Friday August 7th
After work I got my hair did at Style Club Hairdressing for a colour & cut, which you can read all about here. And so feeling very, very happy afterwards I headed out with friends for a quiet evening at The Bank, Dame Street. That bar is truly beautiful, the interior design is sublime, and the atmosphere is great too. I was also chuffed that there was a lot of 1916 memorabilia, as well as statues of the Easter Rising leaders, including my great grand uncle Joseph Mary Plunkett.

For a relaxing weekend at home, I opted for casual wear and wore my first of five tank tops sent to me by Zazzle. Their slogan tanks are perfect for my style, especially cos I dislike t-shirt sleeves… The quality of this tank is brilliant too.
