Life with Mrs C

A couple of months ago I went on honeymoon for a 2 week Caribbean cruise on TUI’s Marella Discovery, including stops at St Kitts, San Juan, St Maarten and more!

Even though we sailed in February, Caribbean temperatures can still reach upwards of 28-29 degrees Celsius, with very a high UV index! With loads of beautiful beaches, towns and cities to explore, two dress to impress evenings on board and speciality restaurants we had booked, it was really difficult to narrow down my packing lists. Eventually I managed it with some outfit planning, and I thought I’d share my lists and some outfits from the trip below for inspiration:

Clothes

Dresses x 8 (including 2 evening)

Tops x 8

Shorts x 3

Skirts x 3

Playsuits x 3

Kimono x 2

Beach shirt x 1

Cover up x 1

Swimwear x 5

Shoes

Flip flops

Flat sandals

Black heels

Wedge sandals

Trainers

Other

Typically includes the obvious things like pyjamas, socks, underwear etc and then makeup, electronics and toiletries (which I will cover in another blog with some hacks we found as well!)

Just for reference, I have included some outfits of the day below! I tended to lean towards playsuits or shorts and tops for daytime, typically with a bikini, then summer dresses with heels and a thin cardigan or a skirt & top in an evening – with the exception of the dress to impress nights where I wore an evening dress instead:

I hope this helps someone with what to potentially take on a two week cruise!

If you think I’ve missed anything or there is anything in particular you like to take, let me know!
