We love that The Gloss now comes as a free monthly supplement with The Irish Times. And while we look forward to the first Thursday of every month we keep ourselves Gloss-ie with their blog The Daily Gloss where we can be spoiled with beauty, fashion, food and entertainment tid bits.
Keep an eye out for The Secret Boutique sample sales which they announce before anyone else.

With crunch time looming for Ireland’s World Cup qualifier in Paris tomorrow and Saturday’s rugby international against Fiji in the RDS, we thought it’s about time we share with you one of our favourite sports blogs.
