Our fair city..

I had to travel up to the big shmoke for a meeting yesterday.. As always the Irish weather was unpredictable which meant choosing an appropriate outfit quite a difficult task. I got there in the end though and had quite an enjoyable day!

A trip to Dublin would not be complete without a browse around the shops and I picked up a couple of bits in Forever 21, post to follow. I also saw fabulous Kurt Geiger heels but alas my budget would not stretch that far!

Then I took the popular 46a out to Dun Laoghiare for my meeting at IMAGE magazine.  Dun Laoghaire is so pretty with various boats and fishing vessels docked in the harbour, I fell in love with the picturesque town. Charming walkways and benches dotted here and there made it very easy to indulge my inner romantic and daydream a little!

The town also has a cosmopolitan feel with numerous restaurants bars and cafes to delight in. While I love the city itself I thought Dun Laoghaire had a relaxed vibe while still keeping up with its big brother.

Here are a couple of pictures I took, as a friend of mine quipped I was an "up for the dayer". Perhaps a little bit of town mouse country mouse syndrome going on if I'm honest... I do have a yearning to move up to the capital so let's hope this dream is realised in the not too distant future!
