

i actually found a "thrift" store in dublin and found this topshop polka dot top/vest. the store is called 9 crows or 9 crow street, cleverly named after its street address. the vintage store allows you to sell your own chic/stylish clothes and enjoy some shopping at the same time! the i put it over a sheer top i bought from j crew eons ago! the black booties (no boots today) are from nordstrom rack. i love to buy clothes at a bargain! the scarf is from the boutique i love going to in orange county. the owner of the boutique is very down-to-earth, and it's always exciting to see what new things she has in her store. 

enjoy your day! xx

where the streets have no name

i wore this outfit when we visited trim castle. we initially thought that this castle was a concert video location for u2, but it was actually slane castle. however, as a tribute to an irish band i have grown to love, the title of this post is from one of my favorite music from them. a fun fact about this castle is that if you have ever seen braveheart, you will recognize this castle.

about the outfit, i bought it at a-wear while in dublin. i enjoyed shopping there, but the ticket prices are insane! i wore the dress with black leggings and booties since it was a bit cold. i loved wearing this lace dress/all black outfit with my red scarf and belt. xx
