Aloha !
So we are nearing Summer.. 9 weeks exactly. And I AM SO FRICKING EXCITED! The nights get longer, the weather gets hotter, the sea gets warmer, ice creams get colder, life basically gets better. :) And who else loves the smell of grass and suncream? I am guilty as charged. However, to get me through these next 2 months I can focus my time (when I should really be revising :/) on Spring outfit shopping which I have always found incredibly difficult. Living in Ireland, Spring tends to mean rain with the odd dry or occasionally sunny day. This means a coat or jacket is required on all outings.I have a few below. So here are a list of my "Spring Favourites". Enjoy!
1. A cardigan is a definite Spring essential. Here is a gorgeous navy one I got from Pull and Bear that will go with anything and at €13 it's a bargain! Pull and bear cardigan
2. A statement jumper is always worth having. And these will brighten up any rainy day!

3. Next is a leather jacket because if you don't already have one these are a wardrobe essential. Perfect for toughening up a girly ensemble or making an outfit out of a jean and t-shirt combo. Obviously one can pay hundreds for a proper leather one but here are some cheaper ones for all of us students out there :)

4. Now onto my favourites: dresses! I'm a sucker for a pretty tea dress or a vintage lace number so here are some of my favourite Spring day dresses.
http://www.bershka.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/bershkaie/en/bershkasales/706511/3803001/Bershka%2Bbutton-up%2Blace%2Bdress/712 A gorgeous little white lace skater dress and it's on sale! Get shopping quick girls! I'd love this for Spring with a some little black boots, a leather jacket and some statement jewellery.
http://www.bershka.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/bershkaie/en/bershkasales/706511/3621018/BSK%2Bcross-back%2Bdress/966 Another Bershka dress because it's so darn cute! Vans or suede ankle boots and knee highs and you're good to go!

It's the kind of outfit I'd see on someone when I'm out and wish I was wearing it.
http://eu.riverisland.com/women/dresses/day--t-shirt-dresses/Orange-polka-dot-floral-print-swing-dress-653018 What is the perfect outfit for a sunny Spring day? A bright orange swing dress!
http://www.asos.com/Vila/Vila-Printed-Drop-Waist-Dress/Prod/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=3747734&cid=8799&Rf1012=4456&sh=0&pge=0&pgesize=204&sort=-1&clr=Olympianblue This is the type of dress I'd never be able to pull off. But some day when I'm tanned and my hair is way longer I might do.
5. Finally bottoms. I have been loving skorts recently here are two I love. http://www.boohoo.com/skorts/bree-bold-floral-print-skort/invt/azz33631

Also Mom Jeans are super cool! Teamed with a crop top or loose cami tucked in and a little pair of strappy sandals they pull off the ultimate "effortlessly sexy" look.
