I’m a great supporter of Buy My Dress, an initiative by the Down Syndrome Centre to raise much needed funds. \u00a0The concept is, you can donate any dress you no longer wear and they will sell it online and the proceeds go to help children with Down Syndrome all over Ireland. \u00a0When they dropped me a line this week, of course I was delighted to spread the word for them about their urgent appeal for more dresses!<\/p>\n

You can also log on to www.buymydressonline.ie to browse their selection of bridesmaids and wedding dresses. \u00a0I spotted these beauties and if you were watching the Golden Globes this week, you will have noticed that Emerald Green is a trend on the red carpet this year:<\/p>\n

Each week we love being able upload new dresses to our Friday Frocks section<\/em><\/strong> and we know you love seeing our latest gems. So, we would urge you to please throw open your closet THIS WEEKEND (it’s practically spring after all!) and choose one dress (or more!) that you know, while still fabulous, you will never wear again!<\/p>\n

We accept all types of dresses from casual to glamorous, office wear to bridal, so if you have one to donate please, please send it on! We are also looking for children\u2019s dresses, so pack up those little ones that no longer fit and put a smile on another child\u2019s face, all the while helping raise funds for Down Syndrome Centre.<\/p>\n

Many women are opting for previously worn wedding dresses now and this is a great way to not only save money but also be eco-friendly! \u00a0Here are a couple of the wedding dresses which you can buy on Buy My Dress:<\/p>\n
