Hi Hi,

3 Day London Trip on a BUDGET… Let’s get into it.

As much as I hate the fact that hand luggage is no longer free on most airlines anymore. I was kindly bought a Travel Hack- Cabinmax hand luggage for Christmas from Jordan, which is FREE on Easyjet, British Airways and lots of other big airlines. However, Ryanair is not one of them for my specific bag.

Here’s my 3 Tips to Pack for a 3 Day Trip using only the FREE Ryanair Luggage Allowance:

1.    PACKING CUBES. PACKING CUBES. PACKING CUBES.

If you don’t know, get to know. This way your clothes are taking up as little space as possible and you don’t have to worry about messing up your bag every time you open it! I used ones from eBay from years ago (literally like 2014 lol), if you click the word eBay above I’ve linked some cheapies if your interested !

2.    TRY OUTFITS ON BEFORE YOU GO.

As I mentioned we are travelling in August, this means making use of dresses! They are one piece of clothing, they can be dressed up or down and they are easy to roll and efficient to pack. We have a fun weekend planned full of walking, eating, seeing and sitting so comfort is key! I will be wearing my DM Voss sandals with my airport outfit and everyday we’re in London. They are my favourite shoes to wear, they are comfortable and they can be worn casually or dressed up for dinner/ going out.

I’ve chose these 3 dresses to bring with me because they all matched the shoes and bag I had for the 3 days !

1. Is a beautiful Primark dress, I got mine in the sale in January for £7 (I doubt its still available with the rate things come and go in primary lol). It’s simple, one piece and takes up little space.

2. This is actually my graduation dress from Urban Threads on ASOS! This was a total bargain for £13.50. Again its black and light, so perfect for the summer heat and not too tight for eating all the tasty food.

3. I LOVE THIS DRESS!!! This is a wee ASOS Design number, which I got on sale for Ed Sheeran back in May & I love rewearing it! This was only £17.35, they still have a few sizes if your wanting a nice light cotton dress.

I did actually wear some dressy trousers and Zara racer crop top to the airport as a fourth option if the weather didn’t go as planned, I ended up not wearing it but Hannah did!

(Little extra tip, if you travel buddy is the same size as you mix and match!!!)

3.    ASK YOURSELF DO YOU NEED IT

I know it’s definitely easier said than done being realistic about what you’re genuinely going to use vs the irrational fear of not bringing something you probably haven’t used in the last six month at home.

In terms of makeup, this is always the one I am the most unrealistic with! I always bring too much just incase… I didn’t this time! I quite literally didn’t have enough room to do this so I really had to sit back and look at what I use every single time I do my makeup. From this I cut down have the makeup and brushes I’d usually bring & never make use of.

Would we like to see a ‘Doing London on a Budget- Price Breakdown’? This is definitely something I would love to do! Let me know in the comments.
