We’re in back to school mode here at VIP HQ.
We’re ready for our autumn reset and that means that there is so much to love this week.
Here’s what we’re loving…
Digital Editor Bronwyn is loving…cheering on Katie
Are you ready to cheer on Katie Taylor when she takes to the ring in Croke Park next weekend?
Lidl Ireland is showing its support for Katie and offering fans the chance to bag a piece of history with the launch of a limited run of specially designed boxing shorts, which will go on sale from 10am on Friday 28th August via Lidl’s website.
100 per cent of proceeds from ‘In Katie’s Corner’ short sales will be donated to Lidl’s official charity partner, Family Carers Ireland.
Bronwyn is loving…a beauty bag refresh
Autumn is here, I’m sorry to say! And with that comes a chance to give my beauty bag a bit of an overhaul.
Thankfully, Boots is on hand to let me find all the options I need. From fabulous new fragances from Gucci and Kylie Jenner, to new beauty drops from KASH Beauty and Benefit, I’m literally spoiled for choice.
As Benetint’s biggest fan, I was so excited to find out about their new Benefit Benetint Pocket Pal. A new lip stain and lip gloss. I’m obsessed!

Staff Writer Anja is loving…Ellie Goulding x SERVED
I was lucky enough to be invited along to Café en Seine this week for the launch of SERVED’s new flavours, where Ellie Goulding herself, who is a co-founder of the drinks brand, surprised us with a private performance.
Not only did we get to hear some of her biggest hits, but Ellie also gave us a little taste of what’s to come, teasing some never-before-heard music from her upcoming album. And let’s just say, you are in for a treat!
The event celebrated SERVED’s latest Irish launch, with two new Vodka Spritz flavours, Peach and Raspberry, joining the range, as well as Strawberry Daiquiri and Piña Colada being added to its cocktail collection.
The Peach Vodka Spritz completely won me over, and it’s definitely one I’ll be reaching for again before summer is officially over
Bronwyn is loving…a fun drink
We all love a delicious Nespresso!
Nespresso is delighted to announce a new collaboration with The Weeknd, launching across the UK and Ireland this August. The Nespresso x Samra Origins Togetherness Blend brings together The Weeknd’s creative vision and Nespresso’s coffee expertise, inspired by his personal coffee ritual and the importance of connection, creativity and shared moments.
The European launch coincides with The Weeknd’s After Hours Til Dawn world tour, for which Nespresso is the headline sponsor. The collection will include the new Togetherness Blend alongside a limited-edition tumbler and travel mug, featuring signature Samra Origins branding.

Bronwyn is loving…a snack
Growing up all my friends had their names on things…but finding Bronwyn in a souvenir shop is pretty tough! But one thing that is very common is O’Neill.
Tayto has launched its new limited-edition surname packs! For a limited time, 12 of Ireland’s most popular surnames are taking over Tayto’s iconic Cheese & Onion packs.
The limited-edition packs give crisp lovers the chance to spot their own surname, or that of a friend or family member on shelves nationwide. Whether you’re a Murphy, Kelly, Walsh or O’Brien, the campaign is all about sharing a smile, gifting a pack to someone special or simply keeping an eye out for your name on your next trip to the shop.
