So, the second in the series of style vids we did for RTE Red Radar last year. I’m here talking about cycling and wearing knuckledusters when cycling and wearing lots of dangly gold necklaces when cycling and wearing hats that blow off in the wind when cycling and committing every safety issue known to man [...]

Happy New Year guapas! I’m already in Jaysus-I-Need-A-New-Wardrobe mode. This video doesn’t help. Above is an outfit I chose last year when RTE asked myself Jennie and Sarah to come up with something for Two Tube‘s Today I’m Wearing. I think I mention how snakeprint isn’t something you usually see, and cowl necks are having [...]

What to do if you see this man

HIDE Shield your eyes from those chest-baring t-shirts. Recoil in horror from those low-slung, skinny jeans (why are his legs skinnier than mine?) Duck from that anti-gravity bouffant. The man jewellery! The guyliner! The garish shirts! The hipster bum! Noel Fielding in a hipster run-off with Justin Bieber. I don’t watch the X-Factor, but I [...]

A Special WWIWT Award

WWIWT are holding there own awards ceremony. Well that’s a complete exaggeration; we won’t be asking people to manically vote around the clock for days, possibly weeks on end (again…). There’s really just one award. That I’ll be choosing. Just for the craic. The award for the MOST annoying celebrity of the moment goes to; [...]

What happens when you cross SJP with Batman?

Raise your hand if you have a soft spot for Sarah Jessica Parker? Who couldn’t love her as the happy-go-lucky, vivacious, if slightly narcissistic, Carrie Bradshaw of the nineties? And for those who are slightly older, her first big screen debut in Hocus Pocus? Gave me nightmares for years…don’t think that was the point really [...]

What to wear when you’re Riri the Role Model? Not a lot…

Rihanna – you love her, you hate her, one might say she’s like Marmite, but everyone definitely has an opinion on her. Personally, I love her music (ahem guilty pleasure I know), but who can resist shaking yo booty to her bouncin pop-tastic tuuuunes? S&M being a personal favourite of mine – less of that [...]

What to wear…when you’ve been Wendy Denged?

Look at this woman (on the right) – so beautiful! So poised! So regal! So elegant! And look at those polished gnashers – are they sparkling? Oh my! Well you just wait until she BITCH SLAPS THE SHIZZ OUTTA YOU. This here statuesque beauty is none other than Wendi Deng, wife of Ruport Murdoch by [...]

What to wear when you’re a Mollycoddled Celebrity Rugrat?

So Victoria and David Beckham became parents for the fourth time to a baby girl, Harper Seven, just over two weeks ago. I’d say that Harper ‘wan has been inundated with gifts from Hollywood’s Glitterati and is gonna be giving Suri Cruise a run for her money as best dressed mini-sleb. Fashion designers all over [...]

What to wear when “Transforming” the World

Yes I know she’s only bleedin’ beautiful, god’s finest specimen, with the longest legs known to Shergar and exotic features befitting a Brazilian Bombshell, but Rosie-Bleedin, Bog Off-Whitely I am SICK  to my eyeballs of looking at you. She is EVERYWHERE, and when I say everywhere, I mean hogging up as much trashy gossip space [...]

It’s only Week Three and we’ve already seen some amount of drinking, partying and clubbing in the Brit’s version of Jersey Shore-cleverly re-titled, ‘Geordie Shore’. Actually, scrap that. The first episode following Newcastle’s ‘Guido’s’ and ‘Guidette’s’, had enough fake tan, bare flesh, Jagerbombing,  jacuzzi-boobing(?-only way I can describe it), smooching, mauling (when smooching borderlines on dangerous bodily [...]

So the BAFTA tv awards were held last night. If one were to generalise, the sartorial prowess of TV celebs is weak when compared with their silver screen counterparts, is it not? Let’s take a look at the acceptable dresses shall we? (I say acceptable because to be honest, there aren’t any gowns worth salivating [...]

I don’t know about you guys but I am over Big Fat Gypsy Weddings, Towies, tangoed limbs and badly applied false eyelashes. I am ready to watch some TOFFS! (Queen Elizabeth and her hubby are knocking around Dublin… Coincidence? Yeah probably…) For those of you who haven’t seen Made in Chelsea, GOOD GOD! Get thee [...]

What to wear…at the Eurovision?

Star-spangled banners how are ya? The Eurovision: a towering monument to all that is flashy, trashy and sequinned. How did Eurovision 2011 fare? There was a lot of concentration on traditional costumery (really?), feathers, gnome hats and cleavage. Aideen, Jennie and Sarah cast a brief eye over the sartorial offerings.         Sarah [...]

RTE Red Radar Filming

So Jennie, Sarah and Aideen ambled into RTE yesterday to film some short videos for the recently launched RED Radar website. The site is aimed at the youf’ audience and taps into all that is alternative in Irish music, style and fashion. Rather. We each did a piece about what we were wearing (clothes, should [...]

  Now for the second part of our less-pikey-more-boho Circus styling shoot.  And a special thanks to the Mother for some very impressive photography skills.  

  LAYDEES AND GENTLEMEN, Step Riiight Up…or something along the lines of that-I’m not too in tune with my inner Ringmaster, but I should be for it seems the Circus is having a bit of a moment right now. Rightly so I say, did you know that our own born and bred Duffy’s circus has been [...]

An Afternoon with Off The Rails

 So for anyone who caught us on Off The Rails last night you might have noticed us prancing around a carpark in lots of tulle, leather, heavy make-up and some very high heels. We don’t usually potter around the streets of Dublin in the bright of the day like so, it was our take on Black Swan [...]

What’s Hot? Boobs are IN Bums are IN Legs are IN Tan tight are IN (yay! who else was looking forward to this fashion revival?) Santa costumes are IN Ditto for pirate costumes – although the sea wench version, not the historically murderous, violent, male version Holograms are IN Pre-pubescent and slightly simple-looking gay BFF’s [...]

Track-Attack

  Now I am a big fan of The Tracksuit. Never been ashamed to admit it. I have a collection of hoodies and sweatpants that aggressively compete with my flirty little dresses and vast shoe collection for wardrobe space. For every instance recorded of me dressing up in fine gowns and layers of jewellery, I [...]

Boardwalk Empire Headfluff (Guest Spot)

There’s a lot of hoo-ha about Sky Atlantic and the onslaught of must-see, best-thing-since-Sopranos, new dramas. Eulogizing and hyperbole aside (how much money are Sky pumping into this venture? And why did they decide to wheel out Tom Selleck?), there is one irrefutable point to note. Boardwalk Empire is riddled with fashion. Yes – we [...]
