CHANEL BAG ALTERNATIVES

Are you looking for a classic and timeless bag to go with everything? Chanel classic flap would be ideal but not everyone can shell out thousands of pounds on that beautiful bag. However I think that Chanel bag style and class can be achieved at a smaller budget but with no compromise on style or quality. Here are some alternatives that are available now from other brands which will give you that Chanel timeless style but without the price tag. Saint Laurent Envelope Bag This bag has similar shape and style to the Chanel but has a YSL logo at the front. That will satisfy that logo cravings and the chain of the bag is also nice and chunky to add some glamour to ever look. This bag goes with literally all outfits. Saint Laurent Sunset bag Similarly, this bag has a classic look and shape and will go well with any outfits. Both of those Saint Laurent bags are well under two thousand pounds which is a nice change after Chanel prices. Gucci Small Marmont Matelasse bag Another tim...

SOHO HOUSE MEMBERS CLUB REVIEW

London Soho House is a members club that has many varied venues across London , here are some that I have been to and what I think about them, are they worth it? Soho House is meant to be a place for people who work in media and other creative professions. White City House - a massive venue in White City with restaurants and bars and a swimming pool on the rooftop. There is all you need to be entertained, concerts, shows, cabaret, restaurants ( I lived the Japanese restaurant there) and of course the famous swimming pool. Whereas the venues itself is luges , the pool area gets very crowded even on a Monday so it is a bit tricky to really enjoy it. I wish the pool was bigger. Otherwise I love the venue and the service is always super nice and helpful. Little House in Mayfair. As the name suggests it is very small and suitable for drinks after work if you happened to be in Mayfair area. They also serve food and have live piano on occasions. A small bar and restaurant are...

HOW TO START YOUR LUXURY BAG COLLECTION

If I had to start my luxury bags collection again and avoid any potential expensive mistakes, this is the guidelines I would follow. 1. Start with one classic bag that will match everything or at least most things in a neutral colour. I would recommend to start with two bags - one in black and one in nude/ beige colour. Or if just one, start with a black one. You might be tempted with all the trendy pieces in all seasonal colours but it would be a bit tricky when the trends pass and the colour becomes less fashionable or , even worse, you will discover that the colour you chose is very difficult to style with anything else you have in your wardrobe. For this reason. investing in black and beige bags you will insure that this will not happen and you will be investing your money wisely in the bag that you can wear for many seasons to come. and that you can wear the bag often achieving cost per wear. 2. The shapes or brands are also quite important while starting yo...

LONDON ESSENTIALS FOR SPRING

London is absolutely a fantastic place to be in spring but you have to be well prepared to make sure you are ready to face any kind of weather as the transition between winter and spring can be quite surprising. Here are some things you might need. 1. Umbrella. I guess that goes without saying that we need an umbrella here now matter which season. 2. Sunglasses. Sun and rain mixed together and even a bit of snow recently, all in one day, that's perfectly normal for a Londoner. Large tortoise shell sunglasses are perfect or black ones for a stronger look. 3. Trench coat. A great wardrobe essential for spring, perfect in London. The famous London brand that offers a great selection is Burberry , however if your budget is a bit less flamboyant there are many alternatives in H&M, Zara and Mango. 4. Light scarf. Temperatures can rise and drop by many degrees so a scarf is a great way to keep warm. Again an iconic Burberry scarf would be nice but there are many more alternatives to ...

ZIMMERMANN - THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND FEMININE DRESSES

For the last few years we have been admiring Zimmerman dresses and it seems they are here to stay. It seems like it is one of those brands that have bewitched us with their designs for a long time and it has also inspired other brands to create similar dresses designs. Zimmerman dresses are available in most upmarket department stores like Harrods or Selfridges but also online on many fashion retail websites like Net-a-porter , Luisaviaroma etc. Unfortunately they do not come cheap as one would expect from such a great brand and luxury. high end design. Luckily we can sometimes find Zimmerman dresses on sale and even though it is still not cheap , it helps a bit to keep it budget friendly. Outnet is one of the websites I keep an eye out when I want to find some pieces that are still trendy and in fashion but slightly cheaper. You could call it an online fashion outlet. It is a great destination for bags, shoes and dresses. While I am dreaming about Zimmerman dresses, I...

BEST PLACES TO BUY DISCOUNTED FASHION ONLINE

I love fashion and all the designer things, what I love even more is to buy them at a discounted price. Some brands have decided to reduce prices after a while on certain items, don't worry they are still making money, it's part of their marketing and financial strategy. What are the best places to buy designer clothes and bags at a discount? My number one destination is Outnet.com where you can find many mid range items but also super brands like YSL, Gucci, Valentino etc. at a slightly discounted price. It is good to check it often as the hottest items sell out in minutes. By that I mean Gucci or YSL bags or similar type of items. If they are there it's only a matter of seconds before they are gone so you have to be ready if you want to strike ! Outnet has many similar brands as Net-a-porter.com when they go on sale. It is a great site if you are looking for some gems. Another very tempting favourite , however for midrange fashion is Fashionette which is full of very in...
