Spring has finally sprung.
After the string of sunny days lately, we’ll admit it: we were hoping it was time to finally pack away our fluffy jumpers and break out our colourful spring wardrobe.
We’re definitely nearing that point, but with Met Éireann forecasting a wash out of a weekend for some counties – seriously, why can it never stay warm and dry for the weekend? – we’re not quite there yet.
But just the fact that we know warmer days are ahead has us dreaming of our next big break away – and, of course, the fantastic wardrobe that comes with it.
We have fallen head over heels for this ruffle-strap mini dress from New Look, a piece that we know we will be packing for our summer vacation.
Seriously, how cute would this be walking along the beach? Or as a bathing suit cover? Or for a day of exploring whatever city you’re going to be visiting?
It comes in six – yes, you read that correctly – different colours: black, khaki, red, pink, light green, and lilac.
And it €15, it is the ultimate weekend bargain.
If you’re looking for more great buys this weekend, check out this linen-look striped midi-dress (also from New Look).
It costs just €34.99 – and comes in two different colours: a multi-colour striped one and a blue-and-pink striped one.
The midi-length means it’s not only super flattering, but also can work now if (like us) you’re sick to death of wearing tights.
The retailer recommends pairing it with sandals for a “fail-safe daytime look” – although we reckon it would look adorable with a pair of white trainers and a denim jacket, or a biker-style jacket and ankle boots.
