1. One Irish girl found the perfect man in Coppers this week
Anyone who has ever graced the floor of Harcourt Street’s finest establishment will know that many’s a romance have started over a Riverdance routine or two.
One Her.ie reader is as fond as Copperface Jacks as we are, and it seems her devotion has paid off.
Marie writes…
“Well Her.ie. On the couch with the girl, a takeaway and an awful case of the fear after a heavy night (you know yourselves). Orla’s phone beeps and this message lands, from “Hottie McShots from Mayo!”. She hasn’t a clue what his actual name is but we know she was at the bar having shots with some absolute RIDE of a young lad for a good half hour. It seems she gave him her number, along with a set of instructions. ???
We’re pretty sure she’s found the perfect man.” Click here for the rest of the story.
2. We discovered the secret to walking in heels without the pain
There’s hardly a young lady amongst us who hasn’t fallen in love and made a deep and lasting financial commitment to a pair of shoes that took our breath away… only to discover all we’d ever get in return is the hobble from car to bar.
Who What Wear cites shoe expert and Shoe Are You? author Meghan Cleary for the nifty trick. Meghan suggests running your feet under cold water (you can stick them into the bathroom sink… this doesn’t need to be glamorous), then putting a little hand lotion on your feet while they’re still a little damp. Then on go the stilettos. Click here for all the details.
