Here’s All The Things Team STELLAR Is Loving This Week

It’s Friday – and you know what that means.

Another list of what we’ve been getting up to – and most importantly, loving – this week.

Editorial intern Nikita is loving… Cocktail inspired bakes

If you, a friend or a family member have an upcoming birthday, then why don’t you give an espresso martini cake a try. I don’t know about you, but we were struggling to find some inspiration until these popped up!

Not only do these cakes look stunning, but we’re almost certain they’ll taste just as good.

Don’t we all wish we had a summer birthday; we might just bake one anyway!

Head of Digital Jade is loving… A good work out

I used to be a big spin girlie. Three nights a week I’d be hitting up that class and locking in for a full 45 minutes of high intensity, strobe light based cycling.

Then, time passed and I wasn’t overly interested in pushing myself to the brink anymore. Until, that is, this week in Saint Studios.

The new premium fitness destination is opening in Dublin city centre next week, and guys, it’s gorgeous.

With three stunning work out spaces for Ride, Train, and Reformer, luxurious changing rooms, and its own refuelling station serving own branded smoothes and protein balls, Saint Studio is the place to be.

They’ve even got a rooftop recovery area featuring ice baths and saunas, so you can relax those muscles and reward yourself after your workout. How glam?

You can book yourself a class here from next week, May 15. 

Nikita is loving… Polka dots

As summer is getting closer by the day, we did some snooping to help you find your next potential summer style. We’ve heard through the grapevine that polka dots are IN.

We currently adore the polka dot co-ord from Design By Si:, and Calsia suit pants with polka dotted trim.

Whether you’ve an upcoming event or just want to get dressed up for a shopping day, we’re here to tell you that the polka dots are a staple for the summer season!

Jade is loving… Dubai chocolate

Look, I know. These days it’s Dubai chocolate this, Dubai chocolate that, but unlike many other food fads this one is actually super delicious and I hope it stays around for an extended period of time.

Especially now since Lindt have released their own limited edition version of the bar. Spoilers: it’s very good.

With smooth, milk chocolate covering a creamy, pistachio and knafeh filling, it’s been my treat of choice when slaving away at my laptop this week.

Nikita is loving… A delicious drink

Honey, West Coast Cooler have just released a new can.

The fresh peach and mango wine cooler is currently being spotted in almost every beer garden in the country, and we can see why. With summer less than a month away, this refreshing can has launched at the most perfect time.

If you’re not in the mood for a beer garden, then no worries, they are now being stocked in stores all across the country. Sitting in the garden at home, sun beaming down and a can in hand doesn’t sound like a bad idea.

Jade is loving… Crafts

@stellarmagazine A little something different if you’re sick of going for pints ✨ we checked out @thismustbetheplacedublin’s beginner’s pottery class over the weekend, and it was as wholesome as it gets #fyp #invite ♬ Take My Hand – Matt Berry

Sick of drinking four+ pints every time you want to hang out with you friends? Tired of dropping a hundred euro on a night out just so you can spend quality time with loved ones?

Well, then you might want to check out some of This Must Be The Place’s sober activities taking place in Dublin city centre.

Choose from beginners pottery, paint your own tote bag, mosaic creation, and more, and enjoy a few hours of mindful crafts and good company.

Something different, sure.

Nikita is loving… Skin-loving deodorant

@bootsuk Your £4 beauty essential! Hyaluronic Acid, Shea Butter + Vitamin E = soft skin ✨Shop via the link in bio 🛍️ #BootsUK #ViralProducts #GemDeodrant ♬ ‘Bout It – JMSN

What’s better than a lovely light scented deodorant that lasts all day? A deodorant that also offers moisture and hydration to your skin.

We are currently loving the gem skin-loving deodorant which is infused with vitamin E, Hyaluronic acid and Shea Butter, to keep your armpits fresh throughout the day.

This Australian brand has just launched in Boots stores all across the country, and with Ireland hoping to get their hands on the summer heat, this deodorant came at just the right time!
