Recreating 2021 Inauguration Day Fashion

Hey everyone! I know fashion was probably the least of peoples concerns on Biden's Inauguration Day, but I couldn't help myself. The monochromatic outfits made me so happy, I'm a sucker for a colour theme. Today I wanted to show you some pieces I found on ASOS to help you recreate two of my fav fits from the day!


First up is the new First Lady, Jill Biden. Her aqua blue monochrome outfit spoke to my soul. The matching gloves and mask topped it off, I couldn't stop staring! On ASOS I found a few pieces that would be nice paired together to recreate this look. I feel like the simple blue, baggy, unstructured dress would really compliment the OTT trench coat. The layers in the coat will help add some shape back to your body that may have been hidden by the dress and because they are such similar shades I feel like they'd go really well together. Plus both items are currently on sale so it's a win win!


Dress £14


Coat £47.60

Next, the iconic Michelle Obama. Although her hair was trending on Twitter, I'm more of a fashion gal so I was much more interested in her outfit choice. Stunning. Burgundy has been a firm colour favourite of mine for as long as I can remember, and paired with her complexion and the choice of trousers over a dress or skirt it was perfectly executed. I stuck to ASOS as well for this one because realistically, you really can't go wrong! I found a few variations of the burgundy pieces as it all depends on what fabric you'd decide to go for! I found beautiful PU pieces, the Violet Romance trousers with the belt as well as the Palones Croydon trench coat. I also included a pair of Hollister flared trousers just in case PU wouldn't be someone's favourite fabric or style (or you wanted to make it a bit more casual) and Topshop was also selling the prettiest borg coat. All to be paired with a simple knitted roll neck bodysuit.

Thanks for reading todays post, I had a lot of fun judging the outfits but even more fun trying to recreate them. Let me know which is your favourite, mines has to be the blue! 💙

Iconic Topshop Pieces From The 2010's

Given the sad news about Topshop this week I thought it was only right to dedicate a blog post to the iconic fashion statements made by them, mainly to teens like myself living through the 2010 era. Topshop was sadly bought over by ASOS this week, meaning all stores have closed and the website is gone. I personally find this upsetting as I used to love my weekly trips with the girls, looking through the clothes on the shop floor only to go home and purchase online anyway, buying from ASOS will not be the same. That being said, Topshop is to blame for a few very questionable fashion choices made by UK teens over the years, so I thought I'd shed some light and take a trip down memory lane in memory of the good times.  First up, frilly socks. Truly iconic. I used to love my frilly socks, I probably had a pair in every colour and when they started to fade from the wash no doubt I'd be back buying a replacement pair. It was very rare to see me in anything but! Paired with the next ...

Barilla Marketing Technique!

  Hi everyone! I came across a Tik Tok today which put me on to Barilla Italia’s genius marketing strategy and I had to share it!  Barilla is a famous pasta company in the US. It is an Italian family-owned company and started in 1877. They have and specialise in many different shapes of pasta and pasta related products such as sauces etc. But, Barilla have came up with the idea of creating a Spotify account and making a playlist for each pasta box specifically.  Upon looking at the account you can see that they have a range of playlists depending on the type of pasta and the required cooking time, to ensure the pasta is cooked to perfection every time whilst always having a good time cooking it.  For example, there are “Moody Day Linguine”, “Top Hits Spaghetti” and “Best Song Penne”- the songs in each playlist depend entirely on their title and theme and each playlist finishes at the time needed for perfect pasta (e.g 7 or 11 mins). They include many artists and genr...

Does "Normal People" reflect normal TCD life?

Hi everyone!! I thought I'd make today's blog post all about the BBC's "Normal People", discussing my favourite elements and if it creates unrealistic expectations for being a student in Dublin. If you haven't watched it (why???), Normal People was based on Sally Rooney's bestselling novel and tells the tale of an almost unconventional love between main characters Marianne and Connell. They attend the same school, where they initially meet before going to the same university, Trinity College Dublin, a year later.   There are a few reasons why I think Normal People was so popular when it released. The first being, if you're anything like me seeing elements of Irish culture on TV brings you all kinds of joy! Normal People is set in the fictional town of Carricklea however it was filmed in Sligo. I found this was one of the main reasons I chose to watch it as I used to visit Sligo quite a lot as a young child, it was weird to see it featuring in a TV show...
