Naoimh goes Off The Rails at Dylan Bradshaw

temp
I’m appearing (unless, as they say, I end up on the cutting-room floor) in the October 6th Off the Rails programme talking about next season’s handbag trends. So who’s my go-to girl, to ensure I’m lookin’ fab (ahem) on the telly? Karen in Dylan Bradshaw has done my make-up before. She’s quick, talented and really friendly. Using her super brush skills and giving me a sneak
Naoimh dresses up at A Wear for the Prudence Best Buy Beauty Awards

temp
The Prudence Best Buy Beauty Awards are taking place tonight in the Gibson Hotel and because I’ve been so busy over the last few weeks, this event has snuck up on me and once again I’m left struggling with what to wear. My go-to, get-out-of-jail card is always a floral dress. So I rushed down to Awear on my lunch break yesterday and picked up this
Trend spotting at the Fringe Festival launch in association with Absolut Vodka

temp
I went along to the launch of Dublin’s Fringe Festival on Monday evening with my very talented photographer friend Emma who takes the style-stalker pics for our Prudent People feature. I’m wearing a H&M dress I bought when I visited Copenhagen, I get so much wear out of it that it’s the perfect buy. I love Emma’s combination of bright red lippy, vintage scarf, floral blazer and
Monochromatic Magic from Coast and M&S

temp
So, after my fashion panic last week some very generous work colleagues came to my rescue. Dara, editor of House and Home lent me a Coast dress that she’d worn to a wedding a week before. She’d even bought it on sale so she’s a very frugal friend. And Annette (who you know!) gave me a pink pashmina for a pop of colour. I made a
Naoimh finds lots of things to covet at Covet!

temp
Getting invited to visit Covet and preview its sale before Saturday was like being sprinkled by my own fashion fairy godmother. Stepping inside this beautiful boutique I felt like I’d been transported back in time to a chic Parisian boudoir in the 1920s - hence the black and white vintage style photo. I immediately spotted these gorgeous sparkly Miu Miu sandals with plush velvet bows. Now if
Caped crusader at River Island

temp
I’m a big fan of Gossip Girl. I own all three box sets and have been known to spend an entire weekend catching up with New York’s Upper East Side social elite. Here’s a picture of me looking prim and proper at the A/W press day for River Island, channelling Blair Waldrof’s preppy style in their gorgeous grey wool cape accessorized with knee socks, obligatory
Happy birthday to me: Naoimh celebrates with a dress from Cos, some bubbly and Laduree macarons

temp
The weather was a little questionable on Saturday with the cloudy skies threatening rain: however we persevered with a prudent picnic in the park. Lots of sparkling wine was drunk (and spilled!) and a new dress that I bought on sale in COS was worn. If you haven’t heard of this label then make sure to visit their flagship store on Regent Street the next
Naoimh visits Copenhagen and discovers Danish style

temp
Have you been to Copenhagen? It’s surprising how many people haven’t. And if you’re one of them, then start planning that city break. I’ve been twice and I love it. The fashion, the architecture, the cycling culture, the design and the Danish pastries of the edible and male variety are both yummy! One of my favourite things to do is to people watch and I think it’s
Naoimh Checks out TheO at Dylan Bradshaw and Get Him to the Greek

temp
Here I am just before going into watch Russell Brand’s new movie Get him to the Greek. I’m wearing a blazer from Reiss that I bought in the sale two years ago, okay it cost me €200 but it was an investment buy. The dress is from Zara (€40), Topshop ballet pumps (€38) and scarf (€18). My bag is from M&S and was a birthday
Naoimh finds two new ways to wear wedges

temp
As promised in an earlier post here are some outfit posts of me wearing my new, black suede wedges. I love them but as a novice in heels, they have taken some getting used to. Out and about the other day, a girl behind me in the queue at Butlers said they looked cool and she was very impressed with my ability to walk in them. All an
