Travel // A relaxing holiday in Menorca.

So today's post is something a little different. I recently visited the beautiful island of Menorca and being a place I have visited many times before, I thought I would write a post about not only my recent stay but also some of my favourite aspects of the island.

So firstly lets talk FOOD! I am a serious lover of Spanish food! Paella, Spanish omelettes and deep fried squid..I love it all! Menorca has the most gorgeous cuisine and an array of quaint cafes and restaurants, all offering home made dishes. I mean.. look at the Tapas!!

I went to Menorca with my Mum, Dad, Brother and Sister and it was so lovely to spend some quality time with my family! We stayed in Calla en Porter which is a beautiful town with stunning views and all the necessities you will need! My family own a villa here so we have visited quite a few times and I still love it! It is such a welcoming and homely town! The beach was about a 15 minute walk from our villa and it was amazing. Soft sand and crystal clear sea! We took a pedalo out one day and snorkeled around the rocks. 

When it comes to what I wore on holiday, if I'm honest I didn't take many outfit photos due to it being so hot! But my sister and I did wear some really pretty metallic temporary tattoos to dinner most nights, which were sold in the cutest boutique in the town! 

I hope you've enjoyed taking a little look at my holiday snaps and maybe I have inspired you to visit Menorca! It really is a stunning island which offers the traditional buildings and villas, along side beautiful new swimming pools and shops and restaurants which make the stay extra special!

Lots of Love,

I Love Ebay!

 

All shorts: EBAY :)

Crop: Topshop

Shoes: Newlook

Hello Lovelies! So today's post is dedicated to one of my new loves.. Ebay! Now I know Ebay has been around for ages now, but I haven't really used it up until a few months ago. I love unique clothing and items that are a bit out of the ordinary so ebay is right up my street for this purpose! I was browsing a few weeks ago and after seeing some super edgy denim shorts,  I decided I needed some levi shorts in my life. As you can see, I ended up buying 2 pairs and also these beautiful Topshop Silk shorts too haha. But £30 for 3 cool pairs of shorts.. who could say no?

So I thought I'd share my tips when it comes to buying on Ebay:

1.  When it comes to shorts especially and I'd say most clothing really, ALWAYS go for a bigger size rather than a smaller (This applies majorly to Levis which come up around 2 sizes small).
2. Buy from a UK seller if you want to receive your item within the next 3 months haha.
3. Don't be scared to ask sellers questions- there nothing worse than hoping something will fit and receiving it and realising that sadly it doesn't.
4. If the item seems too good to be true.. it probably is (I have brought some really crap stuff haha).
5. Always look at a seller's other items.. If a seller has one nice item, the odds are they have more lovely items for sale too.
6. Most importantly.. You can find some real steals and really cool items on Ebay.. So enjoy it and allow some time to browse.

So I hope this post has been helpful and inspired you! Let me know what Ebay bargains you've found! And let me know if you'd enjoy a post about selling on Ebay too!

Lots of Love,
