Thanks to the tip from Whisty Blogs Dublin Fashion, I headed over the Lucy’s Lounge during my lunch break today (and I really needed a break). Lucy’s Lounge is a great little vintage and thrift shop across(ish) from Urban Outfitters in Temple Bar–just look for the pepto-pink building and unicorn.

There’s an insane amount of stuff [...]

Sunday, the hubby and I walked over to Harold’s Cross Stadium for the carboot sale. We’ve been dancing around the idea of buying things for the new baby, but felt pretty nervous about getting anything too early. After seeing the little guy on Friday, everything seems much for real. So here you go, Baby’s first [...]

Oh Dublin Flea, I do love thee.

I found so many amazing things at the Dublin Coop Flea Market last month, it was almost too good to be true. I went a bit mad bouncing from stall to stall collecting all my little treasures. There were several lovely people with amazing vintage jewelry at incredible prices. [...]

Sweet little ensemble of some newly acquired duds. I was trying to soak every last sun ray from summer by pairing this vintage white linen pleated skirt with a cute calico cotton top.

Indiana at Adored Austin started a style chain recently were she took inspiration from other gal’s style to make it her own. Well, I continued the chain by pairing a plaid shirt with a pencil skirt. I love this look and it was easy to pull together with some newly acquired super thrifty pieces and [...]

I scored some great finds in charity shops around Dublin. My favourite shops (because of the causes) are Oxfam and Enable Ireland. Although [...]
