Christmas Racing!

PrincessPalles love the Christmas racing festival at Leopardstown racecourse. It's one of our favourite Christmas traditions, up early, glad rags on, a nice hot drink in hand with the race form, blissfully basking in the fashion glory that is the Christmas races. The crisp winter air is welcome just so we can wrap up in beautiful woolies and furs! If you need some inspiration for a racing outfit PrincessPalles have put together a couple of picks to help you out! 



We have gone for this AMAZING Peter O'Brien coat available from Arnotts with 30% off at the moment. It was €495 and is now €346.50. THis is one you will have in your wardrobe forever.This beautiful dark green colour is so rich and will match a multitude of colours. The nipped in waist and full skirt makes this coat look so elegant, perfect for ladies day. 







We love purple, especially for christmas so we think this PrincessPalles hat in purple velvet with pheasant feathers is the perfect match for the coat. The browns in the feathers work well with the earthy tone of the coat. With just a little bling to set it off nicely. The hat is available to rent or buy from princesspalles.com






We also spotted these gorgeous suede gloves by Dent, available in House Of Fraser and they too are on sale at €35.00!

Are you winter ready yet? Don't forget PrincessPalles will design a hat to match your outfit, just give us a call!
We hope to see you all at Christmas for some fabulous fashion and racing!

When Poppy met daisy launch

Great leather piece for the fashion forward.

Fashion, live music, bubbly, cupcakes and Hats!!!

Last night’s launch of When Poppy Met Daisy – fashion design school was a resounding success.

The Grand Social on Liffey street, Dublin played host to Lorna Daly and her team who put on a wonderful reception for their guests with bubbly on arrival and some very tasty cupcakes, macaroons and chocolates! Live musicians and a DJ entertained the large crowd in what was a hugely positive look at the future of fashion design in Ireland.

Lorna Daly has been in business for three years with When Poppy Met Daisy offering everything in needle and thread courses and is now eager to expand the company with new courses including photography, styling and fashion illustration coming soon.  

Last night, MC's by Laura Mullett, showcased the work of current and previous sewing and design students and celebrated how far they have come since.

PrincessPalles were delighted to be part of the night as it supports local Irish business and talent.

PrincessPalles are graduates of the sewing machine course with when poppy met daisy and were asked to show off pieces from the Autumn/Winter ’13 collection.

The mix of rich velvets in deep winter tones with pheasant and real peacock feathers went down a storm with the on looking audience. The collection was helped along by the striking heads they adorned on the night. The collection is really polished and has a great mixture of texture and colour. There really is something for everyone in this collection with edgy rock chick leather pieces, girly bows in vibrant pinks or reds and classic elegance - plush velvets in deep earthy tones teamed with rich feathers and vintage buttons.

Here at PrincessPalles we are really proud of the collection and it was great to see it come to life on the models last night and we thank Lorna for the great coverage she gave Princesspalles.

We want to wish Lorna and her team lots of success on her future ventures!
