What to pack-a weekend in the countryside :)

This weekend can't come quick enough! Me and Tom are off to Wales for the weekend as his family has a little cottage there, right near the beach! I have been counting down the minutes until we can set off, since Monday morning.!

I'm not entirely sure what to expect (Toms in charge of this weekend!) or what the weather will be doing. So when it came to packing i decided it would be best to have  a mix of everyday clothes and some of my walking/outdoor kit so that all bases are covered!

This was a bit of a challenge as i absolutely hate over packing!! I like to be organised and take just what i need, but at the same time without restricting myself too much. So i thought id write a little fashion-y post about everything I decided to take:


  • My lightweight waterproof-pretty essential for any outdoor activities 
  • My ski jacket-In-case it gets a bit too cold for just my waterproof
  • My ridding boots-that double up as wellies 
  • My Walking Boots-Because my ridding boots have very little tread
  • A pair of comfy everyday shoes
  • Walking Leggings-For walking (pretty self explanatory)
  • A couple of pairs of jeans
  • some basic T-Shirts
  • A scarf
  • a hat ...or two! 
  • Thick socks-For wearing around the house and with my boots etc
  • A pair of gloves- Unlikely that I'l need them, but i suffer from such bad white finger that its always worth packing a pair, just in-case!
  • Underwear
  • Pj's
  • Snugly/warm jumpers- for out and about and cuddling up in at night
  • Make-up, hairbrush, toiletries-The most obvious, but also the things i always always forget at lest one of!
  • Knee bandage- I damaged my knee last year in Italy,never really recovered 
  • My rucksack 






So exciting, only one more sleep and one more morning at work and then we will be on our way! :)

Whatever everyone is up to this weekend, i hope its really lovely
