Spotted at Kildare Village: Major savings on these designer items just in time for Valentine’s Day

Don’t be stuck for a gift idea this Valentine’s Day. Make Kildare Village your one-stop shop for all your gifting and date night needs… or treat yourself!


Swarovskis on stars and heart prints on dresses, bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens, brown paper packages tied up with strings, these are a few of our favourite things.

We’re past the hinting stage this Valentine’s Day and are heading straight to Kildare Village to treat ourselves to some special designer gifts for less.

From designer threads, to sunglasses and handbags, new throws for the sofa and sparkly jewellery, Ireland’s largest luxury shopping destination has it all.

And if that wasn’t enough, Kildare Village is holding a special Valentine’s date night treat at the fabulous Dunne & Crescenzi. The tasty Italian is offering three romantic courses for just €32, with a Prosecco cocktail.

We may even stretch to picking up a few gifts for the other half while we’re there. After all, it is Valentine’s…

These are some of the date night outfits we have our eye on at the Village…

Ladies

Emporio Armani dress, WAS €280, NOW €182

Love is definitely in the air with this heart-print smock dress. We love the length – perfect for tights and boots for this colder weather and also ideal if you want to ditch the tights and add a strappy heel when spring eventually arrives.

Wolford Estella leggings, WAS €250, NOW €162

A wardrobe staple, you can rock these leather-look leggings for any occasion. Perfect for date night with a pair of killer boots and a sequin top. You can also add a blazer and a trainer for a more low-key look.

Mulberry Christy studded boots, WAS €760, NOW €380

Race you to the Village for this absolute bargain. These Mulberry ankle boots will see you right through winter and into spring with a little style change up. Heel height = dance-floor ready!

Mulberry Mini Seaton Silky Calf, WAS €1195, NOW €837

Be still our beating Mulberry heart. This mini is just what we need to add a certain je ne sais quoi to a date-night outfit. We’re dreaming of it paired over a black blazer, those Wolford leather-look leggings and a pair of crisp white trainers.

Polo Ralph Lauren Anstey camera bag, WAS €189, NOW €129.99

If you weren’t quick enough off the mark to nab the Mulberry mini, don’t worry, Kildare Village is a treasure trove of designer handbags for less. This Ralph Lauren camera bag is so Instagrammable you’ll be wearing it out of the store.

Swarovski star drop earrings, WAS €129, NOW €38

When Marilyn Monroe sang about diamonds being a girl’s best friend, she obviously never caught a glimpse of these Swarovski crystal earrings. These would make the ultimate Valentine’s gift, or birthday, or Mother’s Day, or Christmas, or anniversary…

Gentlemen

Polo Ralph Lauren solid custom fit mesh polo shirt, WAS €95, NOW €64.99 

A classic polo shirt never goes out of style, and this navy number is ideal for a date night where he’s heading from boardroom to bar. There are major savings on Ralph Lauren for men, women and children at Kildare Village.

BOSS Corvaro jacket

A practical but stylish gift for the outdoorsy man in your life. BOSS has any amount of great jackets, that are waterproof, warm and will last a lifetime.

Asics Gel-excite 6 trainers, WAS €190, NOW €114

Kildare Village is a haven for gym bunnies and roadrunners. As well as a plethora of activewear for less in Asics, the Village also has a Nike store, Puma, The North Face, Lacoste and New Balance. These Gel-excite 6s will excite your marathon-training partner.

Zwilling J.A. Henckels black 5pm manicure set, WAS €269, NOW €134.50

Even marathon runners need to tend to their nails! This nifty little set will fit in a toiletry bag and is perfect for travelling, and the scissors can double up as a beard and moustache trimmer for when he’s on-the-go.

Rituals Ritual of Hammam Purifying Ritual gift set, WAS €29.50, NOW €23.60

A luxury gift set that smells delicious so you can benefit too! This set contains a foaming shower gel, body scrub, body cream and hand soap all packed together in a reusable luxury storage box. He’ll be a new man.

Armani men’s EA Hybrid watch in black, WAS €369, NOW €252

 

There’s nothing quite as sexy on a man than a good watch, and this Armani watch in intense black with a large face is the ultimate accessory. He’ll love wearing this to both the office and the pub with the lads.


All of these gift ideas and so much more, across women and men’s designer clothes, handbags, jewellery and sunglasses, as well as homewares like pots and pans, can all be found at Ireland’s largest luxury fashion destination Kildare Village.

And if you’ve missed out on any of these bargains, why not pick your loved one up a gift voucher, available online here.

Kildare Village is much more than a shopping destination too – it can be a fun day out for the whole family. From fine dining, such as the Valentine’s special at Dunne & Crescenzi, or a spicy siesta at Saba, or the new Nelson’s Boutique Fried Chicken, to a child’s creche and a dog-friendly kennel service, there is something the whole family can enjoy.
