It’s been an eventful Friday!
Between trying to get Luke Combs tickets, Kodaline tickets and hanging out with Westlife, we’re ready for the weekend here at VIP HQ.
Here’s what we’re loving this week…
…a cute picture
We love snapping a cute picture, especially around this time of year.
And thankfully, Fujifilm is here to give our snaps a facelift!
The instax mini LiPlay+™ hybrid instant camera (mini LiPlay+™) is here and it’s amazing.
It debuts a variety of new features including dual cameras (a main camera plus a wide-angle selfie camera) with new capabilities for image makers, various enhanced sound capabilities that allow the user to integrate sound into their images (through the use of an integrated QR code printed onto the image), and tasteful upgrades to the camera body.

…fashion with a difference
We all love to make a statement with our outfits. But what if we could do that and make a difference?
Dublin-based homewares brand Tomorrows has partnered with SEP to present a range of Keffiyeh.
SEP is a social enterprise that works to bring Palestinian artists above the poverty line by providing employment to refugee artists living in and around Jerash refugee camp in Jordan.
The range includes traditional Keffiyeh styles, as well as linen and cashmere styles carrying the signature Palestinian embroidery.
If you want to get your hands on some, they are having a pop-up in the Mart Gallery Market in Rathmines this Saturday and Sunday. You can also head to their website for more details.
…dreamy skincare
This time of year, it’s pretty hard to keep the chill off your face. And we want to protect our skin from the harsh elements.
I’m a huge fan of Origins and I’ve fallen in love with their new Youthtopia range.
I love their Peptide Plumping Apple Cream which is a daily moisturiser with Apple Seed Oil, Squalane, Apple Stem Cell Extract and Antioxidant-Rich Apple Peel Ferment. It plumps skin with moisture, helps maintain skin’s vitality, strengthens skin’s barrier and minimises the look of pores. Skin feels bouncy and looks plump and healthy.
And you can get 20 per cent off Origins on Millies.ie with code MilliesxOrigins until November 4th! Find out more here.
…the IT girl fragrance
I love Sol de Janeiro, I have bottles scattered all over my house…and my car…and my bags! Look, I need to smell good all the time!
However, the fragrances are so long lasting, one spritz will do me all day.
And they’re bringing us serious Christmas joy (already) with their gift sets.
This year’s holiday collection features full-body fragrance, glow-inducing body care, and sensorial rituals that prioritise joy and intention. With price points ranging from €25 to €230, the collection makes it easier than ever to give yourself the love and care you deserve.
You can pick up your favourites at Arnotts and Brown Thomas.
…adding sparkles to my wardrobe
Look, we all know we’ll be adding sparkles to every outfit in a couple of weeks. And I want to get ahead of the curve!
Thankfully Carol Byrne is back with her third exclusive collaboration with Very.
