travelling light - packing HELP!

Okay, so basically at the end of next month I'm going away for 9 days to spain. I'm flying with ryan air and I know they can be annoying with luggage. I'm only taking a carry on suitcase and a small bag and being a girl, I take a lot of stuff - but I know to ration things. Is there any tips you could give me on what to and what not to take, how to pack light that sort of thing would be good.
Also do they weigh your bag? I'm worried if I go over a 'limit' ill get charged!

I've never had my bag weighed when i've flown with ryanair. As for light packing check the weather forecast before packing, go for things which you know all match together and ideally plan an outfit for each day and take only one or two pairs of shoes which match with everything.

Oh thank god, that's reassuring!:smile:
Buy some of those vacuum bags. They save so much space.
