As per the title, I’m just looking for inspiration and interested to see what people are buying.

The last thing I bought was a pair of board shorts, neither stylish or beautiful, but practical.

https://www.next.co.uk/style/su771744/w66520 I’ve just bought these, I wanted some linen trousers but with a proper waistband, I don’t like the drawcord that a lot of them seem to have.

I've recently bought a fab new washbag which has loads of different compartments and is great for UK trips rather rhan packing lots of smaller bags. Also a green v neck jumper from a charity shop for £5 to stash for winter. Also treated myself to an Ambre Solaire over make up spray as I was using an SPF under my make up and it was making my face so shiny. Waiting for this to arrive so I can try it out.

I've just bought two crochet type tops from Roman in cream and denim blue.
They look so nice on and are perfect for summer with a sleeveless T underneath or camisole.

Cream linen barrel trousers. Only tried them for the colour but they look great - whereas the wide legged ones I also tried looked messy and overpowering. Also loads of tops go well with them.

Ooh! Just what I need! Please can you tell us where they're from? Thank you.

Ooh where did you get your wash bag from? I need a new one and can't seem to find one with enough pockets!

I've never done a link before so let me know if this works. I saw it on Tik Tok but bought on Amazon. It's great, got it in the dusky pink colour. I was taking away a washbag, make up bag and medication bag - got it all into 1 bag. I'd even consider giving my husband a compartment 🤣
