Jumping for joy over bargain bridal chic

IRELAND’S leading independent children’s charity Barnardos is really embracing “budget chic” with the opening of its new bridal room and boutique in Carlow.

Yesterday’s gala opening was attended by TV3’s glamorous news anchor, Elaine Crowley and one of Xpose’s star presenters, Sybil Mulcahy.

The new store, located on Dublin Street, houses a range of brand new goods, donated by wholesalers and retailers, as well as top-quality once-loved treasures.
