#WORLDWIDEWARDROBE

So has anybody heard about the new #WORLDWIDEWARDROBE Competition? If you haven't take note; The competition is being held for bloggers by Travel Supermarket and it is an easy peasy way of getting a chance to win some ahhhmazing prizes!

All you need to do is create an Outfit with a Budget of £200 for each of the below Events/Locations;

-Sightseeing in Paris
-Shopping in London
-Clubbing in Ibiza
-Cocktails in New York
-Full Moon Party in Thailand

You can do all five options or just one or two, it is totally up to you! I decided to create outfits for Thailand, New York and Paris...

For my New York look I picked this super cute silk dress in a soft pink hue from Topshop Boutique. With white being a big shade of the season and the fact that its summer soon I decided to team it with White accessories in the form on elegant strappy sandals and a minimal clutch, both from River Island. Teamed with some plain silver jewellery and were on to a winner!



Sightseeing in Paris is exciting and there's much to see! That's why I chose this cute but casual mix of items. The white check dungarees are so sweet, but mixed with the Quilted Bomber and Black Flatforms creates a little bit of an edge. I added the Cobalt for a pop of one of the biggest colours this season. In addition the wrist strap makes it perfect for all the walking about! Get me to the Eiffel Tower! 



Thailand is one of the most sought after places for the party beach goer and that's why I was super excited to style this outfit. I have teamed this Lime Vest from Monki with some ole faithful denim shorts from Topshop. Paired with some tribal beauties in the form of this Zara Necklace and Topshop Backpack I am channeling my hippy vibe for the full Moon Party look. finished off with some Jellies with a slight heel, to ensure that I can be dancing all night long without feeling any pain...perfecto. 


So there you have it, 3 Outfits for 3 wonderful Places and within a budget of just £200 each. What do you think of my choices? Think you could have a go? Why not enter here and have the chance to win a trip to the place you styled your outfit for. In addition you will win £200 to buy the outfit!!

NY Highlights!

So New York is over and London has already began. There was so many highlights for me, so I decided to show you my absolute favourites, which was really difficult as I loved so much!!!

J.CREW

Womenswear Designer Tom Mora, has the difficult task of creating something new each season for the established J.Crew brand. This season we see another spin on preppy sportswear, this time mixed with Moroccan inspired patterns and sharp tailoring. The mix of texture, jewels and brocade resembled something you might see on a Marrakech market stall. Once again bowled over by J.Crew's ability to add a little spark to simple boyish silhouettes.



THE ROW

For their fourth Fall Show, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen wanted a space with a little more Character, hence they decided on a Upper East Side Apartment. Each look was layered first with a cream high neck onesie. Obviously this was a little more chic than the ones we have seen on the high street! This formed a uniform approach as each model was sent down the catwalk. Lots of black and muted tones of ivory and dark green were used on oversized tailoring and knitwear took place along side satin evening gowns. The easiness of the collection was a resemblance of past seasons collections, but with a little more glamour. Gorgeous!



VICTORIA BECKHAM

Victoria Beckham chose the New York Library as her location for her fifth anniversary collection. Coats were the first thing to hit the catwalk and oh boy were they good. Checks finished with electric blue pony skin were bang on trend and oh so chic. Knitwear made it's first appearance in the form of turtleneck sweaters in yellow and blue. Black tailoring finished of the statement VB look to perfection, while the mix of colour and texture opened a new avenue for the evolving Beckham brand.



MARC BY MARC JACOBS

70s Chic was the theme echoing down the sophisticated Marc By Marc Jacobs catwalk this Fall. Eclecticlly patterned Jumpsuits and brightly coloured tailoring was simple, but chic. MxM was as fun as always and the hair and make-up added even more to the magical effect we are so used to seeing.



3.1 PHILLIP LIM

Bikers and their Girlfriends would have loved Lim's collection this season. There was Leather, in every type of garment; Dresses, Boots, Sweatshirts and even Vests. All finished of with some incredible Outwear in the form of patchwork sheepskin coats with contrasting lapels and leather trims. The Styling of layers of texture and fabrics somehow made a rough subject chic. Perfection.
