Thank you Madammmecholet,however what about shoes..it's always the shoes that I take too many!

sorry just re-read

Just got back from a very hot 2 weeks in the greek islands, and I hardly wore my capri trousers at all..... it was too hot to want something around my waist. Dresses (sleeveless) better. Shifty or floaty, whatever you prefer. Maxi dresses too hot as well.

Re: shoes, beach flip flops, non-beach flip flops, gladiators if they are your thing. Couldn't be bothered with heels/wedges, but we had v low key holiday, just family and no going out to glam bars etc. Travelled in sneakers I think.

It's very hot there at the moment. If you're going now, don't bother with cardigans for the evenings and don't bother with maxi anything. I was sweating like a monkey on heat (classy!), so you'll need something that doesn't show off sweat patches!

Have a great time!

i went back in june again very hot, didn't need the cardigans and trousers i packed just incase the evenings are chilly.

I took lots of dresses to keep cool, but i had a problem with chaffing thighs, have never had this before, was glad i took a pair of khaki linen shorts which was ok for evening, all very casual where we stayed.

I wouldn't bother with heels or wedges, the pavements/road are terrible, i wish i had taken my fitflops with a thick sole for all the walking into town every night.

Do think about the material of clothes, some of my dresses made me very sweaty. You won't be able to face using a hairdryer and will need very little makeup.

Have a fabulous time, i'm very jealous
