Timeless Classics: Bags

In this blog post I shall be showing you a few contrasting classy bags from my collection hope you enjoy! 





Here is my favorite vintage bag, it is a little white box bag; with a pretty bow detail, which makes is a feminine piece. It has an extended strap and it has a hard frame which gives it it's strong durable structure. The colour perfect for summer and it is like a little Tardus; I can fit so much in there!

However I am very sorry I cannot tell you where I got it from, as I brought it from a little Spanish shop a few years back, however have a little look around any charity shops, vintage stores, car boot sales/ yard sales, etc. You an be very surprised to what you can fin for much less!





This is another favorite, especially for the winter. It has a quilted texture to in and is a dark navy colour which can complete any outfit! The vintage flowery pattern adds much needed colour and detail to the bag. Again it a bag which you can fill to the brim, for a little bag it is very durable and sturdy which is unexpected

This bag is from Jack Wills from a collection ( which for the life of me I cannot remember!) about 2 years ago, and was £9 reduced from £18 + DEAL!




Last but defiantly not least, this is a beautiful bag which reminds me of a 1920's flapper girl bag, with its stunning detail and sparkle, I love it! The colour is just me as it is neutral; so it can be paired with anything, yet it a statement in itself without the risk of it 'blending in' too much. I would wear this to a wedding, night out or any special occasion, it is just to classy

I got this beauty actually yesterday (ahh reviewing an item I have only just fallen in love with) at Accessorize, by Monsoon; it was originally £15, but was reduced to £10. How could I say no.

LookBook : Alexa Chung


She is one of my style icons because of her effortless style and support of British fashion with a refreshing modern twist. 




Alexa is wearing a beautiful tan trench coat accompanied with a striped white & navy jumper - dress, spotted black sheer tights and black round the ankle platforms. And to finish it off a mustard yellow checked scarf.



This without a doubt it my favourite dress Chung has ever worn as it is elegant yet quirky which she supports so frequently. The print on this dress is very vintage and girly, the spaghetti straps suits her delicate figure and the shoes gives the dress a fab contrast.


Picnic in the park anyone? My eyes are immediately drawn to the Chanel wicker basket bag which screams a British picnic (to me at least...). Again rocking the spotted sheer tights, shorts with a lace edge, a white blouse and a beautiful coat with ribbon detailing.
