Here Comes the Summer Sun

Hi beautiful folks of the internet! 

I hope you are doing well and having a great 2019 so far. Mine has been eventful to say the least, I'm just back from a work trip to Las Vegas. 

Crazy inspiring views 

Unfortunately I was sick with some kind of flu for the whole thing, I'm still unwell in fact. Being so sick and so far from home was difficult for me but I'm proud of how I handled it. I even managed to get out for a small bit of sight-seeing on my free day before collapsing into bed ahead of my impending travel. I enjoyed the time in my hotel room doing nothing, I watched a lot of YouTube videos. I also got myself a new black wallet in my second hotel.

Been looking for a cat wallet for a while now.

I can't say that I am a fan of Las Vegas in all honesty, not my scene. I'm not much of a gambler but I loved the scenery of the surrounding desert. Barren, desolate and in need of exploring!  

I read Stephen King's Pet Semetary during my trip. What a fascinating and disturbing book! It made me laugh, cry and most of all it gave me the absolute creeps. The book goes places that shouldn't really be explored and it reels you in for the most horrifying ride that you can imagine. It left me with an unsettled sensation in the pit of my stomach and has reignited my love of Stephen King. Next on my list is Cell.

I have arrived back to beautiful sunshine in Ireland which is a nice surprise. Below are some photos of my summer look today. It is a fairly simple look with classic striped shorts and a big sun hat. 

My sketchers sandals. So comfy. So sparkly 

Thank you Tesco for this awesome sun hat! 

What has your 2019 been like so far? And whats the weather like where you are? I'd love to hear from you.

Until next time,
Phantom Cat

Outfit Post!

Hey guys!

Sorry for my distinct lack of blogging! It's because I... finally got a job!! I work with animals so its quite demanding, it didn't help that I was down with a cold all last week either. Hehe. I survived nevertheless and will hopefully continue to blog regularly once I settle into my new work routine. At least I'll be able to afford some pretty new purchases to blog about ;)

I apologise if I am slow to write back to comments, I do read and REALLY appreciate all your feedback. 

I hope to do some more mythology related posts over the coming weeks, they seem popular and I love researching them!

I was off this weekend and so headed out to pick up some supplies for work, i.e. heavy fleeces and warm socks. I took some of my favourite things in my wardrobe and made an outfit with them! I quite like the contrast between the graphic t-shirt and the very feminine skirt but some people might not, let me know if you think it works! I'm not all that attached to the outfit so if it isn't popular I won't mind abandoning it! I cut the loose string off soon after the photo was taken, I didn't notice it for ages! It's all I can see when I look at this photo! 

The Lost Boys t-shirt 30 Euro-  Fresh in Temple Bar
Black cardigan 12.99 Euro- H&M

The make-up. A simple smoky eye!

Hope you guys enjoyed this little post.
