'We looked for our Christmas outfits in charity shops - and got unreal bargains'

The festive season is one for dressing up. Whether it's your Christmas night out with friends or a big Christmas shindig with the family, it's nice to dress up nice to mark the occasion.

But conversations around fast fashion and its effects on the planet, as well as the rising cost of living leaving little left over for an expensive new outfit means some of us need to get thrifty. Dublin city centre has some excellent charity shops both north and south of the Liffey.
