CHANEL Cruise'15 Handbag Collection

It's 2015 and I need something great to kick things off, so why not look to one of the most iconic, classic fashion houses for my first post of the new year? Where do I turn, only Chanel and their Cruise'15 handbag collection for a little bag porn.

Cruise'15 sees a mixture of textures from denim, tweed & braided leather to metallic and fringing. With a mixture like that, there is sure to be something to suit the tastes of all Chanel fans.

The 'Boy' flap bag is featured of course and although it remains on my wish-list I have to admit I definitely prefer it in the small size, the larger sizes look too boxy for my liking. Saying that, if I was handed any size 'Boy' flap bag for free, I wouldn't say no, but when the day comes that I buy one for myself then I will be going straight for the small 'Boy' flap bag, it's much neater and practical.

Here's my picks from the Chanel Cruise'15 handbag collection -

1. Lambskin camera case.

2. Lambskin camera case.

3. Small quilted lambskin flap bag.

4. Denim & calfskin drawstring bag.

5. Iridescent calfskin & braided messenger bag.

6. Printed denim flap bag.

7. Pearl-shaped plexiglass minaudiere.

8. Denim & calfskin flap bag.

9. Tweed flap bag with chain.

10. Embroidered lambskin classic flap bag.

11. Small calfskin & tweed boy flap bag.

12. Metal moucharabieh minaudiere.

13. Small metallic lambskin boy flap bag.

14. Première watch-shaped minaudiere.

15. Braided lambskin boy flap bag.

Love That Look: Miroslava Duma

Miroslava Duma is someone who's style I enjoy following, mainly because each time you see her she always makes it different than the last time. One day you could see her wearing something quite Avant-garde but then the next time it could be a simplistic and refined outfit and usually I love the more simple of her looks, but I always salute her for being creative and bold at other times. So this brings me to my point for this post, it's Mira in one of her more simple, but still as striking looks. I love every piece individually and even more as an outfit, I especially love her bright green Chanel Lego clutch which was one of the featured items in my Spring/Summer 2013 wish-list. There is nothing more to say other than this is a really stylish look and most importantly it looks comfortable, which is always good!

Handbags - Fall/Winter 2012 Wishlist

Every season once all the collections are shown, style.com do an accessory report which previews the seasons most essential accessories that will be available from each designer. This report is something that I look forward to every season, for the main reason that I love accessories (who doesn't!?) and also because I fall in love with A LOT of the featured accessories so much that it was a massive struggle for me to make the list of handbags I'm about to show you small enough that you wouldn't get bored half way through! So here's my favourite handbags from the Fall/Winter '12 collections, all on my wishlist (along with many more not featured here!). I will be featuring some more wishlists over the next few days for shoes, jewellery etc. so stay tuned for those. P.S. This would definitely be one of my dream jobs making this report and getting to pick all of the accessories to be shown, that would be amazing!
