The Temple Bar based clothing shop is much more than a second-hand store. 

It’s an Aladdin’s cave of pre-worn and pre-loved clothes that are in excellent condition and sold at excellent prices. A quick lunchtime browse at the shop brought up these 6 gorgeous dresses that are absolutely ideal for a weekend brunch.  

1. Luxury Leopard

The perfect Autumn/Winter dress does not exi-…

The dark background is a gorgeous contrast for the soft and sophisticated palette of the woodlands and woodland creatures. With a pair of over-the-knee boots, this is a look that will never go out of fashion.

3. Pink

  • €35 from Topshop
  • Size: 12 

If you’re not ready for summer to be over just yet, then this cupid pink is the best way to keep some bright colour in your wardrobe.

With midi-length dresses and skirts all the rage this summer, the asymmetric hem adds an interesting dimension that will make you stand out.

4.  Stripe

  • €29 from Zara
  • Size: Large 

A stripey dress is always a classic, but if the stripes are designed ever so slightly wrong then you’re in the danger zone of looking like a prison inmate or a barcode label. However, the contrast of the horizontal and vertical stripes adds an unexpectedly high-fashion element, that will look much more expensive than Zara. 

5. Snakeskin

  • €49 from Ghost
  • Size: Medium

Another animal print that is bang on trend at the moment is snakeskin print. The flattering and skimming material on this dress will make you feel as slinky as a snake.

This embroidered smock dress is sure to make you stand out from the crowd with its unusual shape and the eye-catching contrasts of colour. The red against the black is particularly striking and sure to get you in the mood for Christmas.  

Only 102 days to go!
