Debs, Dresses and Deadlines

Debs, Dresses and Deadlines

September is super busy for Mammies! Kids are back to school, LC exam results are out, JC results are coming, college places are being offered and its Debs season!

For Debs (wedding guest/special occasion), we love MyKindOfDress.com Visit their store Unit 1, Fashion City, Ballymount or order online. The dresses are affordable and beautiful; we especially love the lilac pictured above – stunning for debs.

Baloot Accessories has bejewelled bags, embellished hair bands and fancy belts. See https://www.baloot-clothing.com/
For our daughters Debs we’re heading to Lynda at Neon Trees Balbriggan for make-up. She is incredible (she did my look above). Lynda is friendly, affordable and you can visit her at PA Salon or message about house calls via her Insta https://www.instagram.com/neon_trees_makeup/

Advanced Hair Design is affordable, and the girls are so friendly. Pop in for a chat with Trisha about styles for your daughter.
Corsages are back in fashion and Willow & Wisp Flowers have some gorgeous ones to complete the debs look.

Whatever their Leaving Cert results are, they have completed 14 years of school, and that’s worth celebrating! Hopefully they got the results they wanted but if they didn’t, it’s not the end of the world. There are other ways to their dream course; via a PLC for example. It’s so important they understand these results, from one snapshot in time, do not define them. After all her hard work, we will be treating our daughter!

We love to support Irish brands and here are some of our favourites….
