Sometimes we need Parfois

Portuguese accessories brand

Parfois, despite its French name (which means "sometimes"), is actually a Portuguese accessories brand known for its affordable bags, scarves, belts watches and even shoes. With six outlets in Ireland, including Dublin airport and Mary Street, it keeps a close eye on trends and delivers versions that always look more expensive than their price tags. This season, there's a whole range of clutches including this little red number for €29 that would brighten up any black dress.
