My Skiing Wish List

-
Hello Wonderful People!

I'm going skiing in less than a week and I'm SUPER EXCITED. There's 26 of us going and we've hired out 3 chalets, so it's going to be a pretty epic holiday. I've not been skiing in nearly 2 years, and the last time I went was only for a day when I was in New Zealand. So I'm now counting down the days till I'm back on the slopes. We are planning on hiring retro ski outfits on one of the days for fancy dress on the slopes. So if you happen to be in Les Gets in France during the first week of March and see 26 brightly coloured people skiing in a line; that'll probably be me and my friends. I've pretty much got my ski wear sorted. I've treated myself to a new ski jacket and have dug out my old salopettes and ski accessorise, so I'm all ready for the slopes. However, I've decided I need lots of new clothes for my time off the slopes. Jumpers, hats, boots or anything warm and snuggly. Any excuse to go shopping, eh?


Skiing Wish List
I'm totally loving bobble hats at the moment and this one from Topshop is lovely. I love the colours and it would keep my head nice and toasty when I'm off the slopes. Plus it would go quite nicely with my new ski jacket, so I'd get double the use out of it!

Check patterns and tartan seem to be all the rage at the moment. Therefore, this jumper from New Look would be ideal for keeping me nice and warm in the snowy weather, plus I'd be bang on trend. And we all know how important that would be. I also love the red check scarf, from ASOS, and have wanted one of these for ages. As it's really chunky, it would look great layered over a jumper or leather jacket.

Now it's fair to say that I really don't need any more new shoes, especially boots. However, I love these cut out heeled boots from Miss Selfridge and feel that they'd be a great addition to my wardrobe. Sadly, I don't think I can quite justify splashing out on a new pair of boots, when I already have 4 pairs sitting in my cupboard at home.

I'm praying that the weather is going to be clear and sunny when I arrive in France next week. It's currently snowing at the moment, which means there'll be loads of pow pow ready and waiting. I hate skiing when it's snowing, as it's impossible to tell sky from snow and isn't much fun to ski in. Therefore, I'd love this pair of sunglass, so I could wear them on the slopes instead of goggles.

Finally, I'd love to treat myself to these beautiful leather gloves from ASOS. However, they come in at a cool £110, and I definitely can not justify spending that when I'm about to go on holiday. I love them though and can always dream...

So if anyone fancies treating me to any of the above, that would be much appreciated. TA!

    Haha..! Your skiing wishlist sure seems lovely (oh and you really should get those heels!)

    But don't forget to bring some practical clothing as well - if the snow is high those cut out ankle boots will certainly get your feet wet very fast! :)

I know at this time of year people are usually planning trips away in the sunshine; but (if you're organised) these will have been planned for quite a few months in advance. Now is actually a good time to get ahead of the crowd and be thinking about winter holidays. Summer has just arrived and the majority of people aren’t thinking of a winter holiday just yet, so it's the perfect time to book! Plus, booking early means you can usually can get amazing prices and deals. Skiing and snowboarding holidays are such fun, even if you are a beginner! They're my favourite type of holiday so are the perfect choice for a winter getaway. I would love to ski in Canada one day, so I’m sharing my love for all things Canadian today. I've been there in the summer before, but it would be a great destination choice for a winter holiday!

Hello Wonderful People! I love being a vegetarian; I've been one all my life and would never dream of changing my eating habits. However, being veggie can be a royal pain in the a hole when travelling. There are some countries that are really good for veggies and there are others that look at you with disgust when you ask if there’s a veggie option. You’d be surprised at the amount of people who have no idea what the word vegetarian means and who offer you chicken as an alternative. The last time I checked, chicken was definitely meat. So here is a list of the best and the worst countries that  I've  been to as a veggie.

Top 5 Places I Want to Revisit

Hello Wonderful People!   As a self-confessed travel addict suffering from a sever case of wanderlust, I love nothing more than exploring new places, meeting different people and seeing new things. Therefore, once I’ve visited somewhere once I like to tick it off my list and head onto the next destination. As there are so many new places to discover in the world, I don’t want to waste my time going over old ground. Despite this, there have been several places I’ve visited where I’ve completely fallen in love and would like nothing more than to go back and do a bit more exploring. I’m completely torn between jetting off somewhere new, or going back to an old favourite, it’s a tough decision. If I were to choose the latter, these are definitely the 5 places I’d love to revisit.
