Costelloe & Costelloe

Triple snaps to C&C for bringing Dublin Debs the most thorough catalog of formal accessories yet. The prices are fantastic when you need a wow-​bag on a budget (if you’re going to spend € 300 on a gown, € 50 for the bag is a doddle). They’ve got the right baguette, clutch or bag, the perfect pashmina wrap in any colour, plus matching bracelets, necklaces and cocktail rings to set off almost every formal frock.
And with several stores throughout Dublin, it’s clear these stockists know their market well.

This is the cutest little accessories shop I can think of. Costelloe and Costelloe is just around the corner from Grafton Street and it has handbags in all shapes and sizes and colours. Magpie heaven, with lots of bling! Most of the handbags are one of a kind as well, so if you like standing out, this is the place to go. They also sell jewellery, but for me the big draw is their handbags. They’re also quite inexpensive, definitely cheaper than you’d expect from a small independent store and the staff are really nice. They’ve helped me find matching handbags on a few occassions now.

This shop looks so very cute from the outside, with its spectrum of colourful handbags hanging in the windows. It’s a very innovative means of store decoration and it really attracts the eye.
Once inside, you will discover that this shop, which you probably imagined would be far too expensive for its own good, actually stocks reasonably-​priced merchandise. Handbags go for around 40 euro.
Aside from handbags they also stock scarves (also laid out in a rainbow splash of vibrant colour), jewellery (some of it is very nice — especially the emerald green bracelets), and other necessities for any glammed-​up event.
This shop would be the perfect place to find a handbag to match an awkwardly-​coloured dress, or to shop for accessories for a wedding or cocktail outfit.

Great little accessory shop/​girly heaven.
I like this place because it stocks everything by colour. So take for example you were looking for accessories to match a pink dress — they have all the pink stuff together; bags and jewellery in salmon, cerise, magenta, baby pink. So it makes it really easy to match up your outfit with what you’re looking for.
The stock is really pretty — think lots of sparkle and glamour. Quite reasonably priced too.
This is their original store but they also haven another one in Dundrum Town Centre.
