This Saturday, October 28th, marks the start of something beautiful - the bank holiday weekend! This long weekend, we are spending our time wisely in Dublin One, where there are enough shops, cafes, bars, and entertainment to occupy us for the entire weekend.
When you have three days of sweet, sweet spare time, you've got to make it into an occasion. That's why we've devised a plan. Three days in Dublin One. With three perfectly constructed outfits - for shopping, cocktails and brunch - to make the whole weekend as Instagram-friendly as possible!
So, what's first? Shopping, of course.
Shopping
Stradivarius @ Jervis Shopping Centre
Grey & Blue Check Jacket - €29.95 / White T- Shirt - €15.95 /Blue Jeans - €25.95 / Red Shoes - €19.95 / Black Handbag - €19.95 / Red Accessory - €4.95
A head to toe look from one shop? It can be done - and it can be done SO well. Stradivarius is one of Zara's sister stores and though it's not as hugely popular as its big sis, it's just as trend-driven and the prices are right. It's one of the hundreds of stores of Dublin One are open every day of the long weekend. Some of them will be opening late and some will have special discounts and activities in store.
Sometimes people forget that there's a very healthy night scene in Dublin One. The 300-year-old Church will be a hive of activity from Friday night when the annual Halloween Party kicks off with drinks specials, live acts, fancy dress competitions and more. But for the nights out when you're not dressed as Morticia Addams, you'll need a sophisticated ensemble. The outfit below was sourced entirely from Arnotts.
Cocktails

What's a long weekend without brunch? On Bank Holiday Monday we'll be heading to Vice on Middle Abbey Street. We'll be wearing our specially selected brunch outfit from Penneys (thanks, Penneys!) but we encourage anyone to drop into Vice at any stage between Sunday 29th - Tuesday 31st in full facny dress costume where a free treat will be waiting for you.
Speaking of fancy dress and treats, the Celtic Cookie Company, also on Middle Abbey Street, are giving away cookies to costumed kids and adults who drop into the store. The overall Best Dressed winner will get a dozen of their gourmet cookie selection!
