Hi everyone. How are you all this week? Well the festive season is well and truly upon us and here at The Irish Store we’re beavering away to get those final little pieces of Ireland to you in time for the holidays. This week I’m delighted to introduce you all to some of The Irish Store Family. They’ve all chosen their favorite pieces from The Irish Store Collection and I have to say they’re looking great!
The Irish Store Family – Top Picks
1. Darren – Clonard Shawl Collar Aran Sweater
E-Commerce Director “I’ve been pretty much living in my two one-button shawl collar sweaters during lockdown – so the classic cable pattern and the merino-cashmere mix of the Clonard Shawl collar is a great addition to my growing collection”
2. Laura – Donegal Blasket Aran Sweater
Buying Manager. “Autumn/Winter is my absolute favourite time of the year and what better way to update you’re A/W wardrobe than with this key staple colour. It interjects a bit of summer’s excitement and the best fall delicacies. I’m attracted to colors that make you feel happy. And this golden ochre is such a happy and warm color. Easily styled with dresses, skirts, jeans and boots.”
3. Paul – Baltimore Fisherman’s Sweater
Chief Operating Officer. “This is a classic sweater and somewhat timeless, excellent alternative to my nicely aged traditional Aran Sweater. In addition, it brings back fond memories of a great holiday I had in Baltimore and West Cork!”
4. Rod – Curragh Cable Aran Sweater
Logistics and Project Manager. “The perfect winter sweater when on the road visiting our fulfilment partners, warm smart business casual.”
5. Lulu – Donegal Blasket Aran Sweater
Like Laura I’m a big fan of our new season golden ochre color in this sweater. I’m also really loving this new ice blue shade which really brightens up a winter look with your favorite blue jeans. So cozy and stylish!
6. Oscar – Boys Half-Zip Aran Sweater
Well I’ve saved the best til last and I’m sure you’re all wondering who that adorable little boy is at the top of the blog. Let me introduce you to Oscar. Oscar’s dad, Mark, is our Senior Graphic Designer and he’s been a little busy with the arrival of Oscar’s new little brother Elliot just over 2 weeks ago! Oscar kindly took his Dad’s place and agreed to model our boys Aran half zip sweater. I think you’ll all agree he looks just too cute for words! Congratulations to Mark, Louise and Oscar on the new addition to the family. Looking forward to meeting Elliot!
Do join me on Friday when I’ll be taking you on my full Meet The Makers roadtrip along Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way,
Until then…..
Take care of yourselves and each other,
Slán go fóill!
