Worldwide Wardrobe Competition || Travel Supermarket

It must have been around a month ago now when I first read about this amazing competition from Travel Supermarket and I was so excited to get to work on my entries. It's open to all fashion bloggers and all you have to do is put together an outfit with accessories for each of the five destinations: Sightseeing in Paris, Clubbing in Ibiza, Shopping in London, Cocktails in New York and Partying at a Full Moon Party in Thailand. Your outfit, including accessories, should cost under £200, and you can enter all five categories, or just one or two, whichever way you want to do it!
The winner from each category will win an incredible prize: a dream trip to the destination that their outfit was inspired by AND the £200 to buy the outfit you designed. There is one judge for each category - some of my favourite bloggers Lily (Llymlrs), Lily (WhatIHeartToday), Lexi (FashionFilth), Ella (LaPetiteAnglaise) and Emma (Milkteef).
Find out more and enter HERE - the competition ends on the 5th June.
I decided to enter three of the five categories: Sightseeing in Paris, Cocktails in New York and Partying at a Full Moon Party in Thailand.
Here are my outfits:
When I think of Paris, I always think of romance and amazing fashion. I have an A Level in French (fun fact) and I love the language and culture but I've never actually been to Paris. Visiting this beautiful city is definitely on my bucket list. I'd love a chance to see the amazing landmarks like the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame, as well as sampling the amazing food and getting to practice my French with the locals! I wanted my outfit to be pretty and feminine so I chose a floaty skirt in a pastel blue hue with a sheer polka dot blouse. I know heels aren't the smartest choice for sightseeing but I always feel so much more feminine when I'm wearing them and these tan sandals from Zara have a chunky manageable heel and will help to dress up the outfit slightly. I'm not really one to over-accessorise and I like the ladylike simplicity of this outfit so I thought a tan satchel and this pretty rose gold watch from River Island would add to the cutesy feel. I'd finish with a coat of one of my favourite nude polishes, Barry M Lychee.

I've never been to America but one day I have to go - and New York is the first place on my 'to see' list. I think of New York fashion as being effortlessly cool and chic, whilst still being on trend. For cocktails in New York I wanted to create a sexy monochrome evening look with a pop of colour and print. I think this side-split maxi skirt from River Island would be perfect for an evening in the Big Apple, and I would pair it with a simple cami and a chunky statement necklace for my go-to cocktail outfit. I am in love with ankle strap sandals at the minute and these gold metal cuffed heels from Asos are amazing. My favourite piece of this outfit though has to be the gorgeous tribal envelope clutch from Zara. It's beautiful and caught my attention straight away, I'd love showing this off in New York. Clutch in one hand, raspberry daiquiri in the other!



 Thailand is such an exotic location, it's somewhere I would love to visit with my boyfriend or friends to experience the culture, the food (Thai food is somewhat of a weakness for me) and of course, the famous Full Moon beach parties. Yellow is a colour that really makes me happy and think of Summer, so I'd pair a cute yellow bikini top with these white Zara piqué shorts and a gorgeous embroidered kimono from Topshop as a cover-up. I think the tan gladiator sandals would be stylish yet comfortable so I'd be able to party til the early hours. For accessories I'd add a yellow satchel - I love the scallop-edge detail on this Asos one, and some oversized sunnies and a statement necklace. Ready to hit the beach.


I hope you like the outfits I put together, this is actually the first time I've ever made an outfit collage and I had so much fun with it. I'm sorry that the writing has appeared a little faded in the images - I hope you can all see where the items are from!
The five bloggers I nominate to try the challenge are: Jenna, Katie, Kate, Faith and Amy!

Good luck if you enter the competition girls! I can't wait to see your entries.

  6. I need more sheer blouses/feminine blouses in my wardrobe. I also love those Asos pumps. I saw of Alexander Wangs similar too, but obviously the Asos are a much better price point!
