A Taste of Mexico

Last weekend myself and the boy went for a wander around town because the weather was so nice, until it turned on us!!!

We decided to try out this new Mexican food place in Smithfield called Kchido. I had to take a quick outfit snap because I loved the street art!

Ankle Grazer Jamie Jeans / Topshop (here)
Cat Eye Sunglasses / Topshop (here)
Sleeveless Collared Shirt / American Apparel
Western Waist Belt / ASOS (here)
Lace Up Sandals / Penneys Primark (in store now)

Kchido is a hipster's paradise where food is ordered from a standalone food truck based in a cool garage setting. The atmosphere is laid back with pallets crafted into benches and tables, painted in multicolour while blankets and cushions add comfort to the equation. 

The food was delish and worth a trip while there's fresh coffee on site too for all you caffeine addicts! As for me, while I loved my quesidilla. But I still see myself back in Boojum for my fave Mexican fix next time I'm in the area. 


 Hope you enjoyed this outfit of the day come food review post!!!

Quick & Simple Storage Idea

This cute storage idea is literally the best thing ever and it's so cheap, quick and simple. All you need is:
Mason Jar- I got mine for €1.50 in IKEA
Assorted ribbon of choice- I got mine in Hickeys but recently picked up more in Tiger stores approx €2 per ribbon roll
Cut a long section of ribbon and tie it in a bow around the lid of the bottom section of the jar! It's that quick and simple, but the result is gorgeous. I doubled up the bow using a different style ribbon in the same colour. 

 I made one for my make up remover cotton pads and one for my cotton buds. They just look so cute on my dresser! Plus closing the lids prevent dust settling on the cotton pads. It really helps declutter and organise my dresser. 

Hope you enjoyed this little storage idea. Let me know if you want more tips. 

Have a great week!
