We’ll soon be off on our first staycation this Summer and although it’s not what we had planned, it will be so nice to have a change of scenery. Devon is not a hotbed of style and I expect we’ll be doing a lot of walking, so I’ll mostly be wearing quite casual clothes but … Continue reading Packing for Devon Summer 2020

Packing for France ’19
It's so exciting to do a 'Packing for...' post! I just can't wait to spend some quality time with my family eating copious amounts of cheese and other wonderful French produce. This holiday we're off to Bordeaux and into the French countryside exploring beautiful villages and hopefully a smattering of Chateaux and vineyards. I'm not … Continue reading Packing for France ’19
Packing for Seville 🇪🇸
By the time Easter comes around I'm desperate for a holiday. This time we're going to Seville, Spain and once again my hubby has insisted we go with hand luggage only (eye-roll). I therefore need to be particularly savvy in the packing department and looking at the weather forecasts, this is going to be a … Continue reading Packing for Seville 🇪🇸
Packing for Portugal
I'm so excited to be going to Portugal for the first time! We're going to Lisbon, the countryside North of Lisbon and the Algarve so if you have any tips, do let me know.The first point of call will be Lisbon so I need flat shoes for walking and negotiating those hills, a decent sized … Continue reading Packing for Portugal
Packing for Devon, UK
I was in two minds whether to write this post as this is the kind of staycation that calls for more practical clothing and if you know me or read my blog, you'll know that's not my style! If you're heading to the UK coast and have been before, you'll know the weather is somewhat unpredictable … Continue reading Packing for Devon, UK
Packing for Mallorca
Not long now until we're off on a family holiday to Mallorca.I love this Balearic Island. This time we'll be staying in a finca at the foot of the Tramuntana Mountains, so quite different to our last stays in bustling, stylish Palma. I think I've finally learnt the art of packing (taking hand luggage only) … Continue reading Packing for Mallorca
Packing for a Girls Trip
I use the term 'girls' very loosely here but am soon returning to the South of France with a partner-in-crime. It will be quite different to my last visit to Nice as I'm hoping to get to wear some heels and there's a luxury hotel waiting for me, rather than a self-catering Airbnb. It's going to be … Continue reading Packing for a Girls Trip
Packing for Spain
There's nothing like packing for a Summer holiday when it's raining outside! It's such a great feeling and so nice to see my Summer wardrobe again. Plus I actually have hold luggage for this trip - woohoo! This is a family holiday and we're going to be spending it partly in the Catalonian countryside and partly … Continue reading Packing for Spain
Packing for the Côte d’Azur
After a very wet week in the UK I'm taking a lot of pleasure in packing for Nice. It's been a while since I went to the French Riviera but because my hubby and I have been before it's mostly going to be a flop and drop holiday. We're really looking forward to spending some time … Continue reading Packing for the Côte d’Azur
Packing for Rome
Oh dear, I seem to be suffering from the usual packing dilemma - I want to fit half my wardrobe into a teensy-weensy piece of hand luggage. It doesn't help that I appear to have lost all willpower at the last minute and have been seeing more of my DHL man (Hi Dave!) than my own husband. … Continue reading Packing for Rome
