Hey All,
Worst thing about wintry weather? The fact that style and practicality don’t go hand in hand. I mean, I love my Parka and Hunter wellies for keeping me so warm. But style-wise, I look like I should be heading to a festival or mucking out stables. Doc’s, leather jacket and layers, kept me kind of warm today; I went for a walk in this tiny park near my house; hardly anyone had been there so the snow was still perfect and white.

Hey All,
I’ve got loads to blog about this week. I had such a great weekend in the Dublin sunshine; I went to an amazing gig on Saturday; if you get a chance to see Dublin band The Revellions at some point, do it. I spent the next day making the most of the sea air at Dun Laoghaire seriously, Teddy’s ice cream is the best cure ever.
Yesterday I was flicking through my copy of Stellar Magazine, and was honoured to discover they included Whisty in their Trend we Heart pages this month. I frikkin love Stellar anyway so being included in the mag is amazing.
I teamed the dress with vintage leather – Docs, jacket and belt – and the lace bolero in this photo. But I wore it at Dun Laoghaire on Sunday, on its own with a leopard-print wrap. (Pics to follow during the week – promise). I love when clothes are that versatile, I reckon I’ll be wearing this dress right through till winter.

Hey All,
Long time no blog. I was honoured, to be asked to guess-post for one of Ireland’s best blogs; A Chick Named Hermia last week. So I’ve worked my little fingers off, typing away at that for the last few days. I have no qualms about writing for my blog, but wow, I actually felt a tinsy bit of pressure writing for someone else’s. But anyway, link to follow when / if the post goes live over at Hermia. Promise!
I did however find time to go wandering about, among some old farm buildings. I dunno why, looking for some sort of illegal rave / barn dance-type affair possibly. For some reason, I feel like I have to be dressed, ready to attend some sort of festival at any moment during summer. Probably explains, not only the barn-wanderings, but also the fact that I have enough pairs of Doc Marten’s and flannel shirts to dress a Pearl Jam tribute band.

Hey All,
I’m crushing on every one of these photographs. I know that ankle / floor length white dresses and puddle-ridden Dublin streets are not exactly a match made in heaven, but still. I very much would like a pretty white maxi dress immediately please.
I saw the post-Glasto pics of Florence Welch in hers and since then, I’ve seen long white dresses everywhere. They’ve been teasing me saying, oh go on, you know you want to. And I do want to, especially the sheer skirted ones and I’d wear it with my scruffy old pair of black Doc Martens to boot.
