We Are Beirt | Aoife B. Burke & Miriam Burke
Post by CM I’m not much of a nail varnish person, preferring a natural, jaggedy edged look. Just ask TM; she’s forever trying to get me to sort out my nails. It’s not that they’ve been bitten to the quick or are monstrously long, it’s just that I tend to neglect them in favour of […]
MorePost by TM Around this time of year, the start of autumn, you often hear mutterings about not wearing white after Labor Day. It’s a fashion rule I have always wondered about and never quite understood. Why shouldn’t one wear a certain colour after a certain time of year? Isn’t ‘after Labor Day’ the whole year up […]
MorePost by CM If we only use 10% of our brains what’s the other 90% doing – moping around being all grey and lumpy? Experts have repeatedly said that that’s cray talk; we use 100% of our brains but perhaps not to its full capacity. So, by sorta using the whole 10% myth in conjunction with […]
MorePost by TM Are you as ready for autumn as I am? I heard people moaning about the end of summer on the radio today, talking about the days shortening, the onset of SADS and the kiddies going all the way back to get some knowledge and, well, I just could not relate. We had […]
MorePost by CM Twitter has been all aflutter today with not only a surprise Friends reunion and the marriage of a former certain cast member’s ex-husband to the mother of his 6 kids (did he say “Rachel” at the altar by mistake, haha?) but the unveiling of Emma Stone’s new hair-do at the Venice Film […]
MorePost by TM A few months ago we published a good few posts covering awards. There were the Golden Globes, the Baftas etc etc and finally (kind of) the Oscars which is traditionally accepted as the full stop to awards season. Except…it’s not. Awards season doesn’t begin or end it just has mountains, hills and […]
MorePost by CM I am at my wit’s end with office attire. At. My Wit’s. End. I know many officey environments like the Credit Union and the bank have uniforms – polyester mix too-large jacket and too-short boot cut trousers mostly – but what about solicitors and accountants and others of that ilk? I know, […]
MorePost by TM We had a brilliant children’s encyclopaedia in our home growing up. The one-volume tome was thumbed through so frequently the hardback cover had to be sellotaped back on muliple times before finally snapping and crumbling to dust. The book itself has been buried under a mountain of childhood bric-a-brac since we graduated […]
MorePost by TM Like most children (I think) when I was a little girl I didn’t really notice how old people looked. Anyone my parents’ age and older were just well, old in my book and how they looked or dressed or presented themselves didn’t bother me. While I always admired my grandmother and knew […]
MorePost by CM I’m turning 30 on Sunday and I’m so excited, that I just can’t hide it! I’m so excited! I’m so excited, I’m so… scared. Yes indeed, TM and I are turning the big Three-Oh and actually I’m mostly really quite fine with this transition – really, really fine with it. Really. It’s the […]
