We love any kind of unicorn confectionery, from unicorn cakepops to unicorn doughnuts, but combining coffee and the mythical creature just never seemed feasible. 

But much to our delight, unicorn coffee is now a thing, and the colourful, star-sprikled hot beverages are definitely too pretty to drink.

As well as being prettier than we'll ever be, the unicorn lattes are also super healthy, and give the drinker an infusion of vitamins and minerals.

So pretty much like drinking unicorn blood in Harry Potter then? Except with out all the "cursed life" fine print.

The drinks healthy credentials come from the fact that it is made with ginger, honey, coconut milk and lemon. 

The dreamy blue hue comes from a smattering of live algae, a source of protein, iron and B vitamins.

Brooklyn coffee shop The End came us with the gorge concept, and hopefully it will catch up here soon!

Until then we'll be scrolling through Instagram, wishing our morning coffee was as damn cute as a unicorn latte.

Maybe we'll have to get some star sprinkles to jazz up our instant coffee.

Irish First Dates star Daphney Sanasie has pleaded guilty to harassing celebrity TV chef, Dylan McGrath.

The disturbing texts included messages about "demons and souls," as well as unwanted graphic pictures.

Before Daphney appeared on First Dates Ireland last year, she had been on two dates with Dylan, after meeting him through a mutual friend.

However, after the dates went downhill, Dylan stopped texting the model and that's apparently when the harassment began.

According to the Independent, Mr McGrath felt "threatened" by the texts and at first tried to ignore them, but after they reached a "crescendo" he had to tell the guards.

In 2014, the pair went out on two dates, on February 7 and 14, but after that Dylan wanted no more contact.

When Daphney persisted in texting him via SMS and Whatsapp, he told her "stop texting me" and mentioned "not having the patience for the silliness in the text messages."

Then, Ms Sanasie turned up at Dylan's Dublin restaurant with security guards and a photographer. When she arrived, Dylan told her to not to come to his restaurant and that he had "family issues" to deal with and "didn't want drama right now."

However, things went from bad to worse when Daphney continued to harass the chef by text, and on September 9, things "reach a crescendo."

On that day, she sent over 120 Whatsapp messages to the Masterchef star, along with three of graphic content.

When the accused was arrested on December 1, she told gardaí that she didn't think Dylan meant it when he told her to stop.

As Mr McGrath left the Criminal Courts of Justice, he said: "I'm glad it's over."

At the start of 2017, Roxy and Ronnie Mitchell were killed off on Eastenders.

The sisters both drowned together in a swimming pool, and understandably, many viewers were outraged by their deaths.

Why? Well, only three years previous, Ronnie and Roxy got into a car accident which left them plunging into the depths of a deep lake… and they saved themselves. So, why couldn't they save themselves in a swimming pool?

But moving on, on Thursday night's episode, the residents of Albert Square were preparing for the funerals of the sisters, which saw Jack Branning visit his wife Ronnie, as she lay in her coffin.

However, many viewers noticed that Roxy's body was never shown. Then, later in the episode, Phil Mitchell received a random phone call, to which he said was a wrong number.

But he later rang back that number and had a conversation with the caller. "Hello, I saw your missed call, why are you ringing so late," said Phil.

"OK, alright, calm down. Of course I'll see you. Alright I'll meet you there."

And that was all that was needed to make viewer's suspicions rise:

While the world watched a former reality TV star become the 45th President of the United States of America, Ryanair decided to announce a flash sale.

Taking to social media in recent moments, the airline have acknowledged the current sense of disbelief on Twitter, and insisted it's not all bad.

In fact, you could, if you wanted, get away from the stress if it all by booking yourself a bargain flight.

"Donald Trump is President. These fares are €9.99. This is not a dream. Book your getaway here. #InaugurationDay." they told the public.

Oh and ladies, this is NOT fake news, so have at it.

Ah, today was the day.

It was the day Obama officially exited the White House, and Trump was sworn into presidency.

Between the numerous choirs, Barron's non-stop yawning and Michelle's reactions, it's safe to say, we'll never forget this inauguration:

Last year, boxed vino was all the rage.

It went from tacky to trendy in a matter of months when people found out that the high-quality boxes actually keep the alcohol fresher for longer, and is also way more practical.

We all got on board with this because, well… it's cheap as chips.

Now, however, boxed vodka is on the market, and we're pretty excited about it.

Griffon Vault vodka has been distilled five times, and as well as that, the packaging is made entirely from recycled materials.

The box contains one litre (around 33 shots) and is selling for only $15.99 (€14.98).

The co-founder of Griffon Vault told Bloomberg: "It's ideal for tailgating, the beach, or the pool. You don't have to worry about glass shattering."

He does have a point.

At the moment, it's only available in selected stores around the US, but hopefully something like this will come to Ireland pretty soon.

In the run-up to their premiere of Casting JonBenét at this year's Sundance Fim Festival, Netflix have released a sneak peek at the documentary which true-crime fans have been waiting for with bated breath.

And if their intention was to leave YouTubers feeling pretty disturbed, they achieved it.

A clip for the documentary – which examines the 20-year case into the unsolved murder of six-year-old pageant queen JonBenét Ramsey – was released on YouTube yesterday, and it certainly makes for some unsettling viewing.

Featuring a group of little girls in typical pageant attire, the clip sees one young hopeful, who bears a striking resemblance to the deceased child, asking if they knew who killed JonBenét, and, unsurprisingly, YouTube found it a little hard to watch.

"This is creepy. Can we not?" asked one while another added: "OMG that gave me the heeby jeebies."

"Hell no! Just NO. Nope, not gonna watch. Ever. Never. Netflix, you people are SICK!" ranted another.

If you're not put off by the recently released clip, Casting JonBenét will hit Netflix this April.

As it stands, we have emojis for almost everything, including unicorns, lobsters and rainbows. 

However, despite all of the wonderful options we have when sending a text, there is one particular demographic missing. 

Not a redheaded emoji in sight ladies, and that just doesn't seem fair.

HOWEVER, there is good news, as apparently Unicode are discussing redhead emojis in their Technical Committee next week.

The good news is, the company are not just discussing one ginger emoji, they are planning a whole suite of them.

If Unicode do decide to go ahead with the orange haired emojis, they will appear in 2018 at the earliest. 

Fingers crossed!

Chrissy Tiegen took to Twitter last night to draw attention to the lengths paparazzi will go to in order to get a 'good' photograph of a celebrity in public.

In a series of angry tweets, the Lip Sync Battle presenter explained that she and her husband, John Legend, had been making their way through JFK airport when they were confronted by a pap who attempted to provoke a reaction from them.

Explaining that the pap had made a racist remark towards the All Of Me singer, Chrissy wrote: "Paparazzi at JFK just asked me "if we evolved from monkeys, why is John Legend still around?" – and people wonder why celebs lose it in pics."

"I was very kind. Answered cooking questions, then he came with that. Fu*king disgusting. Also, John is right next to me. The balls." she added.

And according to the mum-of-one, that particular photographer didn't leave it there.

"He also went from "what's an easy recipe to make at home" to "if a Jew were a vampire, would he still be afraid of crosses?" Chrissy told her followers who number in their millions.

Explaining to fans that she refused to respond in anger, Chrissy wrote: "They live for that photo and lawsuit."

Responding to Chrissy's series of post last night, her fans attempted to placate her, with one writing: "Oh my god. well let me add to the much needed positivity and say that you and your family are amazing people."

Agreed.

Every hairdresser will tell you that, if you want to grow your hair, you need to cut it.

Many of us will forgo the chop and just not bother – even though we know in a few weeks we'll end up with ratty tails and split ends.

Ah, the struggle is real.

So, when we came across hair dusting on Refinery29, we couldn't be happier about being able to save those precious two inches off our locks.

 

A video posted by SAL SALCEDO (@salsalhair) on

Hair dusting is basically trimming off the fat by nixing the dead ends without cutting the hair shorter.

Hair stylist Sal Salcedo told R29: "Hair dusting is a technique in which you don't get rid of any hair length, but only the damaged hair tips.

"This can be done by snipping the very bottom of each hair strand. Think of it in terms of removing fuzz from clothes.

 

A video posted by SAL SALCEDO (@salsalhair) on

"You want to smooth the hair out the best you can first, because you need to allow the bad hair to pop up. That's what you will be getting rid of."

However, Sal did note that you should never try this at home as it requires an expert, and, you will eventually have to get some length taken off down the line.

We're still loving this as a quick fix, though.

In a move which has understandably lit a fire under Twitter users today, Sky News presenter, Stephen Dixon, appeared to draw a correlation between the clothes worn by women and the likelihood they would be sexually assaulted.

While appearing on Sunrise with co-star Isabel Webster, weather woman Nazaneen Ghaffer, journalist Sebastian Payne and professor Sarah Churchwell, Stephen put forth an idea which was ultimately shot down by his co-stars.

"Is it a dreadful thing to say that if women are out in short skirts and drunk, that they don't need to take any personal responsibility?" he asked.

Rounding on the presenter, Sarah asked: "Let me ask you a question – if you're walking down the street and you get punched in the face, are you responsible for having left your house?"

Attempting to justify his argument, Stephen responded: "I'd be responsible if I was out provoking them."

"It is not provocative to drink. It is not provocative to wear what women choose to wear," Sarah informed the presenter as Twitter went into meltdown over the anchor's extremely ill-advised remarks.

"All vulnerable ppl are complicit in their own assault? Eg when elderly robbed-shouldn't carry cash?" asked one stunned viewer in the wake of Stephen's remarks.

"Shame on you @skystephen for promoting the myth that women are 'asking for it' depending on what they wear," wrote one.

Stephen replied to the accusation, tweeting: "Nobody promoted that myth. What is terrible for everyone is when an issue can't be discussed without accusations flying."

Dismissing the presenter's ludicrous suggestion, another Twitter user contributed: "A rapist rapes a woman because he's a rapist. To even imply she's to blame is shocking."

Speaking in the aftermath of the controversy, a Sky News spokesperson attempted to clarify teh stance taken by the presenter during the debate.

“In his capacity as presenter, Stephen was playing devil’s advocate during a discussion of the controversial findings of the Fawcett report. He was not reflecting a personal view.," they said.

On the eve of Donald Trump's inauguration, thousands of women the world over are creating posters in preparation to march in support of gender equality.

The Women's March on Washington has been gearing up since it's online conception ten weeks ago, and has garnered the support of over half a million people across their various social media platforms.

Similar marches will be occurring in countries across the globe, and Ireland is one of them.

The Women's March on Washington – Dublin is happening tomorrow at 12 noon, and over 1,200 people have clicked attending on the events Facebook page. 

"We stand together in solidarity with our partners and children for the protection of our rights, our safety, our health, and our families, recognising that our vibrant and diverse communities are the strength of our country," says The Women's March page. 

"The rhetoric of the past election cycle has insulted, demonized, and threatened many of us: immigrants of all statuses, Muslims and those of diverse religious faiths, people who identify as LGBTQIA, Native people, Black and Brown people, people with disabilities, and survivors of sexual assault." 

"Our communities are hurting and scared. We are confronted with the question of how to move forward in the face of national and international concern and fear."

Organisations like The Abortion Rights Campaign, Amnesty International Ireland, the Coalition to Repeal the 8th, Democrats Abroad and the European Network Against Racism have all offered their official support to tomorrows march in Dublin.

The march will begin at the Garden of Remembrance, culminating outside the GPO in a rally at 1.30pm. You can check out the event here.
