In March every year, the world comes together to celebrate women. Women's roles in the home, as mothers, leaders and friends are part of the fabric of society and their contribution should never be forgotten or minimised. People celebrate International Women’s Day differently in different parts of the world, from female-only events to workplace celebrations for female colleagues. This year on Friday 8 th March, come together to celebrate the important women in your life by sending flowers and words of encouragement from Belles Fleurs Florist in Blanchardstown in Dublin.

International Women's Day 2024

Every year, women and men all over the world come together to recognise women, their goals and achievements. There is a bigger call to action behind the celebration, with a message to encourage equality and fairness between the sexes. This year the 2024 campaign theme is Inspire Inclusion. When we inspire others to understand and value women's inclusion, we forge a better world. The campaign encourages a world free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A world that's diverse, equitable, and inclusive. A world where difference is valued and celebrated. While in Ireland the rights of Women are moving in the right direction, there are places in the world where these demonstrations of support are hugely important and badly needed.

Flowers for International Women’s Day

Purple is the official colour of International Women's Day. Wearing it and displaying it proudly shows solidarity and support for this excellent cause. Luckily, purple is also a popular colour for flowers which we include in our fresh flower bouquets in Belles Fleurs Florist. Varieties of purple flowers include Lavender, Hyacinth, Iris, Clematis, Allium, Salvia, Verbena and many more. Some of these gorgeous purple blooms are commonly found in Irish gardens but we can import more exotic varieties fresh for International Women's Day. Popular flower varieties given worldwide on International Women's Day are daffodils and wonderfully scented mimosas. White snowdrops are also a popular flower to include in bouquets. These varieties are seasonal and grown locally to reduce the carbon footprint of your bouquet. Colourful bouquets are always popular, the woman is a colourful creature after all!
