Come Sail With Me | Turkey Day 13











Nothing could beat a day sailing upon the crystal turkish sea, bathing on the boat's balcony, enjoying a bubblegum twister and jumping into the water bays for a good cooling down. I was in a very happy place this day - I loved jumping into the sea from the boat as I've always wanted to! The sea was so so salty so it tasted awful but it was all worth it to complete one of the many things on my wishlist.

Today's boat trip involved visiting 5 different coves, including Tarzan Bay, Samanlik Bay and Aquarium Bay, to stop off at and chill in the sea's waves for an hour or so. It was mesmerizing looking down into the water and being able to see so far beneath you. The turquoise blue of the water was so aesthetically pleasing to look at and to capture photos of.

Unfortunately, I woke up with an eye infection this day so was very cautious to jump in but I'm so glad I did it otherwise I would have totally regretted it. Also, I got the chance to snorkel because the boat offered the equipment to do so; I'd never snorkelled before so it took me a while to get the hang of it. The experience was fabulous - it was incredible being able to look so clearly under the sea (Little Mermaid reference - eek) and snoop at the little fishes lives. Here's to another wonderful turkish adventure today - cheers!

Sorry if you're fed up of my constant Turkey posts, I can assure you I will be back with some more beauty in a few days - BE PATIENT!

Until tomorrow...





Dinner View, Orange Lips and Night Time Antics |Turkey Day 10










Ever since I've arrived at the Green Forest Hotel, I have not once been disappointed with the food. There is variation at dinner daily and foods from all different cultures so there is something for everyone which is lovely. I was a huge fan of their chicken kebab sticks, their beef and also their grilled chicken (not photographed). How could you not enjoy dinner anyway when you're admiring this beautiful view out of the window?!

Tonight, I decided to whip out my black skort and pair it with a hot red crop top; to further add to the outfit I borrowed Jess' qwerky kimono, which I must say I'm very jealous of! Oh, and what other lipstick could compliment an outfit better than good ol' Mac's Lady Danger! 

After a wonderful night of playing pool, listening to the music and watching the entertainment it was time for bed. All these days of relaxing and doing nothing exhaust me...don't ask me how. Craving oreos has become my thing out here in Turkey so I ended the evening with a nice cuppa and some oreos.

Until tomorrow...

Let's Go To The Beach | Turkey Day 5













Right, so today was beach day and I must say that I may have held my expectations too high after witnessing the beautiful photographs of the Oludeniz online. Despite the photos I took above being stunningly picturesque, it was a disappointment to me that the shore was made of thousands of tiny rocks/pebbles and not sand, as the online photos misled - but hey, that might just be a personal preference right?! 

Tonight's evening outfit was a simple monochrome look. A plain black skater skirt paired with a long sleeved, but light, striped top. Jess went completely opposite to my two-toned outfit by wearing a vibrant orange top and checkered skort. Mac's Lady Danger came in handy to give a pop of colour to my monochromal attire also. 

I'm loving every single day, I never want to return home :) There is also progression on the tanning front - woo!

Until tomorrow...

Turkish Town, Cocktails and A Swan Suprise | Turkey Day 4


                     






                   



Visiting the town this night was the highlight of my day; it was very refreshing to leave the hotel after spending the first few days in our resort. In a way, I would say that the experience was very overwhelming - the streets were packed with hundreds of people, multiple pubs/restaurants around every corner, loud music overlapping each other from the different night clubs and vibrant colours lighting the warm summer night.

Inhaling the towns active atmosphere, Jess, her parents and I sat down at a bar to take everything in; Jess and I opted for a cosmopolitan which was absolutely delicious. We explored the town by strolling down the lighted streets and having a good ol' laugh at some of the shop names (eg. British Hairways).

On returning to our room earlier on in the day, me and Jess were surprised to see two cute little swans sculpted by our freshly cleaned towels. The cleaners are so lovely and decorated our bed with flowers as well! Hospitality and service has been phenomenal ever since we arrived at the hotel.

My outfit of the evening was a nude, tight-fitted skirt, a plain black cami top with a kimono. I felt a dark lip colour would work really well to create a sultry look, paired with a light smokey eye. Also, I'm loving what the water is doing to my hair here - every time I leave the water, the sun dries my hair in seconds leaving soft loose curls.  

Until tomorrow...



Come Fly With Me | Turkey Day 1




During my flight yesterday noon, an idea sprung to mind...I thought I would write a post the following day based on my holiday activities. Not only would this be great for personal memories in the future but I would love to share with friends and viewers what I'm getting up to, all the photographs I take and my planned outfits for both day and night. 

The flight was 4 hours long but it went swiftly, followed by an hour journey up a mountain to our hotel resort; we arrived in the middle of the night so fell asleep almost instantly. (After struggling to connect to wifi at 4am as Jess laughed hysterically considering she connected instantaneously *eye rolls* what are best friends for??) I also forgot to mention that I picked up Mac Soft & Gentle at duty free - so happy after a long time lusting it!!!

Until tomorrow 💖


Carry On Flight Essentials



As everyone seems to be heading off to tropical islands and sandy beaches, including myself to Turkey tomorrow evening, I thought I would upload a post dedicated to my hand luggage. Here are my personal holy grail items to carry on board with me whilst on the plane.

My carry on essentials this summer will be stored in my new mint green rucksack, which I can say was an absolute bargain (eight freakin' pounds!!!) from Primark. Not only the rucksack being my favourite colour, it is also a perfect size for storing what I need, helping me to concise with what I require on the flight and will look fabulous with many an outfit when strolling down to the beach.

Books/magazines are a huge must for me on board and during a relaxing holiday. I take a book/magazine or two to pass time on lengthy flights and when chilling in the sun's generous 36 degree rays. Next, a favourite of all - especially for those who despise reading of any sort. Almost everyone I know cannot travel anywhere without taking headphones; listening to music passes time in a fun way. I couldn't forget these - SWEETS! Nothing passes time better than eating and eating and eating until your plane finally lands at your destination. I also like to carry a packet of mints/gum to keep my breath smelling great until I can brush my teeth again. 

The camera I will be taking snaps on this year is my pink digital polaroid, along with my iphone 5s - I tend to get snap happy when I'm soaring through the air and take 100s of photos before I've even arrived of the wonderful views from above. Many people, often older, would much prefer to kill time by taking a long nap on the plane - a good ol' eye mask helps a lot when the plane's on-board lights are on full beam. Penultimately, you musn't forget to shove your purse in before leaving. Imagine how much of a disaster it would be if you had no money to purchase some pointless junk memorabilia?! Finally, sunglasses break almost instantly in a suitcase so I would advise you to take them in your handbag/rucksack. 

Where are you going away this year? What do you NEED in your carry on?

Love
