Scouting for treasure

A new shop in Temple Bar called Scout is the brainchild of Wendy Crawford (of Wendy's Wardrobe) who spent the last five years honing her skills in Bow, the creative co-op which she co founded in Powerscourt. Her new venture in Essex Street West is based around the notion of utility and is home to her personal selection of internationally sourced clothing, accessories and homewares that are both practical and beautiful and assembled in a relaxed environment. Along with customer favourites like Grenson brogues, Electronic Sheep knits and clothing by Petria Lenehan and Armor Lux, she has introduced new elements like London based YMC and Fog Linen from Tokyo and some handpicked vintage pieces. scoutdublin.com tel:01 6778846
