What I Wore: Summer '15

Sweeties, how heartbreaking is it to think its the end of August?! I cannot even fathom the return to school, the return to do the Leaving Cert this week- it honestly breaks my heart. Summer always seems to fly by, whether I'm busy or not. As I sit here writing this, the heavens are weeping outside my window and I probably have to stop kidding myself it's still summer- it's well and truly gone, however to be honest it never really arrived in Ireland.

My posting schedule is less frequent now- I've been writing my column for the Roscommon Herald each week and as I'll do the Leaving, I'll be writing it monthly. It honestly is such a joy and privilage to write it and to see it take up an entire page each week, with my picture and name beside the heading. It still feels so surreal, but in order to build up as much experience as possible I've been spending the last few weeks in the head office. I'm also trying to balance that with studying for my driver's theory test- I can't wait to do all the tests, to get my lisence and just to be able to drive. It's such a pain always relying on my parents to bring me places, I can't wait to just drive around town like nobody's business (we won't comment on my less than admirable driving skills).

As summer fades away, I thought I'll show you a few of the outfits I've been wearing and loving- most of them I wore in Lithuania, as the weather was gorgeous there, but a hoody and jeans was my go-to in Ireland. You can still definitely incorporate some of these into your wardrobe now, if the weather allows it!

And that's it, sweeties! Summer is well and truly over, all is said and done. I hope you had a fabulous last three months, I know I did- I've never had a more productive summer.

Thanks for reading!
