Here's the second outfit post from Dublin. Also, sadly the last one, because in true British isles spirit (stereotypes, anyone?) the weather changed within hours and what was a sunny day, quickly turned into a gray mess with wind and a light drizzle. We arrived during a major storm, which left half of Ireland flooded, so I consider myself lucky to have managed to take two sets of pictures. As you can see, I thought it absolutely appropriate to wear my new dress while the wind turned my hair into a huge bird's nest. Not the best outfit planning in the world...
Now to the story behind this post's title (because titles are the most difficult part to come up with and I'm picky about them). James Joyce, a famous Irish writer, has a part titled "Wandering rocks" in his epic novel "Ulysses". It is about the book's characters wandering the streets of Dublin (just like we did!). The pictures happen to be taken on a cobblestone street near Dublin castle and the pattern on my dress, despite being a reptilian pattern resembles the paved street. Kind of like the rocks wandered onto my dress, right? Right?
Teine outfiti postitus Dublinist on pärale jõudnud! Kahjuks on see ka viimane, kuna tõelises Briti saarte vaimus (kellele siis ei meeldiks stereotüübid?) muutus ilm tundidega ja päikeselisest päevast võis kiirelt saada vihmane, tuuline ja hall õhtu. Jõudsime Dublinisse raju tormi ajal, mille tõttu olid osades kohtades suured üleujutused, seega pigem pean end õnnelikuks, et needki pildid teha sain. Siiski olen vist kõige halvem riietuseplaneerija üldse, sest pidasin täiesti sobivaks kanda enda uut kleiti tuulega, mis muutis minu juuksed linnupesaks.
Nüüd lõbus lugu sellest, kuidas see postitus nime sai (sest pealkirju on kõige raskem välja mõelda ja ma olen nende suhtes eriti pirtsakas). Kuulus iiri kirjanik James Joyce on oma romaanis "Ulysses" nimetanud ühe osa pealkirjaga "Wandering rocks" [ekslevad kivid]. See räägib sellest, kuidas raamatu tegelased sihitult Dublinis kõnnivad, just nagu meie! Need pildid on juhuslikult tehtud Dublini lossi juures munakiviteel ja minu kleidi muster, hoolimata sellest, et on maomustriga, meenutab pisut munakiviteed. Need kivid nagu oleksid ekslenud minu kleidile, ekole? Eksole?

@Ostrich: No, they're basic black, but navy would look cool with that outfit too!
