Money Supermarket Passion for Fashion Competition Entry

Necklace - Asos

The inspiration behind this look is from the festival season of the year! However, I went with the a warmer approach to the festival look as, let's face it, we are in England! Even though this could be worn for a festival it could be worn when walking your dog, at a BBQ or just going on a general walk. I went with the baggy top instead of a fitted top more for comfort whilst at a festival and it can be worn tucked into the shorts or just left loose too! The necklace is from the Asos sale. 
 Dress - Motel @ Ark
Clutch - Internacionale
Shoes - Jeffrey Campbell @ Office 
Nail Polish - Models Own 


For the party outfit, I went for a bold statement dress with plain and simple accessories. I love how this dress was originally £30 but in the Ark sale it was reduced down to just £11(!!!!) which is great value for a dress from Motel which are really great quality. I chose a bright nail polish that went with some of the colour in the dress to compliment the dress and to stand out when holding the plain black clutch bag. With the price of the dress, clutch and nail polish being very small, I decided to go for a statement shoe and where better to go than to Jeffrey Campbell! The huge silver claw up the back of the heel is massively on trend for autumn/winter as well 

Boots - Office 
Nail Polish - Models Own 


With this outfit, I went with a more simple approach inspired by the recent trend of studs and dark colours that are taking over the high street ready for autumn/winter! Even though none of these things have saved any money as they are not sales, the boots from Office a great dupe of the Chloe studded ankle boots which have a MASSIVE price tag of £850 so if you can't find yourself able to justify that massive amount of money for some shoes, these are a great, much more affordable dupe to them. 

Rings - H&M 

When choosing this, I decided to go for a more casual first date choice as if you were going to the cinema or bowling maybe! During autumn/winter, leather seems to be on trend so I went with the leather jeggings to match this, but if you're like me and don't like wearing fully neutral colours, I chose this gorgeous messenger bag from Zara to bring a pop of colour to the outfit! The rings from H&M are a great bargain for 3 rings, averaging at just under a £1 per ring. 


Jumper - H&M
Skirt - Miss Selfridge
Heels - River Island
Collar - Topshop 
Watch - Asos
Lipstick - Topshop


Every highstreet store you visit, you always see midi/tube/pencil skirts so I thought this would be a great style to choose for the office look for the competition. Another popular style at the moment is the collar! They are all over the highstreet and even celebrities such as Rita Ora and Pixie Lott are embracing this trend too. With being in England, a jumper like this with an added collar is a great look for work to keep you warm yet looking professional. The gold boyfriend watch from Asos is a good dupe for the ever popular Michael Kors watches that i'm sure everyone is lusting after, just like me, but with a price range of £175 and above, not everybody can afford them, also just like me! So the Asos watch is a great way to embody Michael Kors without forking out the money for the real deal.
