I wish I was one of those girls...

...who can look chic on a flight in thin layers, leggings, ballet pumps and maybe even a Mulberry handbag. What I am, actually, is a girl who feels the need to take so much stuff on holiday that my suitcase is crammed to bursting so I have to wear jeans, trainers and a jumper (or maybe 2 jumpers, that's layering for you) so the bulky stuff isn't taking up room in my case. And don't even get me started on the handbag issue- I can't stand not having stuff to entertain me on a flight (have I talked before about having the attention span of a goldfish? If not I will soon...) so my absolute minimum travel requirements are iPhone, iPad, book, vaguely trashy mag (currently favouring Glamour and Red), and if I can get it past security my knitting/sewing. This necessitates a shoulder bag the size of a small country. I will never be a chic-on-a-plane girl.
