Chanel Resort 2010 Ad
In my life I’ve always prided myself on marching to the beat of my own drum. Setting myself apart from the crowd is what made me go into wardrobe styling in the first place. Yet, there is one title I don’t mind sharing with the majority of the fashion community, Chanel enthusiast. Since its creation in the early 1900′s the house of Chanel has had a following like no other. This season’s resort collection is full of timeless elegance that testifies why the brand has been a leader for so long.

If your wallet, or husband, won’t allow you to fill your luggage with Chanel’s latest resort collection, you’re in the right place. I have been mad for this collection since it’s preview last spring. Although I am plotting to get a new bag for my upcoming birthday (I hope the right person is reading this 
) the ready to wear collection is a bit beyond my means. Fear not. I have a plan. I always have a plan, think of me as your Zack Morris of fashion! I have searched retailers far and wide and below are a few styles that can give you that luxurious Chanel style on a more modest budget.

Double Sided Vest www.BananaRepublic.com
So I hit up Photoshop to show how simple it will be to put your own spin on this iconic look.
1. Striped Tank- T by Alexander Wang- www.alexanderwang.com

3. Adreana Wedge by Jessica Simpson- www.bakers.com
4. Chanel tote bag- www.Chanel.com
5. Anchor Charm Necklace- www.forver21.com
Oh and that birthday present I was hinting at… This is me being subtle
Small Patent Calfskin Shopper
I have yet to find eccentric shoes like the ones paired with the catwalk looks. I will be sure to post something if I find a worthy equal.
So, if you are in the midst of packing I hope this nautical palette inspires you.
If a trip isn’t in the near future, keep these styles handy as resort is a great pre-requisite for spring!
Ciao for now,
Tiffany
