Vintage Chanel

Since the 20th Century, Chanel has stood for luxury and feminie tailoring. As famous for its outerwear as its interlocking C's, Chanel's timeless tweed blazer has been worn by women through the decades. In the 90's it was Hillary Banks: matching tweed skirt suit, wedding hat and driving gloves. This season, it's less rich kid and more mashup with a host of celebs mixing delicate blazers with prints and tough fabrics, swapping the token pastel shades with dark tweeds. Mix the ultra-feminine blazer with unlikely pairings like denim to channel casual Chanel...


With lots of great interpretations on the high street, there's no need to worry about the authentic price tag. Here's some of my top finds:
