A family holiday wardrobe that won’t break the bank
The economic turmoil of recent years has slashed our spending in almost every part of our daily lives. Yet, British women are determined to fiercely protect one area: their holiday wardrobe. Research by home shopping experts Isme.com revealed that 85% of women over 50 planned to spend up to Ј1,500 on their holiday attire, which in many cases, could be more than the cost of the entire trip. Meanwhile, package holiday experts Thomas Cook have reported that a huge number of older travellers are expanding their horizons by visiting exotic destinations for 3 weeks or more – a decision which places an even greater strain on wardrobe budgets.
But high fashion doesn’t necessarily come with a high price tag. With a bit of intelligent forward planning, it’s easy to create a fantastic capsule wardrobe with just a few pieces. Cheap holidays provider Direct Line holidays have teamed up with Isme.com to help you do just that. The Isme competition offer gives you Ј20 off when you spend Ј40 or more, plus you’ll be entered into a prize draw for a holiday wardrobe worth Ј400.
So why not think smart this year and top up the family’s spending money whilst you’re away? Let’s a take a look at the best holiday pieces for mums, dads, boys and girls:
