In the Abercrombie & Fitch store on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan, there are no windows. There are no signs of the outside world, only tanned, muscled young men and women gyrating to the heavy beats of what can only be described as hip-hop lite. The brand’s signature scent, Fierce, is pumped through the air conditioners [...]
So today I’m going to see Robert Fisk, in conversation with John Bowman, in the National Concert Hall with E (sorry, E, you don’t get an alias). Beforehand we’re going to Milano for dinners (yums!), and it’s lashing rain outside so today’s outfit called for warmth, layers and comfort – I don’t care what anybody [...]
I love A/W fashion collections because, aside from the fact that there’s a whole load of knitwear, layered fabrics and autumnal patterns, the footwear selections are second to none. Boots are the perfect antidote to – or, rather, protection against – the shoddy Irish weather. If you can get the right boot selection, you can [...]

Wine, that is. On Friday I went to work with a feeling much akin to relief – thankfully it was finally Friday, after the week that seemed to be neverending. My outfit? I decided on it the night before, having one of those rare organised moments, and it was borne of a desire to clash [...]
Feeling crafty?
Afor creativity, reading other fashion bloggers’ blogs really gets me thinking about more creative ways to wear my clothes. In fact, since I started doing this site, and attempting to monitor what I wear (even though yes, I know, I only do it about once a week – I blame the weather and the [...]
So the weather in Ireland has been nigh on apocalyptic for the past few days. Torrential rain, ferocious gusts. . . we’ve really been getting the brunt of whatever low pressure horror is passing overhead. Yesterday and the day before, I risked life and limb to get to work (people really cannot drive in the [...]
