Thanks Helen - I used to be rubbish but I've gotten better. I find it helps if you promise yourself lots of shopping! xx

Haha - another chocolate lover! My friend's husband hid them in his briefcase so the kids wouldn't devour the lot in the space of a couple of days! x

I'm glad you approve! Love my navy too and it worked so well as a base...and yes, the chocolate hole was filled many times over. Thought I'd never get the case shut! x

Thanks Jane - the jeans were just the best for travelling in. So soft and comfy but yet they looked chic as they fitted so well. Ax

Do you know, I wasn't so sure myself but they just take a bit of getting used to. I found googling images of other bloggers wearing them was helpful. Here's hoping I can inspire you - they certainly are super comfy! Ax

Thank you lovely - it was just perfect for the journey as it wasn't that warm on Saturday. But I went with trainers in the end and it was a good move as I did a fair bit of walking! Hope you had a good long weekend, Ax

Lol Fiona - I was so close to doing that 'chucking in a few extra bits' because I had the room but I'm so glad I didn't as I had no room at all coming home! x

Thank you Sharron - you've got a bit of packing to do yourself. Looking forward to hearing about your trip away soon x

Well apart from anything else, the Cadbury's chocolate gets my vote! Perfect wardrobe selection, loving Maison Scotch jeans too! xx

A little planning is so worth it. Gone are the days when I chucked everything in a suitcase and hoped for the best. Of course I love your colour palette as it's based on my favourite neutral, navy. Hope you had a fab time with your son (great Birthday pressie) and you managed to fill the chocolate hole left in your suitcase with some new purchases xx

I'm also considering a pair of Birkenstocks but I can't decide if they are just too ugly. Can I pull them off? Will be interested to see how you get on with them. Enjoy your trip!

Oh wow those jeans look GREAT and I am so in love with those Clarks brogues. Have a fun trip in Germany and thank you for the tips on a capsule wardrobe which in theory (to me) sounds great but I am RUBBISH at packing lightly!

Have a great time and well done on getting those shoes - what a result! xx

2014-05-02T11:30:43.000+01:00

How wonderful hope you have a fab time in Germany. Love the outfit, the jeans do look gorgeous on you, a super fit. I love a breton and have just done a blog on capsule packing and definitely have the same ideas as you which is good as I am notoriously bad at packing small!! Have fun on your first of many international trips this month, you are officially an international jetsetter and a stylish one at that! xxxx
