Karl Largerfeld is bringing Chanel to Edinburgh

Exciting news Karl Largerfeld is bringing Chanel to Edinburgh this year. The location is being kept under wrap at present, so we are left guessing where it might be held, but we are certain that Lagerfeld has chosen a grand venue with beautiful Scottish characteristics. I think that Edinburgh will provide an amazing backdrop to his show and fashion collection. 

All we know at the moment is that it will take place on the 4th December outside Edinburgh.  

In the past the spectacular shows have been held New York Tokyo, Paris, London, Bombay and it will now put Edinburgh on the Fashion map.

Cycle Chic

Cold weather doesn't mean that your style has to suffer, just look to Scandinavia. In Denmark girls wear the same clothes when they cycle and still manage to look stylish even in the cold weather. The girls have winter clothes that looks stylish both on foot and two wheels. Their look is chic and fashionable, yet practical.

Perhaps leave it to the Danes to cycle in heels.
