I find it very difficult to buy clothes for Irish summers. Do any of you feel the same way? First of all, we never know what kind of summer we are going to get and, secondly, I am past the age when I want to bare too much flesh. I prefer any of the other seasons for many reasons.
Autumn – ‘the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness’ – is my favourite because I love the colours, particularly yellow, amber, gold, orange and rust. I am always eager to put away the under-used summer clothes and get out the hug-me-in black tights and ankle boots. The leather jackets come out of hiding and I am eager to scour the shops for some new outfits.
I am also very fond of Winter, ’when icicles hang by the wall’. Unlike others, who dread the darker evenings and the cold, I don’t mind dressing in warmer clothes and love my coats and faux furs and knee-high boots.
And ‘Nothing is as beautiful as Spring when weeds in wheels shoot long and lovely and lush’.
I find it easier to dress for Spring. A pair of jeans, shirt or light sweater and ankle boots and you are sorted, while a scarf can take away any chill in the air. If you want to ditch the coat, a jacket generally works fine, unless you live in Ireland where winter coats are worn all through Spring and often into summer!
But when it comes to summer I have major problems …’summertime and the living is easy’ (as the song goes – couldn’t think of a suitable poem!). If we have a good summer in Ireland (which we haven’t had in years), my summer wardrobe mainly consists of maxis, capri-pants and wide-legged trousers. Various tops and shirts and jackets and cardigans complete the looks. I also have a few short dresses which generally I wear with tights until my legs lose their pale ghostly pallor. If I want to wear sandals, I have to buy open-toe tights. Of course, there is always false tan, but I am a disaster with it and seldom get it right and I also hate how it stains the bed sheets.
Trying to get a ‘real’ tan is no longer an option and while I don’t avoid the sun (I am always out walking or golfing), I seldom lie in it now. I am aware that we need vitamin D and that we must not avoid it completely, but gone are the days of lying in it for hours lathered in baby oil.
At the moment, we are bathed in sunshine and I have just got my summer clothes out of the mothballs and bought some new items which I will be sharing with you on the blog, FB, and Instagram in the coming weeks. Follow, comment and share please!

Sounds like a perfect opportunity to take the passion you have for development and channel it into your own idea. Give the job enough effort to keep you employed and create something meaningful in your own time.
Thank God! Someone with brains speaks!

earlier that lapides will die…I feel this must be true… (whenever they introduce an new character one goes) the new one Radzinsky…One more thing…does anyone have a clue what in the world Ilana said when Ceasar woke her up after the plane landed… it sounded like she called him Sarah….
Together with the whole thing which appears to be building inside this particular area, a significant percentage of viewpoints tend to be very radical. However, I appologize, but I do not subscribe to your whole plan, all be it refreshing none the less. It appears to everyone that your remarks are actually not totally validated and in actuality you are yourself not really fully convinced of your point. In any case I did appreciate reading through it.
Decent advice….DC companies suck for the most part.. You are better off calling collectors yourself and getting a deal and having them remove that baddie from your cr completely.But it does require a whole lot of follow up to make sure they keep their word and not hose you once you settle.I was struggling with this, but my friend recommended a company that did all the leg work for him, and all they charged me was $40/year. Give them a call, They are AWESOMETelephone:877-826-0587
The accident of finding this post has brightened my day
Stilrent og morsomt antrekk! JJeg har den røde paraplyen, jeg kjøpte den i Gøteborg den siste gangen jeg var med faren min til hans bestevenn som døde i våres. Gøteborg vil alltid minne meg om han, vi var med han og familien hans på Liseberg hvert eneste år når jeg var liten.
Although I’m not sure I could do a juice feast, they’re so interesting to read about! You’ve come up with some awesome combinations, I want to try the banana/cacao pudding now 🙂 I do love the idea of detoxing/cleansing everyday though, through veggie juices, herbal teas and barley grass powder xHannah recently posted..
