One happy shopper said: "Well tailored beautiful coat. Reiss quality is cut above. Particularly like that the underarms are fitted, subtle fit waist and shoulder, good length back vent, proper long length 50" and medium weight fabric. Very happy purchase."
However they did point out the sizing is "generous", noting: "Usually a size 10 the 8 is perfect fit, a generous size 8." Originally priced at an eye-watering €545, this coat is now available for just €283 - a saving of €262 (Image: Brown Thomas)

71% of financial firms say US and EU ESG changes will affect Irish compliance
Seven in 10 financial firms say US and EU Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) rule changes will affect Irish compliance. A survey by the Compliance Institute found more than half expect the impact to be "moderate", while one in five expect "significant disruption" as ESG rules diverge globally. Changes in the US include the Trump Administration exiting the Paris agreement, a reducation of climate regulations, DEI initiatives and sustainable investment rules. The EU is also planning reforms to simplify sustainability reporting requirements. Looking at these changes and how they will impact on Irish or US companies based here, it mainly applies to environmental targets. "In the European context, the first wave of reports have been issued from large listed companies that have to report various standards, quite hefty front end of their financial statements and annual reports," explained Michael Kavanagh, CEO of the Compliance Institute. "But as a reaction to the scaling back in the US, we've seen the scaling back in Europe for wave two and three, we've seen the scope being reduced, we've seen the deadlines being postponed for two years, and that scaling back is having an effect," Mr Kavanagh said. In Ireland many US companies are also headquartered here, so from a European perspective, the European headquarters are here. Speaking on RTÉ's Morning Ireland, Mr Kavanagh said this means, from a compliance profession's point of view, many of these companies have their compliance teams headquartered here. "That (compliance) team has to deal with all these different aspects and rules from jurisdictions, so when you have divergences like that, it just adds to the burden of compliance in what is already a rather heavily trafficked area with various rules and regulations at the moment," he said. "The effect on teams is that they have to increase resources, I talked to compliance professionals that literally will be dealing with India this morning, and at about 4pm this afternoon they will be dealing with the US and trying to to navigate the various rules and regulations." Mr Kavanagh said the European Commission's recent move to ease reporting requirements for SMEs is a welcome attempt to balance regulatory demands with practical realities. However, he added that it also signals that the broader trend toward tougher sustainability expectations will only accelerate. Despite widespread recognition that ESG regulatory changes will impact Irish compliance, the survey found a concerning lack of action. Just four in ten financial services firms say they are proactively preparing for shifting ESG frameworks.

Meet the woman behind the viral Kerrygold handbag
Butter yellow may have been the colour of summer, but it's a butter bag that has taken over our social media feeds. Over the last number of weeks, Irish fashion fans have undoubtedly scrolled past dazzling photos of a Kerrygold clutch, made with over 5,000 hand-placed Austrian crystals. The woman behind this sparkling sensation is Kimberly Tino, founder of Maya Grisham. "Maya is the name of my youngest," the founder explains of the name. "I remember sitting in the library studying - I'm an optometry student - before I started the business in November of 2023. I was in the library and I looked up and I saw a book and the author's name was Grisham, and I thought, 'there we go'." With two young children to raise and a degree in optometry to study for, starting a business was a true labour of love for the Meath woman. "I guess the idea to start the whole sparkly bag business was that I'm someone who loves fashion, but I would always find that, when I wanted to go out, I wouldn't be able to find a bag that was unique. A statement piece that I could wear over and over again." To create something personal to her, the designer created a 'Hello, my name is Kimberly' bag, which quickly caught the attention of passersby. "That's when things started getting crazy," she laughs. "I made the Tayto bag for Saint Patrick's Day 2024, and people loved that bag. It went very well, and that's when I realised I wanted to do crazier bags. First was the Tayto bag, then the Guinness can bag, then the four-leaf clover. Now it's the Kerrygold bag." Since a Brennan's bread bag was suggested to her by fans, Tino has undertaken a leather-making course so that she can play with different textures and designs. "Between university and the two kids, it's a lot at times," she laughs, noting that each handbag can take weeks or even months to make, depending on the level of detail in the design. "I put my love into it. Even the packaging, it's crazy how far everything has come. I really wanted something luxurious, so you have the whole experience of opening a beautiful box, some satin inside, a matching dust-bag - I want it to be an experience." Applying each crystal with a pair of tweezers, the Kerrygold bag, in particular, is time-consuming to make thanks to the intricate details, but Tino says the product felt like the perfect choice. Born in Zimbabwe and raised in Meath, she says that her creations have been inspired by childhood memories of enjoying Tayto and Kerrygold butter on a demi-baguette after school. "That and a cup of tea," she smiles. "That was our Friday treat." The bag has been a hit on social media, with well-known faces like Jazzy, Louise McSharry and Davina Devine praising the creation. The butter brand themselves gave the design their seal of approval, writing: "Obsessed would be an understatement". "Honestly, it's still a bit surreal for me," she muses. "I'm just sitting in the kitchen right now with a bucket of laundry that I need to deal with, and a Kerrygold bag that thousands of people have fallen in love with. It's gone so viral, I can't even fathom how well it's done." "For me, at the end of the day, it's about people loving something that you thought of and materialised. I feel really grateful when someone makes an order that they trust my creative sensibilities."

EasyGo rebrands as EZO amid continued expansion
Irish electric vehicle charging network EasyGo is rebranding as EZO as the company continues to expand rapidly around the country. Over the coming weeks EasyGo's user app will be updated to EZO. E-ZO said today that 110,000 drivers are now using its platform, adding that it is on course to reach 150,000 users in the UK and Ireland by the end of the year. It said it has increased its number of DC charge points by 42% in the first half of the year, as well as increasing its staff numbers from 35 to more than 70. Looking ahead, the business said it has a secure pipeline of over 150 key locations for rapid charger installations, including more than 20 charging hubs, over the next 12 months, with deployment already underway. Backed by Rubicon Capital Advisors, the company has also made a major leap into the UK market and recently secured a £300m 20-year deal to power Scotland's Net Zero transition. The contract will see the installation and management of over 1,300 EV chargers across the Highlands, Aberdeen City, Aberdeenshire and Moray Councils, marking the company's largest infrastructure project to date. CEO Ollie Chatten said that surpassing 110,000 users and the company's recent growth to the UK is a clear signal that drivers and communities are choosing the company as their trusted EV charging partner. "With user numbers rising fast and major partnerships underway, we are poised to lead the EV transition at scale. We are ready for what's next, and we're building the infrastructure to match the pace of change," he said. Mr Chatten said that EZO's growth is a clear sign not only of the strength of its own position, but of the broader trajectory of the EV sector. "We're here to lead with conviction, and to help shape a future that's already unfolding. We see sustained momentum, growing infrastructure demand, and a deepening commitment to electrification," he said. "With today's official unveiling of our rebrand, we are underscoring our commitment to delivering smart, accessible, and sustainable EV charging solutions that meet the needs of everyday drivers and communities," the CEO said. "It is more than a name change. It reflects who we are - becoming a smarter, more scalable and more connected network for the future of electric mobility," he added.
