WAG offers travel tips for girls
21 Aug 2007
Charlotte Meares, fiancee of diminutive Tottenham Hotspur striker Jermain Defoe, has teamed up with the Foreign & Commonwealth Office to launch the WAG's guide to travel.
The 22-year-old model has gained something of a reputation as a holiday addict, having travelled extensively with her footballer boyfriend.
The Foreign Office's Know Before You Go campaign singles out St Tropez, the Caribbean and Marbella as top WAG destinations this year and Ms Meares has added her unique tips for those who are looking to catch some sun.
'It might sound trivial but you never know when you might break a nail or your extensions turn green in the pool. To stay looking your best even if you are not taking a personal stylist with you, get a number of good local beauticians or check if the hotel has one before you go,' she said.
She has also told female holidaymakers to research destinations thoroughly, to ensure they know 'where you should (and shouldn't) be seen'.
When arriving in a new destination, Ms Meares claims you should 'wear something the locals would but with a unique twist - think Henna'd hands in India'.
But her travel advice is not limited to vanity, with some sage advice about staying safe on a night out.
'It's fun having a few drinks but watch out for any of your mates that are too drunk. Lots of girls end up in hospital after falling over and breaking something. The consequences could be even worse with guys taking advantage of women in that state,' she warned.
'Try and stay in pairs or threes at the end of the night. Even if your mate meets a hunk and yours looks like a skunk, stay together and say you've got a headache,' she added.
