This week’s Curated With Cassie is about brunch burgers and boobs!

Cassie Stokes

This week’s Curated With Cassie has brunch burgers and make-up transformations… but let’s start with the boobs.

If, like me, you are a woman with big boobs, you will know how difficult it is to find a bra that’s both supportive and comfortable – let alone a bra that you can do a full workout in. Finding a gym bra that holds you in, gives you support, feels comfortable and also looks good with the rest of your gym gear is a difficult task.

Irish stylist Justine King and influencer Ashley Kehoe are two ladies who have also found it difficult to find the perfect bra for high-impact training at the gym. So, we all got together for this week’s Curated With Cassie to find a bra that was up to the task. Justine chose a range of different bras at different price points that are all available on the high street, and we got bouncing to put them to the test.

Watch this week’s episode here or below to find out which bra was our clear winner.

 

Another exciting part of this week’s episode was having my make-up done to transform me into looking like one of Ireland’s favourite influencers, Niamh Cullen.

Marcella O’Meara is an Irish MUA who has been making waves on Instagram with some of his incredible transformations. His specialty is turning himself into well known Irish celebrities, including the likes of Vogue Williams, DJ Tara Stewart and – brilliantly – former newsreader and all round queen Anne Doyle.

I set Marcella the task of turning my face into Niamh’s, which definitely wasn’t easy considering Niamh has incredible cheekbones and an enviable jawline. It was a bit scary when he started gluing down my eyebrows, but wait until you see what he achieved!

After a workout and a makeover I needed a feed, so for the final segment of this week’s Curated With Cassie, myself and influencer James Kavanagh went to Bang Bang in Phibsborough.

If you haven’t been to this cute little restaurant on the northside of Dublin city, you have to go and try it out. It’s the perfect neighbourhood spot filled with locals – even at 11am on a Friday it’s hard to find a spot to sit.

The cafe is one of James’ favourite brunch spots,  and we went to try one a dish that he’s completely obsessed with: the brunch burger. It’s basically everything you would get in a fry, sandwiched into a brioche bun and topped with some mayo and relish. Even writing this is making my mouth water… You can see us making short work of it here.

There’s a new episode of Curated With Cassie landing on Her’s YouTube channel every Monday. Make sure that you never miss an episode by liking and subscribing to the show.
