Great list! I find making a list really helps with packing. It helps me keep to a minimum of what I need, and ensures I don't forget the essentials. I like that you mention not to bring heels - I always do and always regret it!

2012-07-13T14:56:11.427+01:00

HI Avril, please could you tell me where you bought your neutral blazer from which you are taking on holiday with you and also your neutral cross body bag that you will wear on the plane? Both are items that I would love to own. I have never posted before but have been following your blog since I read about you in the daily mail. I find your blog really inspiring and you have really helped me fashion wise with lots of your style ideas. I am finally emerging from the rut that is 'black leggings everyday' and just wanted to thank you for that. Enjoy Cornwall. It is a beautiful place.

I have only posted as anon as I can't work out how to put my URL in?

2012-07-13T13:04:43.636+01:00

I'm a "throw everything in for all occasions" kind of girl and honestly go away for a weekend with 6 or more pairs of shoes just in case.
I see you've laid your clothes out in outfits, a bit like meal planning for your two weeks. Perhaps if I did that, i'd not end up with a bulging suitcase, nothing to wear and an over luggage fee to pay at the check in desk.
Great tips, enjoy your holiday
