I had the pleasure of attending Ladies Day at Royal Ascot this year, and, races aside, the highlight of my visit was the fashion. Men and women of all ages dressed in their finery - people's personalities clearly reflected in the most beautiful outfits. The individuality was remarkable – not once did I see the same outfit worn twice.
What I did see a lot of, however, were bags that instantly reminded me of Chanel's iconic 2.55 handbag. The quilted material, diamond pattern, foldover flap and gold buckle – similar style pieces were everywhere at the races, in a range of beautiful colours.
