Chanel your love

After reviewing the Chanel R-T-W collection Spring/Summer 2011 I thought, how does a girl with a part-time job and a university loan (legally!) get their hands on a vintage Chanel Bag? The ways I came up with are:

1) Win the lottery
2) Your best friend/significant other/close family member wins the lottery.
3)Win one in a competition.

and to be honest, I don't like those odds! so I thought, how does a smart girl with a part time job get a Chanel Handbag? and I came up with either:

1) saving and saving for years on end
2) not getting one but getting one which looks exactly the same instead. Clever eh?

My quick guide shows you where to get those copy cat designs.

and then it occured to be that rather than my fiance-to-be get me an expensive engagement ring, that I would rather have a cheap one and a real vintage Chanel Handbag. Now that is true love!

Wedges and Ketchup

As my nearest and dearest will know, lately I have been looking for (and obssesing over) finding myself a pair of black wedge heels. Totally wearable, they'll go with anything and they won't make your feet hurt after a night out. Sounds good eh? Easy to find? not quite! but after much searching I found this pair from New Look for £24.99.

But the real 'Ketchup' of the story is, much like a LBD, they go with anything and everything! What do you think of these outfits?

ahhhhh, what a bargain! :) This is one happy shopper! May the rest of the year follow with lots of fashion finds.
