As soon as you land on Christine Reehorst's renowned fashion blog you know that you are in for a treat. The aesthetic is stylish, fresh and modern. The home page is a host of beautifully lit images and much of the content is image driven too. If you love flicking through exquisite visuals then this site will delight you.
Under the category Christine, this talented blogger and photographer creates wonderful montages that offer us an insight into her life. They are presented as monthly moodboards, offering us style inspiration as well as insights into her lifestyle, travelling and even some chic home décor solutions.
The fashion/style section reveals fashion highlights such as NYFW & LFW Fall 2016. It's a great way to stay on top of the latest collections and to keep up-to-date with the hottst trends. Again, these posts are image driven but Christine adds a few succinct lines of text after the main pictures. If you want something a little more practical then the shopping pieces are perfection. They are just as stunning to look at but offer you realistic style solutions. Posts such as '15 Wedding Guest Dresses' are the ideal place to delve around and find affordable yet stylish solutions to any wardrobe dilemmas.
The travel section takes on a photo diary format (staying true to the image focused vibe of the rest of the site). This format works beautifully and really transports you to a place. Christine chooses pictures that complement one another yet offer a full picture of a destination. This is some seriously stylish photography and would give even the most travel-weary homebody itchy feet. The miscellaneous section covers everything from book giveaways to insights into ELO's Jeff Lynne to a behind the scenes glimpse of Cannes Film Festival.
One of the highlights of the site is the shop. It provides a chic tapestry of all her favourite products and simply by clicking on each image you find yourself on the right site to buy that item. From Nars Pure Sheer SPF Lip Treatment to FRENDS Layla Gunmetal Headphones. It's a beautiful collage of sleek monochromes, classic neutrals, subtle rose gold accents, careful accessorising, comfortable yet chic footwear and understated beauty products.
Christine's look is chic, urban and modern. It's all about clean lines, classic styling and a neutral palette that is beautifully wearable. It's about natural beauty, flawless make-up and accessible fashion that is practical yet achingly chic. Here is how to inject a little Fash N Chips magic into your own wardrobe:
The Beanie
Beanies are great for hiding bed hair, keeping you warm and adding a nice casual slant to any outfit. Christine is a fan of a simple black ribbed beanie. To really evoke her look you want something that looks simple but is beautifully luxurious and sumptuous, our Black Cashmere Beanie Hat is made in Scotland from the finest cashmere. Make like Christine by wearing yours with this season's trench coat in black wool. Christine likes to add texture and interest by adding a patterned scarf to this look, our Tartan and Check Double Faced Cashmere Scarf.
The Fedora
Fedoras are deliciously versatile and are ideal for both casual and more formal occasions. Christine looks flawless when wearing hers alongside an oversized olive green overcoat, sunglasses, cropped jeans and leather pumps. We have a lovely range of high-quality fedoras but our Harlequin Black Wool Felt Fedora is perfect for this look.
The Shoulder Bag
This is an iconic Christine Reehorst look. There is a timeless simplicity to the brass-buttoned black trench coat, black ankle boots, sunglasses, beanie and shoulder bag combination. This look is versatile, wearable but undeniably chic. Our Black Lacquer Deerskin Shoulder Bag is practical, stylish, unique and versatile.
Black Lacquer Deerskin Mini Cross Body Bag
