\nWith the January sales in full swing we catch up with Fashion Guru and\u00a0Personal\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0Shopper for Blanchardstown, Shirley Lane<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

What was your first car and why did you buy it?<\/strong>
\nI bought my first car just after my 17th birthday and it was a Fiat Seicento and I thought I was the bomb!!!<\/p>\n

What did you pay for it?
\n<\/b>\u20ac2300<\/p>\n

How did it change your life?\u00a0<\/b>I was the first person in my school to own my own car so I was definitely seen as the privileged one!! I was also the one to give everyone a lift to college so it worked well for a lot of people. It also gave me the independence needed to get from A-B. Away from the practicality of having a car, I thoroughly enjoy driving and I still do now even though I do a lot of mileage!<\/p>\n

What was the longest trip you ever took in the car?\u00a0<\/b>The longest trip would have been in my second car which was a brand new Mini and the trip would have been from Cork-Belfast at the time.<\/p>\n

What was your best memory or most memorable moment in the car?\u00a0<\/b>The most memorable moment was probably on the first day I got it when I was showing everyone my new cool wheels!<\/p>\n

What was your worst memory associated with the car?\u00a0<\/b>I honestly don’t have one! I loved my little Seicento and it served me very well!!<\/p>\n

How long did you keep your first car?\u00a0<\/b>I kept it for just over a year and I then bought a new Mini One.<\/p>\n

\"Citroen<\/a>

Citroen DS3<\/p><\/div>\n

What do you drive now?\u00a0<\/b>I drive a very stylish Citroen DS3 which is the best car I’ve ever had.<\/p>\n

Any funky features?\u00a0<\/b>It has many! I’ve a wine colour coded roof & mirror frame! I also have the most amazing glossy dashboard which I love!<\/p>\n

Describe your style\u00a0<\/b>My style would be classic with a twist with the emphasis on the ‘twist’! I love clothes that are practical & stylish but they have to have the ‘WOW’ factor whether it’s from a nice jacket or an amazing neckpiece of which I have plenty! I’ve nothing in my wardrobe that I don’t ‘love’!!<\/p>\n

Does this car fit with your style?\u00a0<\/b>Absolutely! The DS3 has everything I’ve ever looked for in a car. It’s stylish with amazing performance yet easy to run!<\/p>\n

What do you never leave home without?\u00a0<\/b>I would never leave home without my Iphone! I think I’ve a slight addiction!!<\/p>\n

Who would be your dream passenger?\u00a0<\/b>My dream passenger would be Josh Groban! Sad I know but I just love him! He could serenade me while I drive!<\/p>\n

Ideal road trip for the DS3\u00a0<\/b>I’ve had many road trips in my DS3. As a stylist, I attend many events but I also weed out & restyle a lot of clients wardrobes all over the country so I’m on the road quite a lot and that’s why having a stylish car is so important!!<\/p>\n

What CD are you listening to in your car?\u00a0<\/b>Right now, I’m listening to Emile Sande quite a bit as I think she’s amazing!<\/p>\n

Describe yourself in three words\u00a0<\/b>Stylish, fun & loyal!<\/p>\n
