    The Best and Worst Maternity tights

    February 12, 2019 - By 

    Anyone who has been pregnant will know the struggle to get a pair of tights that don’t leave you resembling Nora Batty!! Find a pair of tights that stay up, but also don’t feel like they are cutting off circulation can be a challenge. A lot of people say size up in your regular tights but for me that was only an option till I hit about 5 months and my bump exploded!! Over the past few weeks, I have tried 5 different pairs of tights. I have tried them under a number of different conditions to see how they…

    The Capsule Maternity Wardrobe

    May 1, 2017 - By 

    Finding clothes to wear while pregnant can be tough. Your body is constantly changing shape and size. Throw in the fact that in Ireland we can experience 4 seasons in one day, it is hard knowing what to actually buy. How much you want to spend on maternity clothes comes down to personal preference and budget. Personally, I bought a number of cheap and cheerful items, as I knew I would be sick of looking at them come the end of my pregnancy. With that in mind, I have picked out a number of items which I found useful and…

    Fitting into “THE” dress

    February 22, 2015 - By 

    Every bride knows the struggle of fitting into THE dress. I don’t know why we do it, but we will ourselves to be thinner than we have ever been in our lives for the day we walk up the aisle. From an early age, most of us have imagined the moment when the first chords of the wedding march ring out from the keyboard and we glide up the aisle, arm in arm with our father, to marry the man of our dreams. For some, the longed for wedding body comes easily. While the rest of us have a much…

    Thrifty Tuesday – eBay Necklace haul

    July 1, 2014 - By 

    A few weeks back I posted on The Beautiful Truth Facebook page, about a little bit of bargain hunting I had taken part in on eBay. Aisling from Total Makeup Addict had recently posted about some gorgeous necklaces that she had bought on eBay and with a glass of wine in hand, off I went on a little bit of a shopping spree on ebay.  Aisling really is one of my main enablers. I love Statement jewellery. I have 2 jewellery hangers from Pennys, hanging in the inside of my wardrobe with my copious amount of necklaces hanging from them. When…

    Printed Trousers – The must have summer look

    June 4, 2014 - By 

    One of the things I love when on a night out, is checking out all the style. I love pulling ideas from other peoples looks and I am often found asking strangers where they got their clothes from so I can go and source that outfit. One thing was very clear over the weekend, printed trousers are the must have item this summer. Everyone was wearing them. Who doesn’t love being able to throw on a pair of trousers and a top and head out the door. Any excuse to not have to tan the legs! I have shyed away…

    Summer Wedges

    May 21, 2014 - By 

      I am trying lots of new things this week on the blog, and today it is all about shoes. Like most of the female population, I have enough shoes to give Imelda Marcus a run for her money. I have so many I have to switch my winter footwear out for my summer ones, and store all my winter shoes in boxes in the attic. For me summer time is all about wedges. I can’t get enough of them. If you are on the hunt for a new pair of wedges, today’s post might help you with that.   1. First…
