Travel Supermarket are running a styling competition called Worldwide Wardrobe where us as bloggers are challenged to style up five outfits that each come in at under £200. There are five locations that each outfit has to be set to: clubbing in Ibiza, sightseeing in Paris, shopping in London, Full Moon party in Thailand and cocktails in New York.
The prize of the competition is a paid trip to the city plus £200 to buy the outfit you have styled. If you want to enter, then head on over here.
Here are my entries:
I've never been to Ibiza, but after visiting Magaluf last year I assume their nightlifes are somewhat similar. I went for a bright outfit with a multicoloured crop top and a bag that clashes with a similar print and colour scheme. Heels are an absolute no-no for the clubs, especially if you're walking from bar to bar at god knows what time so instead I chose some red sandals from Topshop, they match with the red colours in the top and would be comfortable for plenty of dancing. For the bottom half, I've chosen the ever-popular disco pant style shorts. Perfect for Ibiza to show off them lovely tanned legs. And of course, no Ibizan outfit would be complete without a bracelet that simply picks up yet more colour from the rest of the outfit to emphasise the bright, loud colours.
Sightseeing in Paris sounds like an absolute dream, right? The outfit I chose was a classic monochrome look with a cream draping jacket on top of a plain midi dress. To brighten the outfit up, I included a tomato red bag from Topshop - perfect for attention grabbing! I swapped heels for flat sandals from Zara, nobody wants to be tottering around collecting blisters while checking out the sights of Paris, it's better to be comfortable and enjoy what time you have there. For the finishing touches of the outfit I have a mixed metal necklace from Miss Selfridge and a chunky ring from H&M to add some accessories to the look.
Everybody goes to London to shop, it probably has every single store you could ever want. For a successful day of shopping you need to wear something easy incase you need to pop into the changing rooms, I went for the classic Leigh Topshop jeans, and a brightly colours peplum top. The rest of the outfit I kept plain and simple as to not clash with the multicoloured top. I also chose a pair of trusty Topshop boots with stud detailing to 'toughen' up the girly outfit a little bit. The Zara bag is roomy enough to carry everything you may possibly need, and more. Important for a full day out!
A Full Moon party in Thailand, actually sounds amazing. The outfit I chose doesn't create too much fuss and wasn't too expensive as it's likely to get stained with neon body paint and wet and sandy on the beach. The top is an oversized top which can be worn off one shoulder, or if you're feeling a little creative the neckline can easily be cut off to make it just a little more baggy. Underneath I picked a bright blue bikini to poke out through the top and on the bottom half is some bright pink, denim hot pants. The clutch bag is my favourite, and keeping with the neon theme is a bright orange. Perfect for storing little necessities such as keys and a bit of money. The shoes are some t-bar sandals from Miss Selfridge to protect your tootsies from anything sharp (or alive) lurking in the sand.
Cocktails in New York, yeah, if only! A bright red midi dress with a plain black outfit was my idea of smart but standy-outyy and perfect for city life. The dress also has a cutout midriff, not what you'd expect but who likes to stick to expectations these days? The Zara clutch bag comes with an attached bracelet, perfect for a little bit of extra security in a busy bar or street. The sandals I chose are classic, but simple and don't distract any attention from the dress that does all the talking. Over the top of the dress is a draping black leather jacket with excess material at the front that hangs nicely.
