My Summer Staples

-
Hey everyone and welcome back to Stay Sásta. For my first fashion blogpost on here I thought I would share my summer staples. These are 7 pieces that I find are worth investing in this summer. You will have endless outfit options with these pieces and they never date!

 First up is a good belt. I love a chunky belt with a buckle. My dad gave me an old Levis belt of his and it honestly goes with everything. It's such good quality and has lasted me so well. I also bought a chain belt on Nasty Gal recently and it's perfect for dressing up a casual outfit. It reminds me so much of the vintage Chanel chain belts and only a fraction of the price.

Second staple on my list is a midi skirt. Considering we won't get to a warmer climate this summer a good midi skirt is ideal for summer in Ireland. I bought a floral one in Topshop for €10 in the January sales and I love it. I also bought a satin one off Nasty Gal and Pennys also sell loads of midi skirts so check them out. A neutral colour will go with everything but floral is also perfect for summer.

If you look at my insta you will swear I live in these. My Zara bodysuits!! They are so cheap and so worth buying a few of as they make any outfit. They are the perfect basic for you summer wardrobe and are such good quality.

With BBQ season kicking off floral dresses are perfect for a casual evening or daytime. You can dress them up to be fancier or tone them down. I've bought a few now and will hopefully get some wear out of them soon. Floral dresses I got years ago still look good as they are a summer piece that will never date.

My 5th staple is a good pair of jeans. Now, I know these are summer staples and jeans might sound wintery but we're in Ireland we won't get unreal weather all summer and that's why I think it's good to have summer jeans. I am loving my flared jeans from H&M at the minute and the light denim makes them ideal for summer.

You can't go wrong with a statement pair of sunglasses. My Dad bought a pair of Tommy Hilfiger aviator sunglasses in TK Maxx but he barely wore them so I claimed them (hehe) and I loveee them. They're plain black and so easy to match with outfits.

The last item on my list is a good pair of sandals. I think we've all been there when you buy a pretty pair online or in Penneys but they cut your feet or aren't quality. This year I decided to buy a pair of white Birkenstocks and came across a brand new pair on Depop. I haven't taken them off since and they go with everything.

That's all from me today. These are my top fashion staples for this summer and if you keep an eye on my insta I'm sure you will see me in them many times! Have a good weekend,
Le grá,

  Long time no seeeee. I can't believe I had abandoned this website for so long 😢. I love writing but final year of college was very busy so this is the first chance I've had to catch up. And what better way to do it then a girls trip itinerary 🌞. We just got back from Split in Croatia so I thought I'd share our itinerary while it's still fresh in my head. Hopefully this will help you if you are planning a trip to Croatia. It has to be one of the most amazing places I have ever been so I am very excited to share it with you. So lets goooooo!! Flights: We booked our flights at the beginning of April, so they were a wee bit of expensive but nothing crazy! We flew with Ryanair from Dublin to Split Airport. Our flight was on a Sunday evening so we drove up and parked the car in the Blue Holiday Carpark. This was so easy to get to the airport and helped make the journey stress free. I use Revolut Premium for my travel insurance which meant I got discounted access to the Lo

Going from stuck in a rut to sticking to a routine

 Hello hello and welcome back to Stay Sásta. It is currently Wednesday evening, it’s dull and to be honest I’m feeling quite meh. Part of me was thinking to myself are you really gunna preach about routine when the most productive thing you did today was make coffee? And the answer to that is yes, yes I am. I think it is so important to be realistic and know that not everyday is going to be perfect and there will be so many days that you don’t stick to your routine. You decide what feels right each day and never put pressure on yourself, just go with the flow. I love having some kind of routine to follow. I’ve gone from getting up at 6am to struggling to get out of bed before 10, but I am working my way back to the early morning club. There’s no right or wrong way to spend your morning so wake up at whatever time works for you. I’m going to be sharing what’s worked for me in trying to get out of a slump. I hope it helps :) 1. UNDERSTAND YOUR WHY: I think this is a key element when you

Hey everyone & welcome to Stay Sásta. I’ve decided to start this blog to tell some stories and share some content. Warning: I’m a complete newbie to this. I love to read blogs and decided it’s about time I start my own. As some of you can probably tell I love Instagram and apps like VSCO but now it’s time to start on a different kind of platform. If you are new to reading blogs just think of this as a script to a vlog, because this is what they came from. Old-school!  Stay Sásta will cover lifestyle, fashion and some travel (eventually). I’m no expert in any of these but I will share my ideas and experiences with anyone who is willing to read them. Some days you will find me talking about a new recipe I tried or a place I’ve visited. Seeing as we all have a little more time on our hands it’s been incredible to see so many people doing things they never would have done, like me right now.   I plan to post 2 blogposts a week covering everything and anything! FYI some of these w
