Summer workwear by Agata

Work it!

Top & bag - Zara

Trousers - H&M

Shoes - Guess

Cardigan - Vero Moda

We all want the same thing. To look good and to not waste our time constantly thinking about clothes. 

I am usually not very creative when it comes to dressing up for work. Why? Just because I rather choose to sleep longer than spend my time on trying on clothes. And I'm pretty sure, that I'm not an exception. No matter how many times I'm planning to pick my outfit the day before, it never works, I always find something more important.

Edgy vs Stylish for Style afternoon by Veronika

Floral Dress

If you follow us on Snapchat (Username: Stylegamblers) you've seen that we attended the Style Afternoon at Taste of Dublin last Friday. The perfect celebration of food and drink! It was our first time, but after the fun experience we had, I can assure you that the Taste of Dublin is marked in our calendars for next year!

This is my last look from beautiful Barcelona and I think it's my favourite. This dress won over other looks because it's ease of wearing.

Barcelona Story Part III by Veronika

City Views

Second day in Barcelona consisted of a lot of walking around sightseeing and looking for the perfect spots for pictures. On the way up to Guell park that afternoon we spotted these amazing city views and we were determined to take pictures here after. It took us about two hours to find it again, but it was all worth it. We were really tender after those 'few' coctails the previous night, but I still managed to jump for a couple of snaps.

I'm not sure if I mentioned already, that this was my second trip to Barcelona. First one was four years ago and during four days I visited most of the travel guide attractions.

Hola eveyone, 

This time last week we were in sunny Barcelona. Oh how much I miss it already! It's one of my favorite places in Europe. We arrived mid morning and I knew we were going to walk around the city until dinner time. I wanted something comportable and chic for sightseeing and lunching (and Mohito drinking). 

70's print by Veronika

Patchwork

This week we talk prints and to be exact Seventies prints.

Our love affair with this decade continues and we love exploring new ways to wear the biggest trend of the season.

If you follow us on social media (INSTAGRAM or TWITTER) you've seen that we attended the Into the West Blogger Network event in the exclusive Radisson Blu hotel in Galway couple of weeks ago. (You can read more about the event in our detailed post HERE).

I was on a hunt to find the perfect outfit for this event for weeks, but my work schedule and blog work left me with very little spare time. That made me to run around last minute to try and find something to wear! Shop after shop I couldn't find anything that stood out, so I thought I will have to improvise and wear something I already had in my wardrobe.

 Just as I was about to give up, I spotted this mini dress in Zara. I was instantly mesmerised! I adore the patchwork print that literally screams Seventies. Even though the dress has many different patterns, it is very easy to style because of its monochrome colours. I paired it with over the knee boots, trench coat, floppy hat and I tied a scarf around my neck. 

Other ways to wear this dress:

You can layer the dress over black wid-leg trousers or flares. And when the weather gets better I would wear it with platforms and fringed suede jacket.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoyed my post.

Stay Style Gambling,

Veronika

Galway print by Agata

 Misty Galway

 Dress - Primark (old)

Shoes - H&M

Bag - Zara

 Ok, so here it is, long waited day, trip to Galway for ITWBN event. So many plans, preparations, outfit planning... etc. I was very excited about taking pictures in misty Galway. As we always try to photograph our outfits in some interesting location, this seemed to be perfect opportunity to get breathtaking pictures. I had THIS image in my head and I thought about how amazing images we will have. Ekhm... until we started. Turned out, that misty weather is very tricky, fog was so thick, that we could barely see anything. And just to make it even harder, temperatures haven't been encouraging to take off our coats.

 It's amazing, how Irish weather is affecting the content of my post :) Maybe we should think about changing our blog name.

Well, here is few words about my look. I think I tried about ten different sets before the event and on the last minute I decided to wear the first one, typical!  The only addition was black vest, which I didn't include in the link above, because it's very old (yes I am a hoarder). Actually, dress is quite old too, but I love to wear it because of the paisley print and light fabric. Asos have a nice paisley dress HERE

and HERE and I think I saw few in Primark as well, but different cut. Anyway, seventies are trending now on a high street, so I'm sure there's gonna be plenty hippie dresses in shops.

Oh, and one more thing, ITWBN event was amazing (more details in our massive post here) and I can't wait to see all the great bloggers in May.

Have a great day,

Valentine's essentials

Valentines on the run

If you're going to be rushing to get ready for your Valentines date like me after work on Friday, you should get ready with me and follow simple rules. Do your tan today, get your outfit ready to go and most importantly treat yourself to a new sexy set of underwear. Good lingerie instantly boosts your confidence and remember, when you feel good, you look good ;-) 

 Also there is a 15% discount on selected lingerie in Debenhams, so that's another reason to go shopping.
