Caitríona Perry
RTÉ Six One anchor Caitríona Perry has had a hectic few years, but she takes it all in her stride. She spoke to Klara Heron about the importance of being passionate about what you do, the legacy of her late colleague Keelin Shanley and keeping her family out of the public eye.
Irish Made Awards 2021: The winners revealed!
We were delighted to celebrate the finalists of the Irish Made Awards 2021 at an awards ceremony in The Gibson Hotel recently. In this month’s issue, read about the winners and runners up. Congratulations to all!
The Sustainable Christmas Gift Guide
Show your loved ones that you care about them and the environment with our guide to sustainably-made gifts. With lots of Irish-made, local ideas, you will find the perfect gift idea for everyone in your life.
Merry and bright
We have three handy recipes to have on standby this festive season from top chefs Rachel Allen, Mary Berry and Nigel Slater. Ciara Leahy meets the man synonymous with spiced beef in Cork’s English Market, and she also shares her guide to best Champagnes to enjoy this Christmas. Plus in interiors, we have a guide to Christmas decorations from Irish-owned businesses that you will adore year after year.
Seasonal style
In December, we love to dress up at home as well as on nights out, so in this issue’s fashion shoot we have fun party looks that will work with stilettos or slippers this festive season. Ruth O’Connor shares a gift guide for style lovers with picks to suit all budgets, and Sinead Keary gives an inside look at her eponymous label of wardrobe essentials.
