Ibiza Baby

Ibiza would not naturally be the top destination of choice for a Summer holiday and I won't make the mistake I made by not having another more relaxing location booked for after!

This review is not about seeing the beautiful sights of Ibiza Old Town but the party lifestyle which brings revelers from all over the globe including the 8 Girls from the UK and Jersey who I went with.

Packing advice:

• You don't need heels - sandals and even high top trainers all the way
• Handbag you say - NO most people are wearing the fashion faux pas of a BumBag, but this is a good move as you will need to take lots of money out with you just to buy your self a Vodka Soda Lime - I wouldn't request anything with Redbull or you bank account will dry up a lot quicker!.
• Swimsuits all the way - although you will end up with some funky tan lines.
• This is not the holiday to whip out your designer dress but to keep it casual with the like of Topshop and H & M.

The Airport 

Start off your trip in style with booking into the Aspire Lounge from Holiday Extras from just £16. You can get cream tea, nibbles and a good Gin & Tonic to settle any pre-flight nerves or just for a pre-drink and for the prices you pay for food and drink on flights these day - this is a bargain.

Top Destinations

Ushuaia - this is the perfect place to start a night out, with live music in an outdoor location, pools and acts like reenacting out UP the Disney film was definitely a winner in my eyes.

The Ocean Beach Club - This was a bit pricey but such a nice place to chill with girl friends and for Celeb spotting, we spotted some dude from Corrie - GO US! 

If you think about it the prices of a club and drinks there actually the prices even out but go for a deal so get all your drinks at the same time or you will be spending  300 euros a pop on champagne.

It's all about the nails

Time2Gossip has some Brands and colours to keep you going all summer long -

 The new HedKandi collection has five bang on trend colours to get you in the holiday / party mood. This exclusive collection has been inspired by the party capital of the world, IBIZA. So there is the flirty Beach Party, a sunny bright and intoxicating polish inspired by the world famous sunsets on Ibiza; Balearic Cool, a crystal aquamarine blue inspired by the waters of Formentera; Disco Heaven, a glittery, gold disco bomb; Ibiza Mix, a dense multi-coloured day-night sparkle; Hedonist, a no inhibition hot neon coral.

So I tried the Balearic Cool and Disco Heaven colours they are definitely getting me excited about Ibiza in July.

Balearic Cool - Bright and fun but be patient as you need several coats to create the desired effect.

Balearic Cool

Disco Heaven - You can combine this colour with any other colour (do not use it on it own, its not a good look) but combined with a darker colour like black it looks amazing.

Price £5 from Boots




O.P.I always has a fantastic range of colours.

In the new 'Vintage Minnie Mouse Collection' I Am All Ears is the perfect girly colour to show off your nails.

Individual Shades are £11 each and can be brought from - www.lenawhite.co.uk
