“We set up the blog out of our love for fashion and to promote Irish design and boutiques. We never dreamt it would take us in this kind of direction but we are loving it. We now speak at fashion events all over the country and judge ladies days at the races. 

“We are so thankful for all of the wonderful opportunities we have been given us over the last year.
“We are huge supporters of local boutiques. We had our own event recently in Tankardstown House which was a showcase of fashion from around Co Meath. These businesses have come through a recession and survived. 

“With so much online shopping now we are really out to back the local boutiques. There is amazing talent in the county with jewellers, milliners fashion designers and so much more. 
“We'd like to thank the Meath Chronicle and Mary McGuigan from Celtic Media for supporting us as well as the team at The Headfort, who always put on an amazing event. It's wonderful to have so many fantastic businesses as sponsors, especially the new ones on board this year. It is something Meath should be very proud of.”
