Summer Occasion Wear at TV3

We're entering into a busy time of summer events and whether you've got a day at the races planned or you're a guest at a wedding it's important to get the right look for that special event.  I recently styled a few looks for the Saturday AM show on TV3  working with Williot for menswear and Love Cherish, Harper's Hats and  Element clothing for our ladieswear. There was lots of bright colour and print which is so typical of summer style as well as a great jumpsuit for those that want something a bit different.

Spring Into Summer At Douglas Court Shopping Centre

I'm only just getting round to posting a few pics from a summer style workshop I hosted out in Douglas Court shopping centre a few weekends ago. I always pick up a few bits and pieces when I'm out there and there are some great shops out there from Dunnes Stores (I love the Savida range), Quiz and Icon to name but a few.  Here are just a few of the looks from the event.

Opera Lane SS18 Photoshoot

I recently styled a S/S18 campaign shoot for Opera Lane, taking top new season trends and interpreting them the Opera Lane way.  There are so many trends I love this season especially all the gorgeous floaty midi dresses and the brightly coloured separates.

RSVP and Opera Lane Photoshoot

Here's a few images from the Opera Lane shoot I styled in this month's RSVP Magazine.  I really wanted to show the more tailored side to Winter dressing and add in some gorgeous texture.

The Saturday AM Show

On Saturday I was up in Dublin styling looks for Douglas Court Shopping Centre for my regular styling feature on TV3's Saturday AM show. For this slot I focused on choosing looks that were really going to help your wardrobe transition from Summer to Autumn.  The weather is so crazy at the moment that I know people want to buy great basic pieces that they can style up depending on the weather.
Here are a few pics from the show.  Sorry about the crappy quality they were just a few quick shots from my phone.  If you missed the show and want to check it out you click on the links below:

I was super excited to meet Hughie from Big Brother on the show!

Here I am with the girls from Lockdown in their second looks.

All clothing is from Quiz, New Look, Verso and Vero Moda all available at Douglas Court Shopping Centre.

Menswear Photoshoot

I used to never really be that into menswear fashion and styling preferring instead the constantly changing looks of womenswear.  I think a lot of it had to do with the limited choice that the guys had available to them in our Irish stores and also because well let's face it I'm a girl and I wear women's clothes so naturally my strong interests were going to lie there.  All that changed about a year and a half ago when I was asked to style a menswear shoot for The Weekend section in The Examiner and for the first time I really took notice of what was on offer for the guys out there.  The high street stores on Opera Lane have really upped their menswear and of course we have an amazing selection of quality rigouts in places like Salingers and A Suit That Fits.  

I was lucky enough to style a very special menswear shoot with the uber talented photographer Ricky Mangala (seriously remember this name), male model extraordinaire Nathan Adams with the fabulous Andrew Cronin from The Edge Hair Design and the lovely Emma O'Brien MUA.  Our brief was to keep everything slick, modern and stylish using things like Armani campaigns as our inspiration.  I sourced all the clothing from Topman and River Island and was amazed at the good quality tailoring available in both places.

Hope you like these images....Enjoy.xx.
