Ballymoney has long been home to hidden gems, but few shine brighter than Be Unique by Emma, a boutique on Church Street run by the fabulous Emma McConaghie. 

Recently, Causeway Coast Women caught up with Emma, who gave us all the inspiration we needed to tackle the season in style. From laid-back coastal strolls to festive soirées, Emma has the perfect look for every occasion - and let’s just say, her advice on accessorising is a total game-changer.

1. Day Out Along the Coast: Functional Meets Fabulous

For those breezy walks along the Causeway Coast with family, Emma suggests keeping things casual yet chic. Think a cosy knit with a lovely gilet, paired with off-white jeans. To elevate the look, she recommends a scarf and a crossbody bag - practical yet polished. “Layers are key for coastal outings,” she advises, “but it doesn’t mean sacrificing style.”

2. Lunch with the Girls: Casual Glam Done Right

Lunch plans with the girls? Emma’s second outfit idea nails that effortless ‘I didn’t try too hard’ vibe. A sleek satin skirt teamed with a chunky knit in this season’s colour - burgundy, then add a crossbody bag. Or even the satin skirt with a statement t-shirt and a cropped leather jacket to add an edgy touch. 

3. Festive Party Season: Sparkle with Confidence

When it comes to festive parties, Emma doesn’t hold back. Her top pick? A sequinned jumpsuit in rich jewel tones and costing just £20 - Christmas has come early! “It’s all about letting your outfit do the talking,” she explains. And don’t forget the clutch bag - it’s a must-have!

The Accessorising Effect

What sets Emma apart is her passion for showing customers how the smallest touches can transform an outfit. A belt to cinch a loose dress, a pair of statement earrings to elevate a casual look, a scarf to pick out an outfit’s colours or even the right handbag - these details make all the difference. As Emma puts it, “Accessories aren’t an afterthought; they’re the finishing touch that completes your look.”

Whether you’re in search of wardrobe staples or a show-stopping piece for the holidays, Emma and her colleague Lindsay are always on hand to help you find just what you’re looking for. Be Unique by Emma, isn’t just a shop it’s an experience.
