These Just In!

Hey guys,

As you know we’ve been getting a lot of deliveries and we have some amazing Autumn/Winter pieces in already from Lily, Nissa and Taifun so far and we are in LOVE! You are definitely in for a treat this Autumn/Winter. Now I know we’re still in Summer mode but well who can deny it..A/W is THE season for fashion. If you haven’t read our AW Trends Report then do it here

Here are just a few pieces that are in. Hope you enjoy! Don’t forget to call in because as you know as soon as the size is gone…it’s gone. If you like anything do leave a comment and we will get back to you with sizes available and prices but do like our Facebook page as we post every day. We upload photos of new stock as soon as it comes as well.

We styled some of the new AW14 pieces on our model and we would love to know what you think of them!

Lily AW14/15

Hey guys,

So another brand that we stock and adore is Lily. They are a French brand. They are young and trendy but also anyone of any age can wear their clothes. I, and I know the girls in the shop also feel this way, LOVE their items. They’re fresh, so stylish and unique.

We of course only stock one size 8, 10 etc of each style so if you do like something you should definitely get it because it will most likely be gone.

For this Autumn/Winter Lily have definitely spoiled us. The bright colours, prints and their fabrics are everything girly that Autumn/Winter could be. We are so glad that AW this year is bright and wonderful but as you probably know if you read our AW Trend Report that you can still expect the velvets, dark colours and lace. Lets face it that does define AW but it is still nice to see the bright pastels as well as the citrus colours and Lily have brought us all of that and more.

Here is their lookbook and enjoy! We hope to see you in the store soon!

Floral Power

With the floral print here to stay (will still be here for next season) it is a good time to invest in a good pair of floral prints which will take you into next season as well.

All I can say is that they are a must have for this season. We have gorgeous few pairs of floral print trousers and these Lily ones are just amazing!

One of our stylist, Ana, has them and she is in LOVE with them. They’re comfy and all around perfect.

I have styled them here with one of our Lily tops which you can also get in store or online (here). Pair them with a sandal and you’re instantly chic!

 

Floral Power
We only have two pairs left however so if you’re a size 12 and 14 then lucky you! Our stylist pairs them with her Lily yellow blouse (size 16 available only) and Lily black cut out blazer.
It’s such a stunning outfit but equally you can pair it with a simple white or black top or silk cami and the black Lily blazer.
Be ready this season and the next with floral prints! Let me know what you think.

Styling 3 Work Outfits Part I

We all know we need a good work outfit that is why I decided to write a blog post and take photos of three different work outfits. I have separated them into three parts.

Today’s post will be an office work outfit. But it’s not your traditional office work outfit. I went for one of the colours for this season and added a bit of glamour to it.

Even in the offiice it’s good to show your fashionable style and that is why I had to pair these gorgeous nude Marc Aurel trousers and make it into the not so typical suit with pairing it with the gorgeous Lily cream jacket with cut out detail on the bottom.

The Lily blouse adds that bit of interest with the coral trim on the front and with the gorgeous shoulder detail. I went for the Marc Aurel rose gold belt as an added touch of glamour and pairing it with nude heels, as we did here, or even a metallic stiletto would just make this outfit pop even  more.

OOTD | Coral With Mint

Hey guys,

So sadly this is our part III of our bright coloured trousers mini series and I hope you have enjoyed it and seen something you liked. Everything I’m wearing is in the shop. I love this look and I think it’s such a great spring/summer outfit.

The trousers are amazing, they let you add a bit of colour into your wardrobe without it being too much. It is perfect if you want to add a little colour into your wardrobe.

As mint is one of the key colours this season I, of course, fell in love with this Lily mint blazer. The sleeves are chiffon so it will be perfect when the days get warmer. I paired it with this cute top that is also from Lily and the beauty of this outfit is if you wanted to wear flats, you can.

Let me know what you think of this look? Hope you like it as much as I do. Don’t forget to check out our online store, we have more up this week!

IMG_8967

6. What is your number one item you couldn’t live without?

I couldn’t live without my blazer, it’s so versatile I can pop it over a pair of jeans or dress and I always feel very finished. It can take you from day to night without having to think about it too much.

7. What can customers look forward to this season?

This season fashion seems to be going back to having a few pieces which you can incorporate into your own wardrobe. We are conscious of the importance of getting good value from your clothes and being able to pair your purchases with different items in your own wardrobe. This is essential to give them a new lease of life. We believe in getting good wear out of all your purchases.

We have Ann next.

1. Your name and how long you have been working at O’Donnells?

Ann O’Donnell, the business has been been 68 years opened originally by my parents. It has been ingrained in my bones since a child.

2. What makes O’Donnells stand out?

O’Donnell’s stands out because it has that fashion edge. It’s to the forefront of the fashion for the last century. The customers come from the whole of Ireland, grandmothers, mothers and daughters can be dressed in the one store in an afternoon. It’s concept is unique, we are passionate about our customers and passionate about fashion

3. What are you most looking forward to this season?

I love the cigarette end trousers by Lily. The feminine Lily tops hugely excite me and our Spanish designer Isabel de Pedro never fails to disappoint. I can’t let the season go by without mentioning the lovely lace tops by Elisa Cavaletti.

4. Key trends for this season?

I would have to say the ankle length trousers and the feminine shirt or blouse.

5. Number one item you couldn’t live without?

The number one item I couldn’t live without has to be a jacket, because it can enhance an outfit for an occasion, it looks well on the street and you can wear it indoors and you can transform it into an executive look should the need arise.

6. What can customers look forward to this season?

Customers can look forward to a  multitude of colour, innovative design, versatile clothing that can take you from day to evening.

And last but not least the gorgeous Valerie which I am sure ye all know.

IMG_8961 IMG_8978

4. What are the key trends this spring season?

Lace is still very big, floral prints and a lovely ladylike feel through out.
