Work trip help!

Help! I'm going on a 2 night trip with clients to a Balearic island next month and have no idea what to wear.

I am around an 8/10 pear shaped, no boobs, redhead, pale skin, middle aged. Look good in green, want to look fabulous and effortless. No itinerary as yet but likely to include a couple of posher evening meals. Ideas for footwear welcomed too. Ive bought some brown heeled gladiator style sandals from New Look.

I have some bikinis but lately lost some weight and so swimwear for flatter chested pear shapes appreciated!

Also ideas for a smart beach bag, possibly wicker but packs easily or could double as handbag for trip. Only taking a small 10kg carry on case and my enormous sun hat 🤣

Thanks so much for any advice. I'm totally out of my comfort zone.

Beach bag- KALIDI FANCY FOREST Foldable Mesh . Folds up nice and small.

Use packing cubes, you'll get much more use of your space!

This dress could work? It could easily be dressed up or down depending on what shoes you put with it Women's Ava Linen-Blend Shirt Dress in Teal from Crew Clothing.

Thanks @xmasdealhunter I like both of those and the styling tips for the dress. I have packing cubes so will use those - we usually use them for camping where we take the kitchen sink but I can see they'll be useful here too 😊
