Topshop necklace dupe :)

Hey guys :) 

This week I've been shopping like a made one! I came across this beauty in topshop! But with the price tag of €65 I don't think I could part with that! 


I've been reading some beauty and fashion blogs lately and even came across these beauty's from topshop! 



But my blog is all about good values products :) 

So I accidentally came across a very similar style necklace for only €6 in primark!!!!! 


It's a black thick cord with a 22cm length rope, black jewel embellishment and silver accent touches! I am in love and will get plenty of wear out of it!!!


For €6 where can you go wrong?! I am in love and highly recommend getting this piece :) 

Peace, love and happy shopping!

Simply be......Yourself!!!

Hey ladies! :)

As you all now social media has often been attacked for its use of stick thin models within its campaigns. Simply be is a company that sells clothes from size 14 up to size 32! Making clothing available for us REAL sized women!

With my body shape I find it hard to get a nice style dress as my top is a lot smaller than my bottom half. Holla pear shape! But I am not like everyone else, we all have different body shapes! Simply be has designed these clothes for people who are curvy, REAL sized and of coarse voluptuous!

Bigger is better and once you are healthy you deserve the right to be happy, confident and proud of your beautiful body shape!

I've decided to buy some lovely clothes from simply be! Some people have weird expectations that plus size clothes are over sized, shapless and dated! But this is not the truth! Simply be have a huge range of fashionable and fitted clothes for all body shapes!

I have ordered three items and even get an extra 20% for it being my first order! HAPPY DAYS!

 
The website is so easy to use and makes shopping online easy!

 
I even called the help desk with the number on the side and have had the best experience with their staff. I was speaking to a lovely girl named jenifer and she answered every single question I had to ask! I even paid 6.99 extra for the swift delivery service but I didn't mind paying it as I had a fantastic 20% off :)
 
Slightly thinking I am addicted to shopping AGAIN!
Happy shopping days

Clear mind, Positive thinking!

Hey guys,

so most of ye at this stage already know that I was on holidays for about two weeks from work, this time made me think ALOT, about EVERYTHING. Friendships, family, partners, drama's etc etc. Suddenly something clicked, I know this sounds so cliche but when I started to think, clearing my space from toxic negative people made my life so much more positive.

So just like my new year blues blog, I'm here with a blog about how to keep a clear calm head filled with positive thoughts :)

Step one: Life is too short to argue, fall out or even have fights with people. Someones behavior or actions may be a mistake but if they do it multiple times it then becomes something within their character and you are better off without them :)
I have learned the hard way, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. Don't waste your time, energy, emotions on someone who is not worth your own :)

Step two: consider who means the most to you, evaluating friendships isn't illegal? Why am I still friends with someone I dislike on Facebook? get them out of your life, the sooner you get rid of them the sooner you will have a clearer happier mind :)

step three: let bygones be bygones :) holding grudges is not something i do, If I ever have a fight or a tiff without someone, i will always leave it to settle, if I feel sorry Ill apologize and even if that doesn't happen I just leave it to bubble over. No point wasting your energy and time on someone who isn't worth it is there?

Step four: You are the only one who can control your positivity! I've learnt this the hard way, only you and you only can control this, turning to alcohol, food, friends, bitching only wastes energy and you feel worse for it after!

Step five: think about the things you are doing to yourself, until you are 100% happy with yourself, then and only then will you be happy with things around you. Don't put yourself in situations, socialize or even waste energy on things that are toxic or negative for you :)

This is a bit of an odd blog, comment any suggestions about how you did this!

Happiness, Kind wishes :)

Holiday look book - katiedailiesdaily


Hey guys :) welcome back to katiedailiesdaily :) I have a treat for you as I have just spent a week of holidays in the beautiful Kerry in Ireland :) the weather was sunny most days but very very windy as it was right beside the ocean :) 



 Outfit number one :) 
This outfit seems a little bright, but hey it's summer! It has a cut out hole on your stomach which I've covered by wearing a white tank top underneath :) 

I got this for €16 on boohoo.com and I love it! The only negative is the dress can be quite see through, but the quality is amazing, feels very light, cool and very comfy! Perfect dress for a hot holiday as the length is perfect!!! 



I kept my make up very simple as I did not want my mascara to run in the heat! 
Face Rimmel 25hour stay foundation in ivory! Naked by urban decay eyeshadow and boots lipstick in rosé petal from the natural collection! 




I paired this with tights €3 for 3 pairs from primark! A maroon skater skirt from primark €7 and a black ruffled armed fair trade top €12 from Tesco! 


I also paired it with this skull scarf, which I bought from a vendor stall in Dublin city for only €6! 



I kept my makeup very clean with the urban decay eyeshadow palette, and the new apocalypse lip gloss from Rimmel in apocalyptic in boots 2 for €12! 

Outfit number 3 :) 
This was a day I spent a lot of climbing up hills, going to sight seeing destinations and taking lots of pictures! I wanted to be comfortable and cool at the same time! 






I went with bright make up this day as the outfit was very dark :) bright red lipstick in Big Bang from apocalyptic lip glosses from Rimmel! 2 for €12! 


Outfit number 4 :) 






I paired it with a red skater skirt from primark for €7 and navy tights from new look! 






This day I did a lot of travelling so I wore this cotton dress from primark for €15! 



I paired it with a sliver belt from primark €2! A funky glasses necklace from Claire's accessories €9.95 and bracelets from primark and my own collection! 





This night was a night out with my friends! I got this stripy black skater style dress (dya think I like skater dresses? ;)) from primark for €17!!! I paired it with rimmels Big Bang apocalypse lip gloss and a deep gold smokey eye! 



I paired it with these black wedge boots €22 from primark!!! Which I loooove!

Statement jewellery haul - Katiedailiesdaily




Hey guys :)

I'm back with a huge summer haul! 
The two places I went too were Claire's accessories and primark (penny's) :) and one sneaky purchase from accessorize! 

I am in love with statement summer pieces but wanted to get pieces I could wear all year around :) 

This first piece is from primark and was only €1.50!! Bargain piece, it has a super long chain and comes cute little gems on the hearts :) 



This next necklace is my favourite necklace I've ever bought!!! It was only €5 and looks so much more than that!!! 


It's a brushed sliver plated necklace and sits just on the collar bone and I am in love!!! I've seen these in gold everywhere but I felt the sliver looked even better!!! 







I was in love with this peach statement necklace the second I saw it in primary! The colour isn't showing up as well in pictures! It is a brighter peach and literally goes with everything! 





I also love how the necklace is on a rose gold necklace because rosé gold is beautiful! Again it sits just on the collar bone and is excellent value!!! Doesn't leave any nasty green marks expected with cheap necklaces!! 






I bought this next gold necklace in primary for €5, somehow this beauty ended up in my basket by mistake but hey I'm not complaining!!! :)


€5 later this baby is mine, it sits at a perfect length on my collar bone, looks stunning with dresses, tops and even some collared shirts :) 






I love the weaving gold detail which gives it a fabulous 3d effect :) 




I know sunglasses aren't statement jewellery but these beautiful sunglasses make a beautiful statement with any outfit :) I bought these for €1.50 in primary, but new look have a similar pair for €15 which I also have!! 

I bought these after I saw kourtney kardashian in a similar pair on tv :) 



I am obsessed with the black and white pokda dots and cat eyed edges :) 






This moustache ring was part of a set I got in primark :) 


This cute sliver bow was also in the set :) 




And this gold hat and gold glasses rimmed with a black edge :) 





The entire set was only €3 and it came with 4 stackable rings, 3 earrings and looks great together! I love how the rings can be worn together, seperatly or even as thumb rings mixed with other rings I have :) 



For €3 I taught this was a total bargain :) 




This next one is a funky statement necklace I found for €10 in the accessorize sale :) they are red glasses on a long 24" chain :) 


They got a tiny bit damaged in my shopping bags but this is nothing I can't fix with nail varnish :) 



They look cute with any summer dress and I love wearing these to spice up any outfit :) 



Above is a love/hate kind of necklace! I personally love love love it!!! 

I was in Claire's accessories and I couldn't miss the offer!!! 3 for 2 and everything was €3!!!!!!! Therefore 3 necklaces for €6, €2 a necklace!!!! Woah, loads of maths!!!! Overall BARGAIN!!!!!


I <3 bargains :)



This necklace has bright pink stones surrounded by clear crystal stones with teardrop shaped stones dragging from it! 

With the right outfit, a tan and a fabulous bag this necklace can spice up any outfit!!!! 



As my granny once told me, "if you love something so much, buy every colour in it" and so I did!!!! I liked this bright neon green colour so I bought this too :) for €3 I could not say no!!! 


Sadly I was carrying so many bags some of my jewellery got bashed up in the bag :( 



This rose gold ring was a must have for me this summer!!! I've wanted one for ages and ages!!! This was only €2!!! It goes across two fingers and fits perfectly!! All I need is a little bit if superglue and its sorted ;) 



This last necklace has been something I've been eying up on high end websites!!!! But was just not worth the price!!! 



It's a neon orange triangular necklace tipped with sliver edges!!! Guess how much I got this beauty for?! ;) 

€1!!! €1!!!!!! €1!!!! I nearly died with happiness :) I love this, the colour, the price and the style :) Ahhh-mahhh-zing!!! 

Happy shopping days :) 

Ps - like my €1.49 iPhone case?! ;) go to deals/pound land for this little baby, I am in lovvvveee!!! <3
