Feel stylish amidst the showers with this edit of Irish summer buys including a ruffled blouse from Rae Feather, a pair of great denim shorts by Agolde and the perfect Aran jumper by Moss + Cable …

If there’s one thing we can rely on, it’s that an Irish summer is unpredictable. One minute you’re getting the hang of heatwave dressing, the next you’re wondering which summer shoes can withstand torrential downpours. The reality of our climate is that summer dressing is going to become more unpredictable than ever. Naturally, you need clothes to match.

What are we seeing as real Irish summer staples? When the sun disappears, it’s all about what you wear on your bottom half. Think: the season’s trending Bermudas in denim, a pair of great capri pants feels novel, or, equally, luxe silk or satin trousers take the edge off the fact that you have to wear trousers.

Allow yourself the treat of a great pair of flip flops. They’ll add a polish to whatever you throw on. If you’re looking to branch out, why not try a boat shoe? Team them with true-blue denim for a look that says future classic. As for other accessories, upgrade your summer bag with a beachy charm. We’re favouring pearls, shells and glass beads that express a ‘just back from the beach’ kind of vibe … even in the city. Shop the best buys for a changeable Irish summer below.
