Staycation
The trick to packing for a Staycation is not taking items of comfort, but picking bits that scare you most when packing for a regular holiday. Like colour, or patterns, or spiders. Whatever. Milk the fact that there is no 23kg allowance and the fact that your orange heels don’t need to match with at least five outfit variations. Here are some of my favourites from Avenue32.
Can we all agree that staycations are possibly the best thing since sliced bread? I mean, if all roads lead to Rome, you all know that all conversation topics lead to BEING A HERMIT, here in this establishment. We love the couch, we revere the remote, we worship the crisps. I also happen to love packing and think I may have mastered – for now – packing under duress (usually with the taxi outside). Four minutes TOPS and I’m out, and proud to have not lost a phone cable since 2013. Add this all together and it’s waking up in Notting Hill (at the Laslett – my new love – to be precise) and being pretty sure all my kidneys (and dignity) are intact, because I brought both the good champagne and the husband, from home. Yet, I can’t help but feel a tinge of excitement to see your lover (in this case London), from the other side of the bed.
The point of all this, of course, is to leave you at home, all 37-minutes-away-on-tube of it. Pack the part of the wardrobe you always longingly glance at but rarely reach into because you don’t know what the weather will be at your destination, or whether it’s versatile enough Tetris piece for your 23kg luggage limit. For me it’s colour, and while I typically only man up to pack one or, at most, two bright pieces, this time I went nuts with bits from Avenue32, who have just gone through site rehaul and the new-in’s are more scrumptious than ever. If I was going to wake up in a different post code, I figured I might as well have fun – might even adopt a gangsta walk while I’m here.
Guys, roleplay is SO underrated.

Not going to lie, as much as I dream about vacations, I am so tempted to finally do a staycation – to just run to a hotel and check myself right in and sink into the bed.. and jump on it maybe.. because I don’t have to make the bed!
You look fabulous in every one of your looks and your favourites are having me longing for a good shopping trip too! If these are the pieces you are almost afraid of, be afraid no more, you look great!

I’m so impressed that you haven’t ever lost a phone charger cable! I feel like I lost mine a couple times, though I’m super careful about them now and haven’t lost one in a while.

Sometimes a proper vacation can be stressful. Like the ones that include tours etc. And for bloggers… I can’t even imagine the stress of update social 24/7! I really want to do a luxury staycation in London!
