Light is time thinking about itself.....

Hello,

Happy Friday!  So delighted it is the weekend but sad it is coming to the end of Mid Term break. We will be on the Christmas countdown before we know it.  I hope the girls and I are off to a healthier month, October had us with a lot of doctor visits.  The joys of the return to school.  I am seriously lacking in sleep at the moment! The clocks changing last weekend did not go down too well with my two year old! On a positive note, last weekend was my brothers wedding, we were so thrilled and excited for them both. My girls did us proud walking up the aisle with the wedding party as flower girls on the day.  As part of my outfit I wore my gold bracelet Sundial Watch.




  Sundial watches are a state of the art timepiece that incorporates modern watchmaking technology and the simple purity of art. Sundial is a collection of light powered watches with contemporary styling and a high level of fit and finish. For me what is so special about these watches is that they do not have batteries, you simply leave them in a well lit location and they charge themselves.  With the extensive use of glass in my house it is so easy to incorporate this type of watch into my life.




I recently teamed up with some local Limerick fashion professionals to create an Autumnal/Winter photoshoot. The shoot features my favourite Sundial watches from their collection and how I wear them with my own wardrobe at this time of the year.


Make up by Shauna created a very natural Autumn make up look.  



Being a red head a lot of make up doesn't suit me or show how I naturally look.  Shauna is fantastic at creating a make up look that suits you, she's great at listening to the client. Shauna is based in Limerick. To contact Shauna for bookings : 0879727581. Check out her Facebook page 'Make Up By Shauna'.



Hair was done so quickly and professionally by Kate Enright at Purple Rain Hair Salon.  

Purple Rain is located in Croom Co Limerick.  It is a favourite of mine. Purple Rain can be contacted on 061 600785.



Photography was created by photographer PJ Corbett. His photography studio is located in Adare.  
I first came across PJ through his newborn photo shoots.  I have his work of both my girls displayed in my house, they are like pieces of art.  PJ covers weddings, family portraits, fashion, newborn photography to name but a few.  If you have little ladies watch his Facebook page for upcoming Fairy photoshoot days, he creates magically pieces. PJ can be contacted at 0879208229

I styled the photoshoot myself, using my own wardrobe.  My focus was on the Sundial watches of course.

The brown strapped watch is 175e http://sundial.watch/product/a38lyw/







The gold watch is 225e http://sundial.watch/product/a38brw/



Sundial brand is owned by Calcul, a watch company based in Shannon, Co Clare.  Check out their exquisite watches.  Perfect for a special Christmas gift. To view all their collection click on www.sundial.watch

Valentine's Day

Hey Guys,

We all love and deserve a nice treat every so often, any excuse really! Some things I love about Valentine's Day;




THE MEAL

This year we have booked dinner in 1826 on the Main Street of Adare in Co Limerick.   I am really looking forward to having dinner here with my husband to celebrate Valentine's Day.  Fabulous food in a great location.
THE FLOWERS

He always gets them and I always love receiving them, Roses.  Wouldn't be Valentines Day without them!




THE PERFUME

I adore Chanel No 5 always have , always will!






THE CARD

This year I bought my Valentine Card from LAINEY K. She just launched a new Valentine's Day collection and I fell in love with it. It is quirky, made in Ireland and will put a smile on anyone's face. Check out her Valentine range here;
