What's In My Suitcase Menorca 2015

Here's what I have packed for myself.

6 bikinis

3 bags - a beach bag, evening bag, and everyday bag (for trips)

4 bikini cover-ups

3 everyday outfits of shorts and tops

My flipflops and sandals

Everyday dresses

Cardigans

Maxi dresses

Dresses

More dresses

And more dresses

I like to get a bit more dressed up in the evening. And I prefer not to wear the same dress twice in the evening, although I will have too. Haha!

I'm hoping to get some outfit pictures of us whilst we're away, so hopefully you'll get to see these on. But most of them are older dresses that you won't be able to get hold of any more. And my bikinis are all atleast 2 years old as well. And anything I've bought I in my haul/recent purchases posts so check out them!

I also have a couple of hats, and obviously jewellery and hair accessories as well.

What's In Ben's suitcase Menorca 2015

This is what I have packed for Ben for our holiday. As well as what is photographed I've also added and extra cardigan and another t-shirt. I also have his going home outfit (just some trackies and a long sleeved top and vest). On the way there he will be travelling in his pyjamas with a vest underneath, and I also have a sweatshirt to put on him as well. As our flight is early in the morning, and have to leave our house shortly after midnight, so I figured that was the best thing for him to travel in.

Some basic short and t-shirt outfits, To wear for breakfast/lunch/trips.

Swimming costumes and hats

Swimming nappies, towel poncho and arm bands

Shoes! Fake crocs, smart sandals, jellys, swim/beach shoes, doodles and smart shoes.

4 pairs of trousers that can all be turned up. The first two are from Jojo Maman Bebe, this year. The other two are from last year.

Short dungarees from Zara

Shorts for daytime or evening - these are all from last year and still fit.

Everyday shorts from Jojo Maman Bebe. These are actually slightly too big, but luckily have a drawstring waist so can make them smaller.

Shorts to wear in the evening for dinner.

Shirts to wear in the evening

A couple of thicker items if it's cooler. But in the evening the entertainment is done inside.

T-shirts for daytime or evening

More t-shirts

And more t-shirts

Also a couple of day hats and sunglasses. The sunglasses were £1 each from Primark so it doesn't really matter if he won't wear them.

As I've said before I've tried to even out the weight of the suitcases and got items for each of us in each suitcase. Have also taken lots of nappies and wipes.

Wembley Stadium Play-off Final Norwich v Boro

So if you read my update post, you will know that I was lucky enough to be able to attend the Championship Play-off Final between Norwich and Middlesbrough, I know this won't interest everyone but I thought it would be nice to share the photos of the day.

Whilst I was at Wembley Steve was at work, and my mum was looking after Ben back at our house, and my Grandma and Grandad also popped over to watch the football (a they don't have Sky) and they could see Ben at the same time. Ben was apparently a really good boy (such a relief as he was really naughty for Steve the day before when I was working) and he got a new colouring and sticker book from Grandma, and a car and caravan from Great Grandma. He is so spoilt haha!

My Beauty and Make-up Bags Menorca 2015

After posting Ben's toiletries I thought you would be interested to know what I'm taking.

This is my make-up I'm taking (along with the little amount that's in my carry on). So base wise I have my L'Oreal True Match Foundation in a darker colour, and I'm skipping a powder and just bringing my bronzer and highlighting powders. I have a highlighting concealer as well, and 3 blushes. I have my mascara, and Urban Decay Primer Potion. Also not pictured I am taking my Naked Palettes - I have numbers 2 and 3. But I figured most people know what they look like so I skipped photographing them. Then I have some lip sticks, lip pencils, and lipglosses. I wear zero make-up throughout the day, and just put it on in the evening for our meals. I can't sunbath and wear make-up that's just not good!

Most of my products are in this one toiletry bag.

I have a mini bottle of nail varnish remover, my toothpaste, my Nads Ingrown Hair solution (for my bikini line) and my snap razor.

Next hair care. I got the shampoo and conditioner on 3 for 2 in Boots. I don't condition every time I was my hair, And Steve will probably use some of the shampoo that's why there's 2. I have my mini heat protectants and hairspray, then my Batiste as. From post experience my hair gets super greasy from spending the day sunbathing, but if I can help it I don't want to wash my hair everyday (which I have ended up doing in the past as I haven't bought dry shampoo with me) so dry shampoo is now an essential.

I have a couple of masks that I picked up in Primark, and have popped some exfoliator in the little pot.

As I will be washing my face 3 times a day (morning, evening and night time) I have quite a lot of skincare with me. Soap and Glory's Peaches and Clean will probably get used morning and night, The Simple Refreshing Facial Wash I will use in the shower - early evening (after a day by the pool/beach/trip out, before dinner) and the Bioderma is to take off the majority of my make-up. I also have some face wipes - I only ever use them on holiday!

Toners, moisturisers, eyecream, and my spot fighting Sebium AKN.

I got my suncream in a set, and it came in this handy bag.

As I always go for the Tan and Protect range by Soltan, I spotted this set with Factor's 30 and 15 and an aftersun! Was about £13 I think! Snapped it up right away. I then found the face suncream in the same range in factor 30. And I've managed to squeeze in my exfoliator for my body as well.
