As the evenings get ever so slightly shorter, don’t leave it too late to escape the cities and experience something new while the summer sun remains in the sky.
Of course, a new season beckoning means new styles and exciting fashions too. So, why not combine a love of fashion and a sense of adventure, with a Day Trip to Chic?
Designer mecca Kildare Village has collaborated with fashion blogger Tara Marzuki to create five such Day Trips. Every week for the next month, we’ll be checking back in and sharing a dreamy video of Tara in five stunning locations. For each one, Tara will be sporting a look sourced from the boutiques of Kildare Village, where you can source divine designer buys at 60% off the RRP all year round.
Tara writes:
“For my day trip to Castletown House, Ireland’s largest and earliest Palladian-style house, I looked to the location for inspiration. A monumental estate, Castletown House oozes sophistication, with its historical decor and beautiful tea rooms I decided this Mulberry velvet number would be the perfect fit. Glamourous, but not too fitted and colourful without being too bold, the velvet’s colours were picked up beautifully by the light and to bring them out further and give the dress more shape, I added a magenta waist belt, also from Mulberry. I went for a camel-coloured, calf hair handbag to add some warmth to the look, but kept it subtle on the feet with a flattering pair of teal sandals. I completed the look with a 1940s vibe for the hair and a bold lip.”
