Travel Packing Necessities!

I thought I’d take you through my ultimate must-have pieces for holiday!

 I was going to do a post with everything I'm taking but I really am taking a lot, considering its only 15kg I’m not quite sure how that’s going to work out…Anyhow, this is most of it to be honest and I believe all of these are perfect as there's a huge range of mix and matching giving you a huge range of outfits from as little clothing as possible.

For a chilled out, comfortable holiday there’s always a few must haves so these are mine!

Tops_

Black Mesh Tee_

Perfect paired over a bikini/swimsuit for a dressed up take.

H&M Crop Tee_
(Of course I had to get black & white!)

Dressed up/Dressed down perfect over shorts.

Paired with a necklace, clutch and flatforms - great for night-time.

H&M Grey Marl Vest_

Comfy and casual in the day - Perfect in the heat.

Topshop Long Length Cami_

Soft and thin fabric perfect for hot nights. 

Accessories easily jazz this top up for a night on the town.

Topshop Crinkle Neck Tee_

This oversized thin tee is my ultimate must have for holiday. 

Lightweight and wonderful and being white perfect for sunny days. 

Again another piece that can be casual or dressed up. 

Top Tip_ 

Taking simple tops as shown as above is best for less luggage. Items that can be worn both in the night and day are perfect.

Topshop Crinkle Oversized Shirt_

As you can see and may have seen from the majority of my blog posts, I'm a monochrome addict and for me this oversized shirt is my perfect beach shirt. Especially for me as I burn extremely easily long sleeves are perfect and the fabric being so thin I won't be getting any warmer!

Bottoms_

H&M Leather Shorts_
Fabulous for a night on the town.

Primark Gingham Midi Skirt_
Thin and billowy in the wind, perfect for a day out in a coastal town to keep covered and cool.





Missguided Thigh Split Black Maxi Skirt_
Again, another item great for day or night and a personal favourite of mine, flattering on any shape.

Topshop Sporty Trim Runner Shorts_
Love, love, love this shorts! So comfortable and great to chill around the pool in.
 Also match my pool sliders perfectly! Match made in heaven!

Denim Levi Shorts_
Black & Blue
I think the ultimate Summer must haves, denim shorts - who doesn't have a pair?!
My favourites for fit are Levi's and I believe there's a definite need for both colours - especially when they can be dressed up or down!

Dresses_

Primark T-Shirt Dress'_

Black & Grey

Easy cotton v-neck t-shirt dresses great for the day put on over a swimsuit for a stroll somewhere!

Missguided Scuba Dress'_

I'm taking lilac & baby blue!

For the evening two dresses in beautiful pastel colours paired with white gladiator sandals and a clutch! Can't go wrong!

H&M Grey Maxi Dress_

My travel outfit all in one, comfy and stylish! 

Shoes_

Topshop Slides_

Perfect for around the pool and possibly the comfiest shoes ever. 

Much better for me than a flip-flop - I am not a fan!

Topshop Flatforms_

My evening shoe to dress up a few of my outfits.

 Much more practical and stylish than me attempting to totter around in heels on cobbles!

H&M Slip-Ons_

Travel shoe essentials - comfort all the way!

Primark Jellies_

Practical for around the pool and sea, I cannot be risking slipping over anywhere this year!!

New Look Chunky Sole Gladiator Sandals_

A great evening or day shoe!

Ultimate Swimsuit_

River Island_


Accessories_

H&M Necklace_

Primark Necklace_

Zara Necklace_

H&M Chain Necklace_

For me jewellery is a necessity.

 It can make an outfit go from drab to fab.

 Lets face it I'm not from 'The Only Way Is Essex' so I am clearly not going to be draping myself in jewels just to be looking 'oh so fabulous' around the pool.

 No.

 Dressing a day outfit up with simple chains is understated and subtle whereas an oversized necklace is perfect paired with a dress on the night.

All Primark Sunnies!_

Topshop Merino Holdall_

I have only just received this today and I am in love!!

 It is the perfect size for a travel bag, plenty of space for all my books, magazines, travel documents, purse, sketchbook, you name it and there's still spaces of room left.

 Love it!!

Primark Grey Mini Satchell_

Walking around a foreign town in the day, all you need is your camera and money and this is the perfect little bag to throw over your shoulder.

 Clearly it also matches all my monochrome clothing!

Michael Kors Clutch Bag_

My all-time favourite bag, my Michael Kors clutch bag. 

Perfect for the evening to dress up any outfit.

I really hope this helps you with your holiday necessities if you're going away soon!

 Hopefully I'll be able to do another post before I go on Monday but if not I will be writing many outfit posts while I'm out there, so there will be many to come when I return!
