Don't get me wrong, I can't afford ANYTHING in it, and doubt I will be buying anything in here anytime soon, but I love the brands it stocks. Pauric Sweeney, Juicy Couture, Jimmy Choo...swoon. I could literally browse in here for hours. They stock men's and women's clothing, bag, shoes and cosmetics. There's also a café, restaurant, bar and little food store too.

Was in the lucky position where I could get a suit here recently as a treat after my part-time…read morestudies. As a 36 short in a suit, it's nigh on impossible to get something to fit me with a slim fit. Here not at all. I got an off the rail three piece with alternations for €600. Not cheap but that suit will do me for years and in fairness the range of suits, brands and level of quality/service was brilliant. If you want someone to talk to about suits ask for Patrick.

Score! I headed to the empty ones for some quick tester sampling, before going upstairs to check out the clothes.

One was very good at taking photos of me, positioning me this way and that, to get the perfect photo of me in their wares.

Recommended.

Argos has pretty much everything, whether it's stuff for the apartment you need, office supplies or…read moreeven a karaoke machine for the home entertainment, and various smaller odds and ends. The catalogue is divided into sections: Kitchen, home and furniture, garden, sports, health, jewellery, office, toys etc. You flip through the pages, write down what you want and take it to the counter to pay. In only a few minutes, your stuff will be ready for pick-up! Shopping has never been this easy! Of course, I wouldn't really buy a TV from a catalogue. I kinda want to see it before I buy it, but if you've done your homework and know exactly what brand and product to get and you see on their website that Argos has it, it's pretty handy. I came here recently with my friend who's a buyer for commercials. She needed loads of different stuff and she needed it quick. In only about 15 minutes we were loading her car with a gazebo, basketball ring, parasol and a mini skateboard ramp. Such a time-saver!

As a young fella I was absollutely fascinated by the manner in which you shop in Argos. 'A shop…read morefull of catalogues? Preposterous. Where's all your stuff...my God it's like it just appeared out of thin air!' I thought to myself. Flash forward ten odd years and I'm still considerably fascinated by the place.

Okay, maybe not ANYTHING.

They stock top labels like Juicy Couture, Diesel, Lyle and Scott, All Saints, Guess Lipsy and See by Chloe. There are also BT2's in Grafton St and Blanchardstown Shopping Centre. Now I'd be lying if I said I didn't shop here (I am a big Juicy fan), but usually only around Christmas Time when I have some vouchers or something to spend. I'm not crazy about spending €100 on a t-shirt, and you'd be hard done by to find something much cheaper in the shop. They also stock jewellery, underwear and beauty brands like MAC and Benefit. I like to go in even for just a look around, because the shop itself is quite young and funky.

This is the first stand alone Gap Store in the country and it just opened in May of this year…read more They've had a little gap section in Arnotts for a few years now, but this is the first time we've had the entire collection. The store itself is quite cool - menswear is on the bottom floor and women's and kids upstairs. The layout is quite simple and the décor is clean and simple. I remember thinking that it was quite cool in their too - temperature wise that is, as the rest of the shopping centre can be quite stuffy. I love their clothes, so I was delighted they brought the store to Dundrum. They're really simple and very reasonable. I will definitely be going to have a little spend there sometime soon.

But among the empty houses and the skeletons of skyscrapers there are a few hangers-on. Microsoft has a big office here, and during the week their workers make a little buzz around the place.

Also I have to put in a word here for their hair and jewelry stuff, you can find real gems amongst all the tat. OK when I say 'real gems' I don't literally mean real gems, but certainly you'll find some stuff that no-one will believe came from Penneys!
