ladies shopping in dublin city - something different?

sporina

hi i am going shopping tomorrow Dublin city - looking for some new clothes. But i am sick of the same old stuff on the highstreet - all the shops are the same.
So I am a bit out of touch with dublin shops - are there any shops/boutiques I should look out for? around d1/d2 area - I will not have time to go further afield.
I am not a follower of fashion - a classic kind of girl - i wear what suits me as oppose to whats hot now. Timeless stuff.
thanks in advance.

There are some great unusual shops in the Georges street arcade off Grafton street, if you're looking for dressy clothes Retro is a great shop, but there are plenty of boutiques all around that area!

I like upstairs in arnotts. It's still high street but less common (and more expensive) than some other brands. I also tend to like classic cuts and generally plainer clothes but with good fabrics, shapes and cuts.

Twee.

Cos have a new standalone store on Wicklow St, they are great for plain clothes, very structured with clean lines.

+1 for Arnotts,they have some great brands.
