Orla Kiely Charm AW16 Collection


Orla Kiely has added new pieces to her Charm collection, this time incorporating animals and Swarovski details. Check out all the lovely pieces below!

Four Point Flower Necklace in Gold ($209.25) and Silver ($178.25)
Let's start off with my favorite pieces - these Four Point Flower necklaces that also have matching bracelets and earrings (see below). I love how dainty these pieces look and they seem to go with everything.

Four Point Flower in Gold ($263.50) and Silver ($232.50)

Four Point Flower Hoop Earrings in Gold (£85) and Silver (£70)
These earrings are a close second favorite for me, right behind the matching necklaces above. I like how small these hoops are so they sit close to the ear. [Fun fact: my ear piercings are actually uneven - one hole is a bit lower than the other ear, which has always bothered me a bit because, well, I like things to be symmetrical. So whenever I wear hoop earrings or larger pieces, it's more evident. That's why I tend to gravitate towards studs or smaller hoops such as these so it won't be so noticeable. I'm pretty sure no one has EVER noticed this about me before, but I have always been conscious of it when purchasing earrings. End of fun fact :)]

£170
I do think these rabbit pieces are cute, but I kinda wish a different eye color was used because these red siam Swarovski's make these bunnies look a bit demented haha.

This rotating feature is such an interesting concept - you can flip the color to whichever one complements your outfit that day.

Hello Everyone


Hello everyone. So sorry I have been absent from this blog lately! It's been quite a busy couple of months for my family and I as we've been settling into our new home, and I've been juggling going back to work, decorating our house, spending time with our son, and trying to find time for myself amidst of it all. My husband and I have been working overtime trying to put our house together, and while it has been stressful, I'm quite pleased with how everything's turning out and I'm excited to share photos with you all (and yes, there are bits of Orla Kiely throughout our home).  Now that most of our house projects are complete, I can begin focusing on this blog again. I know a lot has happened over the past month (such as the debut of Orla Kiely's AW16 bags, a new jewelry collection, new iPhone 7 cases, and a collaboration with Grobag) to which I will write more detailed posts about in the coming weeks. I hope everyone has been doing well, and I look forward sharing my love of all things Orla Kiely with you again!

Orla Kiely FW16 Mainline: Spot Square Triangle Print Vinyl in Blush

The Spot Square Triangle print returns this season on a smaller scale and in a beautiful Blush colorway with pops of yellow - love! 

£130
This Bucket Bag is a new design for this season and it's my favorite! It features a flap closure and contrasting yellow leather card pocket on the back (see below).


£180
The Double Poppy Bag is a bit updated this season - the detachable matching leather bag is now a bit longer so that the pop of yellow shows through underneath - nice little detail!

£175
The Small Jeanie is a close favorite behind the Bucket Bag - I think I just like how the yellow card holder is on the front :)

£140
This bag is so cute and ladylike.
