Last weekend we went away to a lovely country hotel for our 10th anniversary. I thought I would share with you the accessories that I took as I travelled really light and used my accessories to dress up. This is what I took...
We each took a leather weekend bag, one tan/cognac and one in black. We’ve been using these bags for years and the leather is still fabulous the great quality and always look the part when you arrive somewhere nice. They have the option of a Crossbody strap or a handle. They are the perfect size for a night way or two. At £158 they are great value and would make a great birthday gift.
I carried my washed leather studded mobile phone bag in tan. I went for this colour as I as it matched my sandals. It meant my phone was always close to hand. It’s perfect when you don’t need to carry a lot around. I knew we’d be doing the odd walk and I didn’t need to take a lot of things.
Leather basket - I went for the open weave leather basket, the new size which was perfect for carrying my things to the pool. I added the crochet cherry charm for a pop of colour.
My daytime jewellery consisted of my large t bar gold necklace, my heart mother of pearl necklace, layered with it and my charm hoop earrings. I wore the black aviators with brown lenses.
For the evening, I opted for the gold crystal bag to dress up my brown one shoulder dress. I also wore gold Sandals so this was perfect. I went for a statement earring as my hair was back on the one shoulder. I think looks better with earrings than with a necklace. The earrings were the large gold shells.
And here's a closer look at the earrings. Cheers!
