My week with Celia Holman Lee: Pride, poise, and passion!

WHAT A whirlwind couple of weeks it has been!

These past few weeks have reminded me why I love this ever-evolving world of fashion.

I attended The Cointreau Hi Style Ireland’s Most Stylish Celebration 2024 at the stunning Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa in Little Island, Cork on November 23.

The event shone a spotlight on the most stylish Irish businesses and business people in Ireland, with the awards celebrating the very best in their respective fields.

As I mingled among the country’s most stylish, I couldn’t help but feel immense pride, as these young talents are the beating heart of their respective industries and it’s such a privilege to see them thrive on such a glamorous stage.

Meeting Limerick ladies Miriam Costello of Enchant and Sinead O’Brien of Vacious is always a true treat, and the pleasure is always mine.

I couldn’t delay in the charming county of Cork, however, as I was back to my home city of Limerick for a chic fashion soirée at the Brown Thomas Brasserie.

With a mix of faux fur, figure-hugging denim, snug knitwear and a little bit of Christmas sparkle, the masterclass and Christmas soirée saw personal stylist Orla Sheridan and in-house shopper Chloe Maher showcase key wardrobe staples from the Brown Thomas Limerick womenswear department, with shoes and accessories to complete an autumn-winter wardrobe.

I accompanied several of the Holman Lee Agency models to the event and enjoyed French-inspired treats on the night.

Watching the models walk the room so effortlessly reminded me of why I’ve dedicated my life to nurturing talent.

Fashion isn’t just about clothing - it’s about confidence, storytelling, and connection. From Cork’s charm to Limerick’s glitz, the events were a testament to the enduring power of style.
