We Are Beirt | Aoife B. Burke & Miriam Burke
Post by CM Fashion advertisements are different from others in that most of the time they feature beautiful people from the silver screen or the runway looking 100 times more beautiful than humanly possible, or by throwing an eye-catching curve-ball at you with their creative chutzpa. For all the overly air-brushed beauty campaigns, making us […]
MorePost by C.M. I was sitting in my pjs on the couch the other night. I had been there for hours. A notification popped up on the tv telling me that it was going to turn itself off to save energy, as it does after being on for a certain (long) length of time. It […]
MorePost by C.M. The Galway Arts Festival is upon us! The place is buzzing, and with a vibrant Fringe in full swing as well there’s a great deal to see, do, get involved with. Yesterday I made my annual pilgrimage to the City of the Tribes for an afternoon’s art browsing, and happened upon these stylish […]

Aside from books about fashion (I read a great one on Coco Chanel recently, by Justine […]
MorePost by C.M. How to pack for a weekend city break? When it comes to first world problems this is a big one. Very big, particularly if you’re travelling with a certain budget airline with very little room for cabin baggage. I have recently had cause to leave the country (to Venice, in case you […]
MoreTM and CM are proud to announce that we are not so much Irish Mice but Venetian ones, at least until Monday! We’ll report back next week – happy weekend one and all! This is how to dress when in Italy – but it’s always good advice to follow the Gwen’s lead!
MorePost by C.M. It happened quite casually at first. A mix here, a match there, nothing special. You’d hardly notice it. It was mostly accessories or shoes, maybe a prettily patterned bag, nothing too attention seeking, too daring. Then I saw my leopard print pumps stink-eying a floral skirt so I put them together to […]
