It might be June, but here in Limerick, summer has arrived with more raindrops than sunshine. Still, there’s something charming about the unpredictability of an Irish summer. One minute it’s grey skies, the next a soft glow of sun peeking through. So how do we dress for days that can’t make up their mind? With light layers, uplifting colour, and just a bit of humour.

1. Rainy Day Chic:
   • A trench coat in a cheerful shade can brighten any downpour.
   • Pair with cropped trousers or a floaty midi skirt that stays comfortable, rain or shine.
2. The Always-Prepared Layer:
   • Keep a lightweight knit or cardigan in your bag—it’s your best friend when the breeze kicks in.
   • Neutral tones make it easy to match with anything.
3. Footwear That Knows the Forecast:
   • Swap out sandals for loafers or low boots with grip—practical and still polished.
4. Accessories That Make You Smile:
   • A playful umbrella, gold hoops, or a woven handbag can bring warmth to even the gloomiest of mornings.

Summer in Ireland may come wrapped in clouds, but it still holds its own kind of beauty. Dress for the weather you have, with a little nod to the season you’re dreaming of.
