Packing for a late summer break

We are off to Spain for some last minute summer sun during half term and as usual a lot of thought has gone into planning what to take! The forecast is looking good at 21c most days, however I am guessing the temps will drop off a bit in the evenings and some days it looks as though it could be a bit overcast. Obviously this presents me with a bit of a dilemma but hopefully I have covered most eventualities.......if not I will have a fab excuse to hit the shops (which is what I'm planning on doing anyway whilst the hubby golfs anyway!).

Starting with my travelling outfit! We have a really early start with a flight at 6.30am so I'm wearing trews, trainers and layering up with a t-shirt, sweatshirt and my Muubaa biker jacket which will no doubt be very useful for the evening chill whilst we are away!

As per usual I am sticking with my mostly black uniform with a splash of grey, khaki and red just to ring the changes. I would never normally pack any jeans for a summer holiday but I figure on this trip it's best to take one pair just in case!

One last outfit today sporting my gorgeous new Donna Ida cashmere sweater courtesy of  @HeroStockbridge after winning their fabulous Instagram competition to celebrate their first year of trading! As you can see....it slots perfectly into my wardrobe and could well now be coming away with me!

Here are all my goodies!

That's all from me for the next week or so, I  really am in need of a break from pretty much all things web related! I will try to post my outfits of the day on Instagram...internet connection permitting. I look forward to sharing my Spanish purchases with you when I get back!
