Check Mate!
Fashion is for everybody, but designer is not! The High Street provides affordable clothing that often looks exactly like the brands we desire without the price tag, and needing to go into your emergency funds. This season is about an old favourite the Check trend’.
Following seasonal trends can be so expensive, we all know what we want and the High Street can be a cheaper alternative for us all to still look stylish but on a budget.
Empowerment of self is something we can portray through our clothing, we can embrace our bodies through creating glorious shapes in our clothes. Regardless of our shape weight, shape or age we can still look flawless by following Autumn’s new memo!
A great coat can make us feel powerful, confident, trendy, modern and elegant. As the mornings get colder and the evenings get darker this coat one of the first that I will feature this season, fits all of the above!
I didn’t want to return to my blog with an expensive statement piece unsubstainable for all… I wanted to show you guys how the High Street can provide you with a key look at a great price. Whether you pair it with a large tote bag or a red clutch for an evening night, this look will have you slaying all season.
