It's finally starting to look like summer outside but thanks to the temperate Irish climate that shouldn't mean trading in your winter wardrobe staples for shorts and t-shirts just yet. Irish summer temperatures are closer to what Americans call ''Fall"- that lovely transitional season that sometimes allows you to go out in just a t-shirt but generally calls for layering pieces. The sleeveless leather jacket was seen everywhere on the spring/summer catwalks, from Alexander Wang to Proenza Schouler and is the perfect piece to funk up your summer wardrobe whilst keeping you warm. Whilst black will go with almost anything, a white sleeveless version will complement your summer colours and give your look a 90s feel. Investing in a 100% leather piece will ensure it lasts for years but if your budget doesn't stretch that far, the high street is stocking some great quality PU options. Layer it over a hoody and boyfriend jeans for an urban daytime look or team it with a classic monochrome colour combo to nail two of the season's biggest trends at once.
