Hi everyone,
I hope everyone is enjoying this amazing weather,finally a bit of sunshine in Ireland! I've decided to do an Ibiza Edit post seeing as all of my friends are heading there in the next few weeks and as I won't be going (sadface) I picked some of my must haves that I would have purchased If I was making the trip to the golden Island.
Anyone who is going for the first time... be prepared... it is as hardcore as everyone says it is! I went for two weeks one year and I actually needed another holiday to get over it! Seriously tough going, but absolutely unbelievable and well worth it! Honestly it is one of the most magical places in the world, everyone is so happy, the sun is shining the views are amazing and the night life is unlike anywhere else in the world! There is nothing more amazing than sitting with a couple of hundred people along the sunset strip with top DJs from all around the world playing in Cafe Del Mar and watching the sunset, gives me goosebumps thinking about it and I cannot wait to go back!
So I've picked a few pieces that I would most defiantly have in my suitcase for the trip of a lifetime!
River Island Monochrome Drawstring Beach Bag €55.00
I fell in love with this when I was browsing their website. I'd double this as my carry on luggage bag on the plane and also use it going to the beach. I love the monochrome and the gold detail and the drawstring helps secure all your bits and bobs.
Boohoo Wrap Front Halter Neck Body Suit €16 Boohoo Alicia Strappy Front Body €14.00
I picked out these two body suits from Boohoo because I love the detail on both of these. They come in loads of different colours and there so easy to match with a pair of shorts for a night at Amnesia!
New Look Rust Wide Leg Trousers €18.99 Primark White Mesh Sun Hat €4.00
These wide leg trousers from New Look look so comfy and airy and would be perfect for the plane They come in white black and a few other colours and prints but I'm loving the rust colour, very 70s! These are an online exclusive and I actually just bought a pair as part of my post pregnancy wardrobe! I'd team these with the white bodysuit from Boohoo the sun hat which is perfect for protecting your head against the Sun to stop any sun stroke and would make you feel extra fab!
ASOS White Playsuit €27.40 Mango Strap Cord Sandals €24.95
I spotted this playsuit on Asos and thought it would look amazing with these gladiator style sandles from Mango. I love the front detail and it actually gives a cleavage and support because of the two straps so all you members of the itty bitty titty committee rejoice!
Jagged Edge Vintage Custom Made Shorts

Nike Air Max 1 Ultra Moire €132.00
River Island Tassle Bum Bag €25.00
Ok like it or loath it the bum bag is an essential on holiday! I personally love them! There the handiest thing to put all your money and hotel key in with no fear of being robbed or losing it. Do not do not do not attempt to bring a clutch out with you or you will most definitely be crying your eyes out after it's robbed or lost. Seriously you can't shimmy about when you have it stuck under your arm so all the ladies who hate the bumbag embrace it because it's the most practical thing to bring out!
New Look Beach Towel €11.99
I seen this and yes I would buy it and yes I would parade around the beach with it because I like mermaids and would like to be one!
I picked this swimsuit with the vision in mind of having a day at Bora Bora beach. Anyone travelling to Ibiza it's a must on your list especially on a Sunday the beach does be rocking, it's an all day long beach party!!
Missguided Sports Lux Sandals €28.00 HotMess White Mesh Swimsuit €53.57
I'm obsessed with anything Sports Lux, and monchrome, as you can tell I have a lot of black and white included in this post! Honestly most of my wardrobe is black I need to step away from it and branch out a bit but it's just such a versatile colour!!! This swimwuit would be the one I'd wear to Ocean Beach Club along with the sandals. I love the way swimsuits are making a come back because they hide so much of the wobbly bits and you don't feel as nakey!
River Island Two Piece €24.00 & €18.00
Oh I do love a two piece and these high-waisted bottoms suck the belly right in! I like with two pieces the way you could mis match it with another top/bottom and it's like a completely different look, I love the detail on this bikini and how dressy it is, another look that could be worn on a boat party, pair it with your air max or favourite sandals and you'r the hottest piece of ass on the west end!
They have been my favourite picks that I would have purchased if I was heading off with the rest of Ireland to the white Isle!... However I am not as this baby is nearly here, but for averyone that is going here's a few tips
- Don't buy tickets of reps on the beach. More than likely there pricks trying to steal your money and I know so many people who actually have got done by this scam and it's shit when you think your paying €80 for a ticket and it turns out to be a dud. Stick with the ticket sellers from the booths and you'll be safe enough.
- Don't unless you want to waste your money buy tickets of your hotel reps. Yea I know it may seem like it's going to be the best party ever but more than likely it's a shit fest in a kip so don't crumble under the pressure and get tickets off them because some of them are pushy!
- Don't drink the tap water!!! No matter how thirsty and hungover you are, stock up on water when you arrive! I done this and well... it wasn't very pleasant!
- Be wary of where you walk. There's so many prostitutes and pimps about especially car parks so don't venture around these areas.
- Don't entertain the lucky lucky men (men selling all the shit off the day) because they will not leave you alone for the rest of your life!
- Don't be a pleb and wear heels. Seriously? You don't look sexy you look like an uncomfortable giraffe.
- When it comes to make-up invest in a good powder! Worst thing ever looking like a sweaty betty! Also I'd say leave the lashes at home I'm only speaking from experience on how mine hung off my cheek the whole night with out me even realising!
I hope everyone enjoys their holiday and act's the maggot,
Thanks for reading,
Love BV xx
