This city has quickly became a fashion hub. Of course it has the usual trendy brand name stores, but it also has opened many off the beaten path shops around the city.
Vintage and thrift stores quickly became a hot trend in Dublin. You can find many awesome shops hidden behind the tourist traps. If you take the chance and make your way down some side streets and hidden alleys, you can really find some of Irelands hidden gems.
When asked about where she got the inspiration for this look, this tourist said she actually was not that into her outfit today. She usually likes to wear a lot of different colors to make her outfit pop. However, she was feeling very plain and basic when she put this outfit together. She decided to go with the fluffy and fierce look by contrasting her furry jacket, with her gold belt and black booties.
