Reasons every Irish girl loves shopping in Penneys

Ahh Penneys – the one true love of every Irish girl.

Below are some of reasons we truly love Penneys almost as much as we love our mums:

1. You can actually afford the stuff in there.

How many hours have you wandered around its labyrinth of reasonably priced everything?

2. You can buy an entire outfit in 40 minutes

Including shoes,underwear, the exact right shade of bra and 2 to 3 pieces of jewellery and maybe even have change for a Supermacs..

3. Displaying your haul on your bed is so satisfying-

4. Fighting with other shoppers over the last S/S 2014 essential kimono even though you don’t need it, But you want it.

5. Getting lost once inside but being secretly happy to ditch your friends just so you can browse easier

6. Tights – Who the hell buys tights in river island? Or Topshop ? or even forever 21- not Irish girls thats who-

7. Bras and Knickers. We honestly don’t know anyone who buys the majority of their underwear elsewhere

 8. Their socks

9. Picking up a carrier basket even though you’ve only come in for ‘a look around’ can be tough..

They are deceptively deep..

10. It’s part of the Irish female psyche to need €4 ballerina pumps

11. Where would be on Saturday night without a trusty pair of Penney’s pumps in our handbags?

12. Penneys Bikinis are the Sh*t

Trick is to buy them now as all the good bikinis sell out by the end of May..

13. The jewellery is a steal..

14. Cocoa Brown

Making Irish people look bronzed in the depths of Winter..
