PACKING FOR A CRUISE TRIP

Today I am daydreaming about sunnier climes with Bolsover Cruise Club. A Mediterranean cruise around Europe's sun-soaked beaches taking in Italy and Croatia's coastlines with a  Venice pit stop in one trip? I'm sold. I have visited all these destinations previously, but there's something about combining them all in one trip that feel intoxicatingly glamorous. Inevitably being a fashion nut, this then leads to me dreaming about the wardrobe I'd pack for a glamorous jaunt around the Med. A palette of navy and white feels suitably Cruise-like, with a red lip and flashes of gold to up the ante (if you've ever been to Venice you will know you can certainly afford to up the glamour in the city of romance.) Here's the capsule wardrobe I have in mind:

CHOOSING MY FIRST PAIR OF GLASSES WITH SPECSAVERS

Hypochondria should be my middle name - heck, it’s been remarked that Monica Gellar appears placid in comparison to me. Imagine then, the apprehensions I allowed to enter my consciousness when my eyesight began to blur around 10pm each evening. Cue some misguided self-diagnosis via Doctor Google and I convinced myself that this 100% had to be cataracts. Ridiculous as this sounds, I hadn't taken an eye test in a good eighteen years & I’m was optically ill-educated as they come.

COMPETITION: WIN YOURSELF A JONES BOOTMAKER VOUCHER!

Jones Bootmaker isn't a shop I've bought shoes at before, however having visited their website recently, I'm already planning my first purchase. Amongst the practical styles are cool shoes, that are crucially – built to last. Forget flimsy ghillie flats with paper thin soles that bring nothing but pain when you’re pounding the pavements; Jones’ ghillies incorporate sturdy soles without compromising on style.

I am a bearer of good news; if your wardrobe needs an update, Jones are offering one LFF reader £30 towards their next purchase. To win the voucher, all you need to do is follow the LFF Twitter using the entry form after the jump & the winner will be announced next week on my Twitter. And if you still need convincing (WHY?!), here’s an edit of my favourite styles from the S/S collection:
