Feeling stuck on Instagram: I have almost no non-followers engaging with my posts. I share pieces twice a week and post around 6 stories daily, yet my website gets almost no traffic. Is it time to give up on Instagram? Feels like too much work for so little reward. Thoughts?

Verona Murphy’s got style and determination.

Fianna Fáil proposes raising the “Above the Shop” grant. However, the two-year vacancy rule remains. Reducing or removing this rule could accelerate renovations, make more properties eligible, and quickly boost housing availability and local economies, revitalizing communities faster.

The fashion industry has a significant environmental impact, but that doesn’t mean people have to sacrifice their sense of style. Sustainable fashion is about making intentional choices to reduce waste, support ethical practices, and still look fabulous.

Owning high-end vintage fashion isn’t about looking back—it’s about embracing the exceptional craftsmanship and unique style that stand out in a world full of the ordinary. It’s a statement that says: “I’m not here to conform—I’m here to make an impression.

What was once reserved for the elite can now be part of anyone's wardrobe. This creates a sense of exclusivity and connection to history that is priceless-yet ironically, it's often highly affordable in the vintage market.

Fashion isn’t just about looking good—it’s about telling a story. Vintage fashion lets you wear a piece of history, crafted by the same hands that dressed royalty. Experience affordable elegance and own a unique garment that offers historical value, all for less than the price of a fine meal.

It’s disappointing that such an important issue like textile recycling and sustainable fashion hasn’t been given more attention. These topics are crucial for addressing environmental concerns and should be part of the broader conversation on sustainability.

Polyester is a synthetic fiber made from plastic, usually derived from petroleum. Alternatives include versions made from recycled plastic, crops, or waste materials.

While environmental concerns are often part of political platforms, detailed positions on textile recycling or sustainable fashion have not been prominently featured by the major parties or candidates in this election cycle.

Fast fashion is great if you love looking like everyone else. I’ll stick to vintage—because nothing says ‘unique’ like wearing clothes older than your social media account.

Fast fashion is out; vintage is in. Why settle for mass-produced mediocrity when you can own a piece of history? If your wardrobe isn’t at least 50% vintage, are you even trying to be stylish or sustainable?

Wearing vintage fashion is like time-traveling—minus the bad hairstyles! This 50s power jacket screams timeless fashion and retro clothing vibes. Sustainable style that feels like Wall Street domination in a jacket. What’s your most unique vintage wardrobe find?

Christmas shopping? Call it tradition. That €50 dog pajama set? It’s family bonding. Splurging on yourself? Santa understands. Overpriced ornaments? Heirlooms in the making. Just remember—retail therapy is cheaper than actual therapy. Merry overspending!

Have you noticed how vintage clothing is redefining luxury fashion in 2024? For me, it’s not just nostalgia—it’s about embracing sustainability, expressing individuality, and owning something truly unique.

Both high-end vintage clothing and fine art transcend their original purposes, becoming symbols of human creativity and cultural heritage. Whether worn or displayed, they inspire, tell stories, and enrich lives in deeply personal ways.

Vintage is the magical word that makes “old” sound cool. It’s not just old clothes; it’s history you can wear. That jacket? It’s survived decades of trends and still looks amazing. Vintage isn’t outdated—it’s iconic. Proof that fashion, gets better with age (and fewer questionable fabrics).
