Very World Cup Fashion Face-Off - Who says that you can’t be interested in fashion AND football? Definitely not me – I’ll be cheering on all my favourite teams this World Cup but that doesn’t mean that I can’t look good doing it!
Luckily, I’m not the only one who has this mindset and the lovely folks over at Very.co.uk have had the brilliant idea of mixing the footballing world with the fashion one, and there’s not a WAG in sight.
The fashion site is currently having a Very World Cup fashion face-off and they have put together a fashion look for each country playing in the World Cup that best reflects their personality and national style. The countries are then pitted against each other in the style stakes and will battle in out in the quarter finals, semi finals and then the top two will fight it out to take the crown of most stylish World Cup country.
England are already through to the quarter finals and you can help to decide who will join them by voting in the fashion face-off between Brazil and Korea. Brazil have a super sexy Latin feel to their look with plenty of tropical touches and gorgeous colourful dresses, whilst Korea is represented by a strong military style with plenty of army colours, strong bold accessories and some girly touches to bring it up to date.
If you want to check out the World Cup countries styles then head over to Very.co.uk to vote for your favourite style and see if you can get them through to the next round where they’ll be joining the quarter finalist so far – England, who have a festival chic look (very Kate Moss) and World Cup hosts South Africa who have a fab look including loads of animal prints in a sophisticated safari look!'
