SLIMY BOO BROWNIES

As Halloween is rapidly approaching, I thought I would do a quick and easy 3 ingredient recipe for you guys to make during the SPOOKY season! Enjoy!To make the Boo Brownies, first pre-heat your oven to 150 degrees. Then place all your ingredients in a large baking bowl and mix with a wooden spoon until fully combined.

Next, what you want to do is take a 13inch pan and line it with some grease proof paper. Pour the brownie batter into the pan and place it in the pre-heated oven for 25 minutes, until the surface looks slightly crispy.

While you wait for these to cook, we can move on to making the SLIME to decorate. Take your icing sugar and add preferred amount to a bowl and gradually add water until it reaches the consistency you wish. I personally wanted mine to be a bit more runny so that I could drizzle it onto the BOO BROWNIES to give that desired SLIMY effect! After you have this done add a little bit of green food colouring to the mixture and stir well. VOILA! I give you the SLIME topping! 

Once you feel your brownies are done, remove from the oven and let cool completely before drizzling your slime on top.

I had so much fun making these brownies and I hope you do too! If you make them, be sure to send me pictures on Twitter and Instagram using the #slimyboobro

Nails, Nails, Nails!

Everyone knows that Christmas is the perfect time for glitter, it’s a pity we cant have that sparkle all year round! The good news is, Autumn is the perfect season for metallics. Understated and versatile they glam up your day without any need for a special occasion. I'm loving these nails from Fifth Avenue, my personal favourite nail salon in Cork. My nail specialist, Jurga, never fails to disappoint!

With the colder weather, pastels are out and warm tones and colours are all in! Spice up your colour scheme with a bold nail polish like these plum tones from Boston Beauty in Mahon Point. The girls are all so sweet and they open till 7 most nights so you can squeeze in an after work appointment, what more could you want?

We all know that Halloween is the main event on everyone's calendar for the Autumn Season. That’s why I couldn’t resist mentioning these little gems from Boston Beauty in Mahon Point. They're simply every Halloween lovers dream!

So crazy nails are not for everyone, which is why I also love these glam matt nails from Fifth Avenue! They're a bold statement for the Fall, but could also work fabulously with a sexy Halloween catsuit.. ;)

Last but not least is my personal favourite, a French manicure! Everyone is always so focused on the new style, but forget that a French manicure is classic and timeless, adding an air of elegance to all your outfits every time. These ones I found are from House of Beauty. (They also do a lovely student discount!)

I hope you enjoyed this weeks post, and I'd love to hear your go to nail style for the Autumn Season! Xx

Season Staples Every Girl Should Have

Hey Guys! That's right, I am oficially back and ready to blog! Just before I get into this weeks post I want to say that from here on out 4:00 every Sunday is when I'm going to upload a new blogpost so check back every week to see what I've been up to. 

Here in Cork, Autumn has arrived with a bang. The trees are shedding their leaves, the daylight hours are shrinking and there's an evident chill in the air. This also means that it's time to rotate my wardrobe from Summer sandals to boots and wooly scarves. So this week I'm doing a post on my favourite season staples that I believe every girl should own.

The first item I've been obsessing over lately is my denim overalls from Bershka. Overalls are a must have in the Autumn months as they're loose and comfortable enabling you to do all the activities you love and when in gets cooler in the evening, just throw on an oversized cardigan or plaid scarf and voila! You have a chic and cosy look. 

The next thing popping up a lot in my Fall wardrobe is my red quilted gilet. In the cooler months before Winter arrives there's a definite chill in the air, but it's still not quite cold enough to whip out the fur coats. So this jacket is a lifesaver for me. It's simple and classy for long college days or coffee dates with the girls. 

My Timberland boots are my life. They're a rusty brown colour and literally go with everything I own . I wear them with jeans, skirts, dresses, everything! In my opinion every girl should own a good pair of calf high brown boots. They keep you dry in the rain and look stylish on every occasion!

Finally my 4th season staple for the Fall months is a good floppy hat. I purchased my burgundy one in Paris a year and a half ago and found that since then it's been both a Summer  and Autumn staple of mine. A wide brimmed floppy hat is the perfect way to add a little spunk to a plain outfit and give an aura of mystery about you! 

That's my Season Stapes I think are a must for every girls Fall wardrobe! What are your Season Staples? Xx
