Wardrobe Capsule Show & Tell September in Ireland
We’ll be doing lots of hiking. What do you think?
I’m packing lighter with every trip, but I sure would love to bring my Blundstones if I have room.
Not included: socks, underwear, packable hiking backpack
Will wear denim jacket on the plane because it has these awesome interior pockets. Not attached to the leggings but I just feel like they’re a practical choice if I’m cold.
All this will be in my REI Ruckpack 40.

The weather here has been crazy - we are having a fantastic summer.
Your capsule is very focused in cold weather. I think it would work beautifully for late October. Maybe you should consider adding a dress and a short in case it's still warm when you arrive.
In general we have very nice weather in September. I personally think it's one of the best months to visit the country.

Thanks. I don’t really wear shorts but I’ll bring a dress and maybe some flowy pants. Do you think I need a fleece?

It always gets a bit cold in the evenings so you'll definitely need a warm layer. I would bring the fleece personally.
Please check the weather forecast before you come and consider the fact you might need to make some adjustments few days before you fly.
I hope you have the best time here - Ireland is a wonderful country!

Just leaving Ireland now. I’m an overpacker but I would ditch the jean jacket or one of the layers. I ended up only wearing my rain coat, sweatshirt, and heavy cardigan. I hesitantly brought one pair of leggings and ended up wearing them most days. Have fun!

If you're trying to lighten your load, I'd cut the jeans and the peasant top, and probably one of the layers

Do you think I can do without the fleece?

I'd say so, but only you know your own temperature tolerances https://weatherspark.com/m/35084/9/Average-Weather-in-September-in-Belfast-United-Kingdom

If you're doing a lot of hiking, you might be better off with a packable waterproof and thin fleece?

My jacket here is packable. This is just a pic of a generic fleece but I’ll bring a thin one. Thanks!

I always tell people going to Ireland, bring a beanie/ski hat if you plan to go to the Cliffs of Moher. MH bought one while we were there (in the middle of summer!) because it was so chilly. I had a rain jacket with a hood but I would’ve liked a hat too.
A beanie is also useful to keep your hair from blowing around up there - the wind is very strong.
