Ironing is one of those household chores that many of us dread. It's time-consuming, tricky, and frustrating, not to mention the hassle of setting up your ironing board, constantly refilling your iron, and the constant worry about accidentally burning your clothes. However, there are definitely moments when I put something on and think how much better it would look if it was freshly ironed and crisp, especially when travelling.
So, I decided to give the Philips 3000 Series Handheld Steamer, available here for £31.66 here (was £37.99), a try to see if it could offer me the best of both worlds crisp looking clothes without the need to wrestle with an ironing board. We all know the struggle of unzipping your suitcase at the hotel only to find that several hours packed into a small space (especially for a chronic over-packer like myself) has left your clothes looking a bit sad and crumpled. A compact handheld steamer like the Philips one is therefore a great addition to your suitcase, as it takes up minimal space while allowing you to freshen up your clothes before dinner.
It even folds up into a very neat little bundle that I can fit in one hand, making it a very reasonable size that would even fit into hand luggage or an overnight bag. It's also super quick and easy to use, and is ready to go in minutes, reports the Mirror. All you need to do is unfold the handle, then remove the water tank and fill it up with water before snapping it back onto the end.

When it comes to summertime accessories, many of us spent our childhood wearing some form of colourful beaded necklace picked up from a local seaside shop on holiday.

Instead of just the more minimalist gold or silver chains, beaded necklaces serve as a subtle colour splash to your breezy summer outfits.
