Rottnest Island

I recently went for a four day holiday in Australia's own little island paradise, Rottnest Island. Rottnest is easily my favourite place, although I haven't even been out of Australia yet so I'm sure that will change (hopefully some day soon!)

Anyway, I thought I would share my favourite outfit from my stay.

 

What to pack for travelling in summer:

• Pack pieces you can layer for cooler nights (especially because mosquitos will often be out to play!) For example;  Cardigans, maxi dresses/skirts
• Items that are light, but will still protect you from the sun (eg light material sleeved tops, button up shirts)
• Something you can easily take from day to night, eg a simple black maxi you can dress up with a statement necklace or a nice top you can wear with a day maxi skirt or with shorts at night. I wore this skirt with a black top to take it from day to night
• A trusty backpack to lug around your daily travelling essentials eg a waterbottle, sunscreen, wallet, camera etc
• A fabulous hat that will actually protect you from the sun.
• Comfortable walking shoes
• Bug spray!
