Tracky-Dacks!

The fashion in Cork has an interesting element. There seem to be oodles of lovely dresses on display in the windows of the fashion outlets, but no evidence of the same clothes inside! Instead you are greeted with pastel coloured tracksuits-a-plenty! We thought after our first few weeks that the number of bright pastel pink or yellow tracksuit wearing girls were the exception, but it seems they are the norm!

To wear a two piece matched fluro tracksuit takes a certain kind of person, normally wearing ugg-boots to finish off the "oops, did I forget to get dressed before I left the house again!" look. Now the reason the lovely clothes in the windows don't feature inside is its just too damn cold and wet! Well, we decided to join the masses and buy tracksuits, but only for lazing around at home!
