Today we're extremely excited to launch our latest competition with Next. We're giving one of our lucky readers the chance to win an outfit up to the value of £200!
To be in with the chance of winning this amazing prize, all you need to do is create a Mother's Day inspired blog post and share the link with us in a comment below. In your post you need to feature a Next outfit you'd dress your mum (or mother figure) in for a day out on Mother's Day. To give you an example, here is an outfit I created:
Blue Floral Dress / Neutral Jacket / Square Toe Court Shoes / Neutral Cut-Out Strap Watch / Nude Expander Bracelet / Dragonfly Drop Earrings / Gold Frame Clutch
Since my mum is a bit of a Next-a-holic, choosing an outfit to suit her was pretty easy. I headed straight for their dresses where I spotted this flattering floral dress which I think is a great statement piece and perfect for spring. Next have such a wide selection of jackets but I love the subtle neon pop on this one and it's a must for my mum who always covers the tops of her arms. I'm a big fan of square toe shoes so I picked these nude ones which she could wear again with almost anything. I kept my jewellery choices quite simple because she isn't a big bling lover but I think she'd look great wearing this pretty cut-out watch and stone bracelet combo. Finally I added these adorable dragonfly earrings (she loves nature) and since we both love statement bags, I picked this glittery clutch to take her look from day to evening! If money was no object, I'd whisk her away to London for some afternoon tea and then an evening meal followed by a show.
