The Brown Thomas Christmas windows are a landmark on Grafton Street every year and I used to remember being so excited as a kid, going to see them at Christmas time, followed by a trip to Santa's Grotto. Aw memories, so cute.
This year they stuck with a classic Christmas theme, but the warmth and luxury that shines through as you stand there admiring the display proves that classic certainly doesn't mean boring.
Yummy, mini mountains of Ladurée macaroons (pictured above).
Not to forget the BT2 Christmas windows just down the street! I really love the "It's What's Inside That Counts" theme the store went with this year.
I want to own literally every prop they've used in the display (see below); everything is so quirky and cute and the windows look like the inside of a cosy little apartment.
After my stroll up Grafton Street, I took a look up at all the magical Christmas lights lining the way and the sight melted my cold heart a little bit.
For all you non-Irish readers out there "Nollaig Shona Duit" means Merry Christmas in Irish. And I'm certainly looking forward to a Merry Christmas indeed this year.
Currently listening to 'My Girls' by Animal Collective.

hooray! I love the lights, if ever I leave work or college in a gloomy mood the lights can completely make me delighted again. it's all about taking a long-cut up Johnson's Court to walk under the light-net, though, it feels like a fairy tale
Thanks Zohra for giving me a glimpse of Home... Oh how I wish I could be there now!
