Yumi postcard dress

Travel Wallet* – Yumi

As you probably already know, I went to Amsterdam a few weeks ago so when I was asked if I would like to feature any products from Yumi on my blog, I couldn’t wait to pick an outfit for my travels. I wore this outfit when I went to the Rijksmuseum, Anne Frank’s house and three other museums.

I thought that the postcard dress was perfect for a summer holiday due to the print and I love how it’s fitted at the waist but still has quite a full skirt. It’s nice and light so I didn’t get too hot when the temperature tipped 30 degrees! I didn’t wear the boots while I was away as  I didn’t think they would be the most appropriate of footwear when it was so hot but I do really love them and can’t wait to style them up in the autumn when it gets a bit cooler.

The travel wallet was perfect for my holiday – I managed to pack everything I needed in it including my passport, plane tickets, Euros, travel cards, EHIC and various museum tickets. I’d always wanted a travel wallet before but had never found one that could hold everything until now. I also accessorised with these Carrera sunglasses which are fantastic when it’s so bright. They’re definitely better than cheap Primark sunglasses when it comes to protecting your eyes.

    That wallet!! I’ve always loved Yumi’s dresses. This was a great choice and the perfect outfit for exploring the city. The Rijksmuseum was being renovated when I was there last so I missed half of it. I loved the dolls houses in there. Beautiful!
