The Check Blazer Trend & How To Style It

Call it the Prince of Wales print, plaid or check, this is one heck of a trend that isn't going anywhere anytime soon! Hot since September when NYFW was well under way, this trend was and will continue to be spotted everywhere. Alongside the other trends I mentioned in my latest post called "3 Trends to Wear Now and Right Through the Fall Season", the check print isn't exactly breaking any grounds, but it is a fun way to try a more masculine print otherwise left for our dads and grandpas. Check blazers and coats are particularly popular, selling out from left and right and I know this because I was after one myself. From budget-friendly options from Zara to splurge options from high-end designers, this is the stuff that fashion girls are actually going to be wearing this season, and not just another trend we saw on the runway.

S/S 2016 Trends: Chanel Two-Tone Inspired Sling-Backs

I've talked about owning a Chanel bag on the blog before (read here) and according to a new study from Baghunter, an authentic bag currently makes a better investment than real state. We all know how expensive they are, but what people don't realise is that their value has increased more than 70% since 2010, and is set to continue on this up rise. Considering getting on the house ladder in London is extremely difficult don't mind if I do get me a new bag! Now I have the perfect excuse, am I right?! And whilst I am at it, I might as well get me a pair of Chanel Sling-Backs because have you seen how popular they've been this summer?
