Desire Lines: The dress of the summer and a free Michelin meal for kids
Desire Lines: Top picks from the Weekend team
Salsa Jeans have launched their new Cocktail Edit — and we’ve fallen head over heels for this vibrant pink salmon shirt dress, €139. Whether it’s day two of that destination wedding, a boujie brunch with gal pals, or a romantic dinner, we can see ourselves wearing this all summer long. Available in Liffey Valley and Blanchardstown stores as well as online.
Get summer-ready safely with Caudalie’s Self Tan Sun Drops. Add instant glow to your complexion with the new radiance-enhancing drops. Infused with Organic Grape Water for an antioxidant hit, simply pair two to six drops with your favourite moisturiser for an even, natural-looking tan. €21
Olivia Hassett’s latest work, will be exhibited tomorrow at Greywood Arts in Killeagh, East Cork, as part of the May Sunday Festival celebrations. Drawing inspiration from the 120-year-old Singer sewing machine that was her grandmother’s, and another Singer sewing machine that her great-grandmother used, Olivia will present a live performance exploring the relationship between body, machine, lived history and the ‘fabric’ of the space.
Guests from Hugh Wallace to Brendan O’Connor share their interior design tips and learnings on new podcast, Style Stories. Launched by EZ Living Interiors, expect the latest design trends and industry insights – plus great conversation. Listen in wherever you get your podcasts.
Oakberry Ireland has just launched a range of overnight oats, made fresh daily. Just like their açaà bowls, these will be available with individualised toppings, so you can customise your grab-and-go breakfast as you please. The range has debuted with two base options, peanut butter and coconut, with chocolate protein and crunchy pistachio chocolate coming soon. From €3.95.
JP McMahon of Michelin-starred Aniar in Galway has launched a new initiative to encourage young diners to experience something out of the ordinary. Until the end of May, diners aged between seven and 15, can enjoy a free 12-course Michelin tasting menu when eating with an accompanying adult.
It’s a generous initiative that should appeal to the next generation of food lovers, introducing them to wild and foraged Irish produce, fine dining, and the unique flavours of the West of Ireland. Bookings essential.
Street Feast — Ireland’s biggest day of street parties — returns this year on May 24 and 25. The community celebration is back for its 15th year, inviting neighbours across the country to come together for a shared meal, a chat, and a chance to turn strangers into friends.
Register for free to host your Street Feast and you’ll receive a free party pack with bunting, stickers, invitations, posters and a DIY guide.
