ermmm...can't think of much more., apart from toiletries and stuff.

Sorry.............I don't really travel light!!! ?

Ooh that's a good list for me too - thanks! We're off to Mexico on 26th Aug for 11 nights and so far I seem to have about 8 bikinis and 5 dresses for the evening and that's about it! The linen trousers are a good idea, I think I'll go and get some of those.

Ta!

Ali :o)

Thank you

We are flying first class so have extra luggage allowance, plus my suitcase is quite big and as I don't want my straighteners getting thrown round and damaged I need to fill it ? (any excuse)

Good list. But I was thinking, is 12 bikinis and 2 swimsuits too many??? I just can't stop myself buying the things!!!! ?

Wow! thats more bikini's than I have owned in my life time, let alone at one time!!

If you've got the allowance take everything!!

I went to Egypt for two weeks last year, it was incredibly hot and I had to stick to under 20kgs so my list was something like....

5 bikinis

4 shorts - surf style for beach

2 tailored shorts for evening

few evning tops

lots of vest tops for the day

beach towel / bag / sunglasses

3 evening dresses

1 pair silver evening shoes which would go with anything

1 pair of flip flops (I bought some Havianas out there because they were cheap)

trainers and gym gear (our hotel had a gym so i trained in the morning)

silver evening bag which goes with the shoes and everything else

hope that helps have a fab hols!
