These are great tips every girl should follow!
I love those - yep, I tend to pack all of them too!
Another favourite for me when travelling is a 60s baker-boy cap or cashmere beany: weatherproof, bad-hair-hiding, dressed up with the pin or down as needed. I have quite a collection!
Hi my dear-top tips indeed, a girl always needs a vintage dress on her travels! Have a great week x
