Desire Lines: Autumn fashion must-haves and cosy, comfy treats
Some of what we're loving this weekend.
Red never goes out of style, but it seems to be particularly inviting this season.
We adore this stunning Isla knit cape, €319, from Donegal designer TRÍONA, paired here with the Niamh double-breasted coat in brown and red houndstooth check, €825.
Both available for pre-order now.
The festival of lights, Diwali, is just around the corner, and Lush is celebrating with a special collection in its honour.
Part of the brand’s co-create programme, it has been designed in collaboration with Lush staff around the globe who celebrate the festival themselves.
The Sparks of Joy gift set is sure to improve anyone’s morning shower, with a mango lassi-inspired shower gel and mango kulfi body conditioner to start the day with soft, sweet smelling skin.
€21.50.
Yara Alul left the corporate world to found UrbanPal with her sisters, creating a fashion collective that celebrates and preserves Palestinian heritage and culture.
Partnering with Palestinian refugee seamstresses based in Jordan, the brand creates customisable fashion pieces while uplifting and empowering the Palestinian artisans.
The eclectic collection ships worldwide and includes original products such as totes, hoodies, caps, handstitched pieces and T-shirts featuring artwork from the children of Gaza.
Magee 1866 and LANDA have once again teamed up for a limited collection of handbags and phonebags just in time for gifting season.
The Palto tote, which blends classic brown leather with a camel and chocolate houndstooth tweed, is top of our wishlist. €599.
It’s so simple, you wonder why someone only came up with the idea now.
