Our Number One Fan?



Who is our number one fan? Now, there is a question we may have just answered on our recent photo shoot for our new collection of womens clothing which we have finally just released (ole!!)...Big thanks to camerman Darren, make up artist Madonna and model Alison for making the photo shoot possible...This behind the scenes video features typically terrible jokes from yours truly but perhaps answers the question about our biggest fan...Or, are you our number one fan? Let us know :) Ole..

Photo Shoot - Behind the Scenes

Alrighty then, are you ready ready for a platoon of pictures? On Sunday 18th Sept we found ourselves in DStudio to do our photo shoot for our new collection of t-shirts...Behind the camera we had Darren from Life in No Motion, our make up artist was the gifted Madonna and the lovely lady in front of the camera was Alison..We had a lot of fun together doing the shoot and the following or some behind the scene type pictures for your perusal while we frantically select and edit the pictures for our site..

Darren Looks Through A Magazine to see how he wants Alison to contort..



Two cameras at the same time - always challenging for a model..



A few touch ups to make sure everything is as it should be..




See, people were allowed to have a bit of food (as long as they could eat it in 10 mins ;))




I believe the frame came into play at some stage during the day...



A pweddy picture...




I can assure you Alison was fine, she didn't fall from the ladder, was just a misguided idea...



...although when Elena dropped the bucket on her she did yelp a bit ;)



Elena & Alison, still friends at the end...




And, everyone likes a bit of cheese so here is the "Team Pic"



And that's a wrap..We've got a few more fun cheesey pics on facebook which of course I'd highly recommend you check out ;)

For now though, consider yourself warned that the launch of our next collection is just around the corner - we're aiming to have them available early next week...If you jump on our mailing list you'll get a handy e-mail the day they are available so you'll be one of the first people to get them :) So, who wants to get their hands on one of our new designs? If so, which one?

Blue September - We're Going Streaking with Paddy Power!


So, today was an interesting day...

I'm just back from a photocall for Blue September where Paddy Power (all Irish readers will be familiar with that name I'm sure) and Féilim Mac An Iomaire (who may be familiar to internaional readers as his successful job seeking billboard stunt got picked up by all sorts of world media) were togged out in not a lot to kick start the Blue September campaign..

A few months back we got involved with the Dip in the Nip, the fun fund raising event for cancer, which is organised by the incredible Maire Garvey..The Dip in the Nip, like the name suggests, is an event where people go running into a large body of water somewhere completely starkers with all the proceeds of their fund raising going to cancer research. This year though Maire has gone one further and launched Blue September here in Ireland, giving us males a chance to flaunt our jiggly bits...Whilst talking to Maire today I mentioned that I'd do the dip and now have the feeling that my proverbials are well and truly on the chopping block - all for a good cause though..

Anyway, today Paddy Power and Féilim Mac An Iomaire took the first steps in streaking and posed bluefully (oh, I like what I did there) to kick start the Blue September campaign..Now that they have kick started it it is up to us (you, me, he she) to make it a success..I read just yesterday that a startling 1 in 3 males in Ireland will be affected by cancer...This hit home with me - I've a brother and a father so statistically one of us will fall foul of the dreaded big C at some stage, a far from pleasant notion...

So, like I said, it is up to us to get the word out about Blue September... How can we do this? Well, share this blog post for one..Spread the word of the Dip in the Nip event which is happening on the 25th of September.. If you've got a swinging appendage and are based in Ireland why not put yourself forward for a dip? Donate whatever you can...I know we're in what seems like a never ending recession but if you can spare a few bob then it's guaranteed to go to a good cause when you donate to Blue September..1 in 3 men will be affected with cancer, 1 in 3...

Anyway, little video below of O'Connell Street and the Spire where the photocall was today with Messrs. Power & Mac An Iomaire surrounding the driving force Maire...

Spread it on...Ole!
