If you are planning a weekend trip to Dublin (or any trip to Dublin), here are a few helpful resources to help you along the way.
What to Wear – Best Clothes to Pack for Dublin
Dublin is cold, cloud, and rainy most of the year. Don’t get caught freezing outside! I recommend dressing in layers with at least one layer in high-quality cashmere or wool. Bring a heavy coat, sturdy walking shoes with excellent grip, scarves, gloves, and a beanie to keep your warm.
I chose high-quality Mongolian Cashmere pieces from Quince, an affordable, sustainable luxury brand. Not only did their zip-up and crewneck sweaters keep me warm, but also in style!
