This morning I went to a 7am Networking meeting in The Glenview Hotel. Have been to a few before but this one was a bit different, there was over 100 people at it, LOTS of suits...! They are funny things to go to, its all about the schmoozing...you don't know what people do for work so you usually get chatting to lawyers/insurance people/IT people/management people...nothing that interests me specifically. However, once everyone gets there 30secs of fame, standing up in front of everybody (*kinda scary!*) and says what they're business is, you can target the people who are of relevance to you.
All in all, not a bad morning and they are certainly worth going to.
After that I headed to south Wicklow to meet James of Cheveu Studio, which is a fantastic hair salon in the small town of Carnew. James is now stocking ASTRID hair accessories which is great news and I am delighted to be a small part of his beautiful salon. Anyone in that area must go check it out, its a salon that wouldn't look out of place in Dublin city. Its fab!
Good day.

My dog
Have to share a picture of my very tired dog!
His name is Barney and he is probably one of the most doted on dogs around...
ASTRIDAM?
Was recently in Paris and Amsterdam for a break. Absolutely adored Amsterdam, its such a great great city. Right up my street, or should I say canal...
It made me want to find reason to go back, stocking in some Dutch boutiques perhaps...I'll see what I can do!
Like all holidays, they leave you refreshed and ready for action! So I've been busy creating new ideas. I'm currently working on bridal pieces for an upcoming photo shoot I've been asked to do which I'm excited about.
Designer Mart starts in 3 weeks time, so enjoying my Saturdays while I still have them to myself before we start up again. Looking forward to it though I must say.
Astrid is going to be bigger and better this year. The website is in the process of being created, I might eventually find something worth saying in this blog, I will be stocking in more shops and custom pieces are what I will be working more towards. So if you have a wedding, party, special occasion and you are looking for something special and hand made - you know what to do!
