Just last Sunday (16th August) I headed off to the Rose of Tralee's annual fashion show, with my uber trendy aunt Teresa, and of course my beautiful momma bear! So I've gathered a few pictures to put this post together, just as a little review of the night!
So I guess we'll start at the start, with what I wore;
So with my photographer on strike, all I have of my outfit is endless mirror selfies - at least until I get a chance to get some good clear shots! Yes, I did (shamelessly) rob my moms dress for the night, and paired it with a gorgeous Melissa Curry necklace, and of course my once favourite Primark/Penneys heels (which quite frankly I hated at the end of the night). I used my Naked Smoky Palette to create this smoky eye look and popped on a bright lippy, which yes I did have to top up a number of times throughout the night - but it was worth it!
On arrival, tickets were exchanged for cute little pink wristbands (which unfortuneately clashed with my outfit, but it had to be done), and photographers roamed the dome, taking countless pictures of pretty much everyone. At the entrance we were met with drinks (wines and OJ to be precise), and we headed off to our seats - which had been reserved second from the frow!
So what was great about this show was that it showcased pretty much nearly every Tralee boutique, and even a few from afar! But of course my favourite part had to be the little Irish Designer showcase, including some of the outfits Celia Holman Lee had kept since beginning her career in modelling at aged 15! And of course I was lucky enough to meet Celia, last years Rose of Tralee Maria Walsh, and of course the lovely, famed Irish Designer Tina Griffin *fangirl moments*!
So was my 9 hours in heels really worth the pain? Yes.
