Autumn Essentials

-

 It is finally THE BEST TIME OF THE YEAR!! My all time favourite season is here at last. I know this time of year isn't for everyone but in this post I'll be sharing some of my favourite things about Autumn and how to get into the spirit. 



1. Candles:

Autumn candles are the best smelling candles ever!! Bath And Bodyworks will forever have my heart. I'm so lucky that my cousin sent us over a few this year (Hi Tara), so that should keep me going for a little while. TK Maxx also have a great selection of candles for this time of year too, the 3 wick ones are my fav and last so long.

2. Cosy Jammies:

Is there anything better than new fluffy jammies from Pennys? You can never have enough pairs and now with college online more of an excuse to invest in a few..



3. Knitwear:

Anyone else after swapping their summer wardrobe for their Autumn wardrobe? There is no better feeling. I love chunky knits and cosy jumpers so I am more than excited to get wearing them all again. It's my favourite time of year for fashion.

4. Blazers:

I loveee blazers for Autumn this year because I think they're so versatile. You can dress them up or down and layer under them which is a necessity for Autumn.



5. Stationary:

Considering most of Autumn will be spent on Zoom calls it's fun to invest in some pretty Autumnal stationary to get you through.

6. Skincare:

I always try and take extra care of my skin this time of year. We really want to avoid the dry lips and hands that this colder weather can do to us. I'm currently on the hunt for some new skincare bits so send me on any recommendations and I might do a piece on this.

7. Good Movies & Programmes:

These darker evenings mean one thing- curled up on the couch watching something good on tv. My friends were saying how Gilmore Girls makes them feel so Autumnal and I totally agree, it's such a classic for this time of year. "You've Got Mail" is my all time favourite Autumn movie (It's also set in New York so I obviously loved it right away). It's the best time of year for all the spooky halloween movies aswell, anyone remember Halloweentown?



8. Hot Drinks:

Don't get me wrong, I am iced coffees biggest fan, but I do love a good hot chocolate or caramel latte. I had my first pumpkin spiced latte recently and I'm not 100% sure how I feel about it, I might give them another go. Get yourself some good syrups and start making some cosy drinks to keep you going.


Hopefully these Autumn essentials will help you get into the spirit. Keep an eye on my instagram https://www.instagram.com/mollai_/ for all the Autumnal vibes. Chat soon!

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

My best purchases of 2021

 Long time no see….. the amount of blogpost drafts I have from the past 6 months is a lil embarrassing. I’ve been in such a writing slump but I finally have some creativity coming back to me. Writing blogposts was what started my lil page so it’s about time I gave it more attention. I would love Stay Sásta to become a place where you can click in and find something to read or discover a new product, like a mini magazine. So to start the year off I’m going to be talking all about my best purchases of 2021, and the things I think are worth spending money on so let’s goooo: 1. VEJA VENTURI’S: I debated buying these for so long. I had a pair of white chunky runners from Public Desire (some of you might remember them from Éadaí SOS or Instagram) but I wore them to death! Like to the point there was a hole in the sole. So seeing as I wore them daily I decided to invest in a pair of good quality runners. I really like Veja’s and when I found the Venturi style I was obsessed!! So I saved my pe
