Don't let a trip to the excess baggage queue ruin your flight path to the sun, by keeping it simple with a mix and match capsule wardrobe that will take you from beach to bar
JUST behind flight delays, packing and unpacking came second in a recent poll of the most irritating things about holidays by sun protection brand P20.
Avoid the packing pressure and beat the limited luggage restrictions with a capsule wardrobe that will mix and match, to take you from daytime sand to sunset sangrias effortlessly.
Don't leave home without packing a beach bag, bright sandals and statement kaftan for a sun, sea and sand jaunt.
Embrace the Seventies trend with floaty fabrics like chiffon wide-leg pants and maxi dresses that can double up as a beach cover-up or pool bar glamour. For added statement accessorising (and sun protection), this season's floppy wide-brim hat is a must.
Opt for fabrics that don't crease easily and will look oh-so wearable when pulled straight from your packing piles.
