We’ve all had that moment where you see someone on the street and think, “Oh, I love her bag/top/skirt.”
Some can work up the courage to ask a stranger where they shop, but not all of us are that brave.
This gave us an idea for a feature and we’re hoping to hunt down the country’s most stylish women to quiz them on their favourite fashion finds, style tips and what would feature on their wishlists.
Our first style crush is Sarah Doyle, senior PR executive at Pembroke Communications, Dublin.
A Zara girl at heart, accessories are her kryptonite. Just look at the bag below… Alexander Wang, need we say any more?!
In her own words, here are Sarah’s style essentials…
Alex and Ani bracelets
It was love at first sight for me and Alex and Ani. As a bangle fiend, I love how these combine simple bracelets with collectable charms.
My collection grew rapidly over Christmas as everyone picked up on the hints I gave them and it shows no sign of stopping. My favourites are the flower from my mother and the heart from my boyfriend.
Mi Moneda pendants
Another obsession, I got my silver one from a brilliant Irish jewellery website, lilywho.com, and the rose gold was a birthday present.
They go with every outfit and I love how you can change the coins as you wish. Next on my wishlist is a yellow gold one then my Mi Moneda collection will be complete.
Alexander Wang Rocco
My dream bag. It’s a little battered at this stage but I figure a well used handbag is a well loved handbag. This one is the perfect size for me and I know it will remain a favourite for many years to come.”
If money was no object…I would definitely have a lot more shoes, bags and accessories than I do now. I like to keep my clothes pretty simple and add great jewellery or shoes to liven up the outfit.
With an endless budget, I would go on a Celine, Stella McCartney and Alexander Wang spree but I would also remain faithful to my old favourites, Zara, H&M and Penneys.
