Buying a Chanel Bag whether you buy it in the boutique or you buy it used is an experience but it also requires strategic planning or budgeting. Each potential customer has to think about how much she wants to spend on a Chanel bag, how much she has available and how she is going to buy the bag itself. Personally – I am just a fan of buying a Chanel bag new instead of used. Why? I prefer new luxury bags because I like the idea that the bag is brand new and therefore it can be moulded & sculpted to you and your personal tastes. I also don’t like the idea of buying a used bag but you can still use my financial tips to buy a Chanel bag – just adapt it to the fact that the bag is used.

How much should I pay for my Chanel bag?

The most important thing is that you should only spend what you can afford. One of the biggest mistakes people make with luxury bags whether it is Chanel, Fendi or Louis Vuitton is that they overspend in order to buy a bag. You should not get into any debt to buy a handbag. If you are buying a Chanel bag new, you will be paying the list price that you can search online. My personal preference is Boy Bags and the new trendy releases from the brand so these tend to start at $2K+ for the smaller sizes.

Top 7 Weight Loss Tips You Need To Know

I have lost 3kg (6 lbs) in a week and I have learned a few new approaches to weight loss that I wanted to share with you if you are trying to transform or sculpt your body. Take a look at some of these weight loss tips that can be integrated without going on restrictive diets. Here are the tips

1 — Dilute soda with water

This makes your soft drinks weaker but it also gives you the sweetness you need without adding extra.

2 — Create 1,200 calorie days

1,200 calories is plenty for women and it is the amount doctors say is the minimum for women to consume. If you want to see noticeable weight loss without starving, stay between 800 to 1,200 calories per day.

3 — Weigh yourself daily

Daily weigh ins keep you accountable and stop you from bingeing at night when you know you need to weigh in.

4 — Make calorie approximations

I do this by using online calorie calculators. I don’t weigh my food at all – I like making calorie approximations and for the most part, it has worked out very well for me in terms of weight loss.

5 — Have cheat meals or cheat days

You will go insane trying to eat clean for days or weeks on end without fun meals. Incorporate these into your weight loss regime.

6 — Do cardio in the morning

It gets it out of the way and helps boost fat burning before your morning weigh in

7 — Have hot baths or showers before your daily weigh in

Heat has an effect when it comes to helping to burn fat and make your skin tight. Have a hot bath before your weigh in in the morning to see results over time with your weight loss.

Following these tips has helped me lost around 3kg per week without going crazy with exercise though I am exercising. I am super excited to see weight loss while getting ready for my next cheat day LOL.

Following these tips should get you to 3kg weight loss per week depending on your height and weight (I am 5’6).

The power of skirt suits in 2019

Skirt suits are still hot, they are still fire. I think skirt suits are popular in the Instagram generation because they make you feel elegant and stylish. I absolutely LOVE skirt suits and this is one of my favourites. I noticed that Jordy C (pictured) was wearing this skirt suit from Fashionova and I just had to share it with you. I think she has assembled this look beautifully if I am honest – the Chanel brooch is a gorgeous touch and her bag (Fendi? YSL?) looks fantastic as well. These co-ords are definitely ones to watch out for and I need to stock up on tonnes of skirt suit looks in 2019 and 2020.

Do you like skirt suits? Are they glam or too stiff? I’d love to know what you think.
