|| Lets talk travel. Something everyone loves to do. The thrill of seeing a new place, or the pleasure of a familiar place revisited. Travel is also something I tend to do a lot. I was also notoriously bad at it when I started out. I packed too much hand luggage in a non-wheelie bag, I wore the wrong things for long flights and didn’t have an iPad (granted these were not invented yet – am I giving away my age?) So here’s a run down on some travel tips – now that I have it a little more sorted.
1. A cashmere sweater. This is a necessity, it doesn’t get static (so none of that electric hair), its light weight but still keeps you warm in the icy plane. And you will use it on the other side, even if you are visiting a tropical island.
2. A pair of super stretch, skinny, cropped denims. Any, and every colour or pattern.
3. Easy to take-off/put-on booties. Flat or with a stacked heel, your choice. So, you can get them off fast through security check points. Also, it means you have some socks on for the flight to keep your feet warm. (Oh, and on the sock front, keep yours on and pull those flights socks they give you on over your own. Keeps yours clean on those bathroom trips.)
4. A punchy hold-all tote bag acts as a hand bag. Keep a little pouchette in the tote for your wallet, passport and all those other essentials. Make sure this bag isn’t too heavy!
5. Cool luggage tags makes your bag stand out from the crowd on the conveyer belt.
6. My lips take a beating on the plane, I have to keep them babies moisturised. This super slick and non-sticky balm is perfect.
7. And something a little bit travel inspired, or for the crafty ones out there, a diy map, tote bag of your travels. Do it before a trip, after a trip or while you wait for your transfer flight. Nice. ||
