Tired month - resort to black. It takes less effort, thought, energy. It makes you feel a little more invisible, like maybe you don’t have to engage so that you can just get on with your work. Yes, it allows you to be a little hermit.
This is one of those hermit-y months, but it’s nearly over. Thank the small lord. Thanks also to American Apparel, who sent me this ’shawl’ cardigan. At first I thought - ‘I’ll never wear that.’ Oh how wrong I was. I pretty much wore it for the duration of September. It goes with everything, it feels nice, it’s long. It has sleeves. It has nice shoulders. It doesn’t swamp you. It’s a shawl. It’s a cardigan. I love it.

I hope you don’t mind that I’ve chosen my favourite Irish made item from these stores rather than just feature the stores themselves. I will be doing store posts too, but I just loved these items on their own merit so much I had to share. 
Absolutely amazing coverage for this worthwhile project - you can still bid on the pieces 
Sometimes you see a website full of clothes, that makes you want to throw out every single item of clothes in your wardrobe, buy the site’s full stock, pack said new stock into some suitcases and head off to live in a white villa in the South of France.
