“At the heart of everything we create are my enduring principles: Simplicity, sophistication, longevity. If a piece doesn’t embody these values, it simply doesn’t make the cut,” she says.

Katriona O'Sullivan. will be in conversation with the Irish Examiner’s Deirdre O’Shaughnessy about her new memoir, Hungry Picture: Bríd O'Donovan.
A raw exploration of survival and identity that delves into the complexities of body image, self-worth, and acceptance, it is sure to be a fascinating discussion. Tickets €15.
As gel manicures continue to surge in popularity, nails are often left dehydrated, over-filed and in need of repair. Nonicure is a new three-step treatment from Irish brand 14 Day Mani, created specifically for nails that feel thin and dry. It was developed by founder Suzanne Fowler in response to clients experiencing damage from repeat treatments without recovery time.
The Nonicure ritual gently exfoliates, protects and deeply conditions nails and cuticles, helping to restore strength and support long-term nail health. Priced at €49, the kit includes a nail and cuticle scrub, nail veil and nail serum, all neatly housed in a pale pink zip case. After a few weeks of use, we can confirm: it delivers.

A few weeks later, and that’s been remedied.
Cloudpicker, Dublin’s speciality coffee roasters, has taken up residency, meaning guests can now pair a full Irish with one of the country’s best brews. No notes!
