I'm a huge fan of putting together Polyvore style sets of outfits on
Photoshop- there's something so satisfying about seeing an outfit all
laid out together, not to mention the fact that you feel your wardrobe
is the entire internet. You might remember i put together some Autumn Style Outfit Suggestions last
year for Moneysupermarket's competition and it really helped me with my
Autumn style, so when i saw Travelsupermarket were doing a similar challenge i thought i'd give it a bash too!
My first thoughts for the 'Clubbing in Ibiza' outfit involved a lot of
high waisted shorts, crop tops and neon but then i suddenly realised i'm
not 17 and my 'high school girls holiday' was ridiculously almost 7
years ago. In my (slightly) more mature years, Ibiza to me is now more
about beautiful sunsets, chilled out bars and glamour than foam parties
and getting spew on your flipflops so i decided to go for this slightly
more sophisticated outfit. The pelmet skirt to me is perfect Ibiza- a
little bit of glamour with a very cool aztec pattern and light colour
pallet. I then paired it with a more sophisticated nod to the neon trend
and some on trend edgy accessories to keep it stylish and clean. Not to
be worn with face paint.
I spent a few weeks in New York and America's East Coast just before my
18th birthday and as a frequent barer, clubber and general drinker back
home at the time, i was totally gutted not to be able to experience the
real bright lights of the city that all the late 90s sitcoms had
presented to me so beautifully. It's now firmly back on my list of 'to
visits' and i'd be straight to the nearest bar. I actually hate the UK
notion of 'going for cocktails' as it's all a bit faux-girly-fun, but in
New York it's a different story. I imagine jugs of Sex on the Beach
(with a straw) swapped for sophisticated concoctions made with beautiful
spirits in the chicest of settings. This all calls for one thing- a LWD
(little white dress.) A dangerous thing in the wrong hands, ive started
to see white dresses as great chic, stylish alternatives to the
overdone LBD. I've mixed it with some bright pops of colour, classic
clean shapes and on trend accessories.
I'm probably one of the most uncomfortable people ever. I can't be doing
with sore feet, itchy cardigans and coats that make you too warm and
it's never worse than when shopping. With that in mind, i've gone for
the most comfortable of options for the London Shopping outfit. I'm far
from 'street' and im far from a Londoner but i decided to go for a
simple take on the ever cool style with basic tee and jeans paired with
this season's oversized denim jacket, Nike Blazers and chunky chain. I
also added a 'big enough for shopping but not big enough to knock people
over in Primark' bag and one of my favourite Mac Lipsticks to girly up
the more masculine outfit.
Without hesitation, 'Sightseeing in Paris' to me equalled pastels. A
trip to the romantic city just wouldn't be the same without some muted
whimsical hues. I started with the latest Joni Jean offering- the
perfect Summer vintage wash and paired it with this oversized slouchy
lace style tee for an easy and comfortable base. I then added this mint
boucle jacket which you'd never guess was from Primark because Paris
always has to involve boucle and a nod to Coco, it's also just enough of
a cover up for cooler Spring days but comfortable enough to allow you
to freely skip around the City. Flats are also a necessity
to keep comfy on the move so i opted for this gorgeous Zara pair for
yet more girly chic. Topped off with the perfect sized bag for all the
day's necessities, a statement necklace to remind everyone you're not
quite ready for pearls, nude nails and a slick of a wearable day
lipstick you're good to go.
To me Summer Holidays and in particular Thailand, has to involve some
boho glamour. This high waisted bikini is perfectly on trend and enough
to keep you feeling demure and comfy throughout the day while the Kaftan
is statement enough on its own to wear from day to night and will make
you stand out in a sea of denim shorts. Some dainty statement jewellery
gives a more chic version of those beach friendship bracelets while a
sturdy bag and shoes are practical but still on trend. All finished off
with some neon orange nails and toes to match your body paint-
obviously.
So there are my outfits! Sadly all it's done is made me want to go to
each of these places! What do you think? Will you be entering the
competition?
