Whether you are planning a staycation or trying to relive your summer holiday back home, here are some of my picks of the best dresses to see you through the changeable Irish summer.
The oversized shirt dress
& Other Stores €89
My absolute favourite style of dress.. purely due to the comfort factor. It looks great with heels, flats or even a pair of converse- and will keep you cool (but not too cool) all summer long in Ireland. Add in a pair of tights and biker boots and it will even see you into Autumn and Winter!

The “dress with sleeves”
River Island @ Asos €60.81
There’s something about having bare arms that can make even the sunniest day in Ireland seem a lot colder. This dress gives the appearance of summer with just the right amount of cover up. Great for work, weekends or a family get together.

The Irish “heatwave” dress
Boohoo @ Asos €29.73
On those super rare days when the weather dares to go higher than 20 degrees in Ireland- it is an absolute must that you take full advantage with the most “beach-like” outfit in your wardrobe. This “barely there” dress is perfect and will make you feel like sipping a mojito over your morning Americano.

The summer BBQ dress
Zara €29.99 (Sale)
This dress is summery and fun but with enough cover up to shield you from any BBQ spatters and airy enough to cover up the inevitable food baby.

The summer “Night-out” dress
Misguided €41
This dress would be great during the day with sandals and leather jacket and would look amazing at night with heels and a summer tan (even if it’s fake)
