On a different note I’m having a lot of conversations lately over luxury sustainable / eco friendly fashion, is it a thing? Absolutely!! One million percent its a thing. You just need to know where to look and what you’re looking for
.
Obviously the first place to look would be at #RecycledFashion spots, either online or in person. @siopaella (who now has a pop up in @officialbrownthomas ) or @designer_exchange_ltd are both physical and online shops in Dublin that you can look around in. Each specialise in handbags, shoes & accessories. Siopaella also has a huge clothing section to browse in store. Following that I would recommend @vestiaireco or @therealreal (neither of which I have personally shopped from, but I hear good reviews, just do your research) and literally, what ever you are looking for you will probably find on these. Like Siopaella & The Designer Exchange, if you’re going on holidays to a city, do some research into vintage / luxury vintage shops in the destination and check why they have online prior to going over
.
Also check out some awesome designers trying to make a difference to the planet and the world. @stellamccartney is a 100% vegan brand and if I had all the $$$ I would buy some of her gorgeous pieces 😍 or @eileenfisherny @shopdoen or for bags @gunas_newyork
.
The next option would be rentals. If it is a special event and you’re looking for the perfect dress, shoes or bag but can’t justify the price tag or the fact that you’ll probably never wear it again, look at the various fashion rental businesses coming about - like (my favourite fashion forward sustainable business) @thenuwardrobe or @borrowerboutique . A lot of options and companies to look at here
.
Following on from that I recommend keeping an eye out for clothes swaps, in Ireland we are lucky we have two awesome groups organising such events - @sustainablefashiondublin & @swapsiesdublin . You never know what you will find at these. The last event I went to, I swapped a Juicy Couture trench coat that I hope found a new lease of life else where 💚
The last thing I can recommend (continued in comments) ....... Looking over the lake that if I only had the small sum of €28,000,000. I would buy 🤑

What I learnt today
1. You might be the adult, you can also get lost in a maze and children have to save you #ExcellentParentingByDoyleToday
2. I knew this already, Russborough House is stunning and the garden grounds are equally if not more beautiful
3. You can get some nice vegan treats here by tweaking some sambos & salads around and a delicious vegan chocolate dessert
4. You can get some amazing vegan, cruelty free & Irish owned @celticcandlesireland here in gift shop. Personally I’m very happy with this as I love my home smelling like a spa, a forest or something else that smells heavenly ❤️

#WicklowMountains #GardenGoals Yes to dinner views like this 💚

Nothing like stumbling across a GORGEOUS table setting, ready to go (with gin and all) in a forest over looking a lake

Hi Oisín if you’re reading this, this will always work for as a surprise for me for a special occasion or for just a random night - #YoullGetAllTheBrowniePoints

#WicklowMountains #DinnerViews #RandomFindings Skye is also happy to be back in Wicklow 💚

#HiWeLiveHereAgainNow 1. Moved out of Dublin & back to Wicklow and couldn’t be happier, so expect a lot more photos like this 💚
.
2. @perfectirishtrip is up and running on the inter web and I couldn’t be happier. Thought it was tough building and creating the site over the last year, but actually I realise now is when all the real tough work starts trying to get it out there for the world full of people that I don’t know or interact with to see. Hope they’re excited to get to know me 🙃
.
3. I’m up for a blog award with @beautyblogawards 🤯😱 I’m quite confused that people actually considered me to be in the running for an award, but delighted to say that they have. Other people in my category (Best Organic Influencer 🙈) are - @rozannapurcell @rosanna_davison @hollywhite.ie @thefoodmedic @theskinnerd  so it’s a bit what the f*ck and I thought there was a mistake made, but I then got some emails to prove it’s not, so I’m going to roll with it 💚 Anyone who would like to send a vote my way, send me a quick email and I’ll send you the link and it will only take two clicks and you’re done or else I have the link in the comments below 😊
Thank you to anyone who voted for me so far. I have done literally nothing with my Irish Mountain Child website or @getitgiveitpodcast in months as I have just been too busy, but looking forward to getting back to them both soon (now that @perfectirishtrip is finally live). Still plant based, still trying to be as ethical / sustainable & as eco friendly as I can and have actually learnt a lot over packing up one home and temporarily moving to another for a few months while we keep an eye out for our forever country home (it’s an adventure alright 🤪) Anyway back to the @beautyblogawards, I think it’s crazy I’m up for nomination, but delighted to be considered next to such big names with MAJOR followings, so again thank you to anyone who helped 💚

#PerfectIrishTrip #UpForAnAwardAndDontKnowWhy 
#ImHereForAGoodTimeNotALongTime Read in a Borat voice -
“Hi myna name is Saoirse, I like you, I like this garden behind me. I hope one day it is like a mine. Great success”
.
Anyway, yes future green gardens full of plants and trees for the garden would be ‘a great success’!
