Can we say it’s summer yet?? Here’s some more stylish photos of all y’all! Photos by Elaine Castro.
Sophie Van Weeren and Bert Van Laar (Dutch)
Sophie wears: Jacket and Dress-America Today, Cardigan-H&M, Sneakers-Nike.
Bert wears: Trousers and Shoes from Holland, Bow Tie bought in America and Coat from a Second Hand Store.
What they think of Dublin style: In all honesty they expected it to be more trashy. It’s a bit too much on night’s out in the city. Dublin is very European and so is its style but it’s hard to spot who’s a Dub and who’s not.
Stephen Bowes and Deirdre Fitzgerald
Stephen wears: T-shirt-Acne, Trousers-Cos, Hoodie-H&M.
Deirdre wears: Pinafore Dress and Polo Neck-ZARA Kids, Grey Coat-Second Hand, Coat-Topshop, Shoes-ZARA.
What they think of Dublin style: It’s fine, quite homogeneous. It’s probably not good enough for European standards.
Molly Moynihan
Molly wears: Jacket-Topshop, Polo Neck-Ha’penny Flea Market, Culottes-H&M, Shoes-Topshop.
What she thinks of Dublin style: It has definitely improved. There’s far more choice now with the things we buy. We’ve moved to a more progressive time, it’s not just about being sexy anymore, it’s more about individuality.
Emma Casey and Rachael Murphy
Emma wears: Jacket, Top and Jeans from Urban Outfitters.
Rachael wears: Jacket-H&M, Jeans-Glassons, Boots-Senso, Bag-Marc Jacobs
What they think of Dublin style: They just returned home from living in Australia. When comparing it to Dublin Australia’s style seems a bit crisper. You can see that everyone makes an effort with their style in Dublin. There is a brilliant mix of high street and high end in Dublin.
Bree Meagher
Bree wears: Coat-Quin&Donnelly, Trousers-Gardeur, Shoes-Caravelle, Bag-Chloé, Sunglasses-Tiffany&Co.
What she thinks of Dublin style: Years ago Grafton street was the mecca of Dublin street style. The youth have adopted a new casual style. Bree’s generation are still dressing up. Life is too short. Why not dress up? Always dress for an occasion even when there may not be one. She also believes that you don’t have to spend money on style. ZARA is her proof of this. They are a quality high street store.

It depends on what college you’re in and you can see different looks depending on what part of the city you’re in. Style can be based on the people you surround yourself with too. Men are really getting into fashion which is great to see.
