A new trend that has come about in recent years is to have two separate hens, one with the family and one with friends. For the bridesmaids this can be a bit of an added stress, but in fairness it does make sense to keep those classy aunts as far away from willy straws and […]

Tomorrow, 30th March marks the first Good Friday in 90 years where pubs and nightclubs have been allowed to open and serve drink.  The bill which was initially passed through in the Seanad was then voted in, in the Dáil on January 25th.  Many pubs are still undecided about whether or not to open their doors […]

Anyone who knows me will know that I am totally and utterly obsessed with makeup. In fact, there are few days I’d go without it. I really feel like I’m not ready for the day until I’ve fixed up my brows and drawn on my signature eyeliner flicks. There is no better feeling than […]

Before you ask, no it’s not a Bank Holiday.  TV screenings of some of our favourite movies from the 80s and 90s are usually reserved for days such as Christmas or Easter but Sky One is starting the week off right by showing Ghostbusters this evening.  The cult flick has captivated audiences since its original […]

If your significant other-half is a bugger for snoring and you’re losing sleep over it, apparently keeping a pineapple plant by your bed can help you get a good night sleep – one that’s completely snore free. While many of us snore in our sleep (we don’t mean to!), it can be pretty annoying for […]

There’s nothing quite like a snuggly sweatshirt in this fierce cold weather, especially if it has a hilariously bold slogan on it.  Too many times have we seen a cute jumper in Forever 21 or Penneys only to pick it up and it has some shite like ‘Live Laugh Love’ scrawled on the back.

We all know in our heart of hearts that Irish women are some of the absolute best and brightest there are, but do we honour them enough? We at Lovin HQ feel we could give our mná a bit more love. With International Women’s Day on Thursday just gone, the news that a referendum will […]

Ah, childhood. The good old days. Where you had no responsibilites or the crushing realisation that you’ll probably never be a home-owner. Those were the days – although they weren’t without their faults. It has to be said that we were innocent and naive little creatures when we were younger. The very slightest thing putting […]
