Happy St Patrick's Day! I'm off out on a pub crawl this afternoon around a local village to celebrate. I know I know, I have no Irish blood in me at all. But my father-in-law is Northern Irish which in turn makes my boyfriend half Irish which in turn makes me practically Irish! Plus my dear old Grandad was born today so I have lots of connections! So I have an excuse to get merry! I don't think it's going to be a late one to be honest and i'm not going to go mad as i'm saving myself for Aberdeen next week. But it shall be nice to have a natter with some friends. Even if I will have to sit through the football...

This outfit isn't the most practical for going on a pub crawl, by the 3rd pub I'll imagine i'll sit down on the bench, have a paddy (haha geddit?) and refuse to move. Suprisingly, that seems to happen every time I wear heels. Still I never learn! But then what's the point of having pretty clothes if you can't wear them out? I've always been the girl in the group thats overdressed. Life's too short not to make the effort! I wear this skirt to death, it must be on my body at least once a week. Best £16 i've ever spent as it goes with EVERYTHING!

Are you doing anything to celebrate today?

  16. I have the same shirt but mine's from Lavish Alice, and the buttons (and tag) are at the back! I wear it on the front though because it does look wierd with the buttons all the way down the back, makes it look like i have it on the wrong way! :/ Hope you've had a fab weekend! xxx
