Stradivarius

Stradivarius is like a dream come true if you’ve come away on holiday and are already sick of your entire wardrobe after just a few nights out - which is always the way, isn’t it? A store completely packed with the season’s latest fashions (and with a sprinkling of VERY Ibiza-esque pieces) at prices that are cheaper than a round of drinks in most clubs, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t snap up at least one outfit for your next big night out!

Easy to find, located centrally on Isador Macabich (on the corner just past the taxi stand – you can’t miss it), you’ll notice the glam window displays before being enticed inside by the array of colour coordinated neatly folded stacks of shorts, jeans, tees and all other basics. Once inside, every wall and railing is draped with hundreds of frocks, tops, skirts, shirts – there’s even bikinis, bags, shoes and jewellery making it pretty much a one-stop shop.

If you wanted to compare it to anything, it’s a little like the Topshop of Ibiza – plenty of options, every trend covered and very affordable prices. Open all year round, Stradivarius is also a popular haunt for Ibiza’s winter residents – the perfect place to stock up on winter woollies (yes, it does occasionally get cold on the island) without breaking the bank.

WHAT TO BUY: If it’s a fast fashion fix you want, it’s a fast fashion find you’ll get. If you’ve forgotten to pack your sparkliest little frock, you’ll easily find a replacement here or if you’ve decided to reinvent yourself as a rock chick for the night, this is the place to style yourself.
WHEN TO SHOP: Hit Stradivarius during siesta hours between 2pm and 6pm, as it stays open while other stores roll down their shutters. You’ll have more space and time to browse, considering most other shoppers
