College students will be waiting for their summer break..
Schools will be closing for summers. Kids every where. Cities are
getting emptier.. N holiday destinations getting busier n crowded.

Destination 2
When ur booking or choosing holiday destination do check for the temp of
the region through ur app so as to choose the kind of jackets n sweaters needed
to be packed ..
1. For really cold places plz refer to my earlier blog for winter
wear.
2. For medium cool places you could work with layering clothes..
We can do this with :
- ·
Shrugs (short long )
- ·
Thrown on a shawl or a stole.
- ·
Jackets
- ·
Large thick denim shirt S with cross
back Ts inside and add shirt below the denim shirt, for this combination. You can also team it with a denim/thicker or a
checks /white shirt.
- ·
Also don't forget to accessories with
a layered necklace..

got urself a great look.
For
bottoms team this up with.
1.Types of jeans mentioned before
2. Skirts with leggings n boots
3. Thick leggings with leg warmers.
4. Dresses with stockings or tights.
Carry cold creams lotions for the cold.
Let's not forget footwear for the trip.
1.Comfy sports shoes
2. Boots at least above ur ankles (woodland ones are really sturdy) with
a good rubber grip soles.
3. Sliders or slippers to walk around ur hotel or near by place.
4. Party shoes not a necessity but if ur really picky for coordinating
ur clothes with shoes then maybe go for sme light weight kitten
heels/platforms. Or flats. (heels is are up to ur personal judgement only).
Now for the Main Bag:.
1. The one tht carries your clothes should be light lesser the self
weight the better.
2. Make sure if ur travelling by public transportation have a small lock
n key or a combination for it for safe keeping.
3. Carry a small handbag with ur ID n money n cards keys etc.
Miscellaneous
travel tips :
1. Fold ur clothes into small folds make room for more luggage. Fold it
socks in keep them in ur extra shoes.
2. Roll it jeans n T-shirt s into small cylinders for more space. (fold
them into regular T-shirt fold the roll them up)
3.Carry your own bottle of water. To avoid getting dehydrated while
traveling to the destination. N back.
4. Lotions, shampoos, sunscreen also needed in the cool places.
So hope the bank holiday on 29th n 30th through 1st or 2nd April is a
great weekend trip for all.
All in all a very exciting week ahead so happy shopping n packing.. So
let the destination be D1 the fun the beach or destination be the fun
