The Dublin's fashion bloggers were out in force again on Saturday for our monthly brunch. Pacino's, Suffolk Street provided the venue and a three-part boozy food fest with Clarins doling out some awesome autumnal goody bags. Joining us for the first time was Rag Tales' Nicky Harris and Julie Stafford from the ISPCC who provided us with Bling-a-Bib packs for their upcoming recruitment campaign. The convo varied from bad first dates to the Viking Splash Tour and early days as interns with the chow and drink providing the real centre of attention. First off were coffee and warm croissants followed by Eggs Benedict and Pancakes. Next was a Mojito-making sesh with Bacardi Ambassador and award-winning Mixologist Paul Lambert. I was rather proud of my final libation a marked improvement on my bartending days at the Old Parrs Head, London. Following afternoon tipples was lunch where I was positively apoplectic over the presence of coeliac-friendly pizzas and pastas. After four hours filling our faces, we all waddled home - good bags in tow to try out the Eyebrow kits, Blush/Powder compacts and funky mono shadows (love that silver/green!) with a side of Simon Cowell. Ah yes - the X Factor. Has to be done; if only for that cheeky grin of his!
