I don't know about you but despite reading year after year in magazines how to master the capsule holiday wardrobe, packing smart etc I still haven't quite managed to get it right.
This year I vowed to pack light ..until I heard that we had a 20kg luggage allowance each! Then I thought well a girl needs choices. So in went upteen bottoms and far too many tops. In reality however I did go way over the top and the majority of my day options went unused, I spent most of my time in my tankini, sun hat and sarong as it was just too hot to wear much else.
Evenings however were a different story, I love an excuse to dress up in a cute Summer evening outfit and was really happy with my choices. I am not a fashionista and won't pretend to be, I am a 30 something mum who hopes she hasn't lost it just yet!
Day 1
Dress - Fat Face
Navy Sandals - New Look
Navy Bag - Oasis
Day 2
Black & White Spotted Playsuit - Miso at USC
Sandals - River Island
Dress - Billie & Blossom at Dorothy Perkins
Sandals - River Island
Day 4
Navy Stripe Dress - Dorothy Perkins
Red Crop Cardigan - Marks & Spencer
Navy Sandals - New Look
The dress was a last min purchase the day before we flew and it is so, so nice. It clings to my curves and hides all the bad bits. A Summer fave!
Day 5
White Bow Top - Next
1950's Style Skirt - Bay (it's an oldie but I LOVE it)
Plimsolls - Primark
I went all 1950's inspired for this adorable look. Funnily enough on the same night I wore this TOWIE had a Grease themed party. The 1950's is my favourite era for fashion, just gorgeous, girlie and cute.
Day 6
Bright Floral Dress - BlueInc
Sandals - River Island
So flattering on and almost neon, this was the perfect choice for my final full evening in Turkey.
Day 7
Navy Striped Bow Top - Next
Jean Shorts - Next
Red Crop Cardigan - Marks & Spencer
Plimsolls - Primark
This also doubled up as my travelling home outfit as we left the hotel at 9pm. Super comfy and I love the navy, red and white combination.
So there it is, a peek inside my suitcase - my seven days of holiday style. Hope you enjoyed it.
