Ok there are two really good reasons I can think of for getting your hands on some limited edition BT2 menswear vouchers.

Reason 1 – They’ll be lots of men buying bum hugging undies by Ginch Gonch at the BT2 menswear store in Grafton Street …. undies which are guaranteed to make a girls toes tingle !

Reason 2 – doesn’t matter …… just focus on reason 1.

PS- Please note that €25 does not get you money off men or male models at BT2 ……. only off menswear at BT2 ………. but a girl can dream can’t she.
