FAKE BAKE talks new accessory steals and going for boots… without giving up your tan!



So, a couple of weeks ago on the Blog we looked at all-new designer accessories. And oh, how we heart Dior. And Chanel. And repeat into infinity. Since then, we have been checking out Fashion Week heaven,  and it seems we are at one with the style universe here at Team Fake Bake. Yes, we want to wear new season finds. Agreed, that boots were made for walking. However, we love the fact that we can wear the lot and still get our tanned legs out.

IOHO (in our humble opinions, natch) we always agree that Milan is the place for off-duty glam. New York may be on point, London is about street-chic and Paris is couture glory, but it’s to Italy we turn for that ultra out-there, no-holds-barred fabulousness. So here are a few our street-inspired favourite looks from the hub of Italian glamour….


On the catwalk we have fallen for these accessory looks by Versace…..









And Moschino…


And Fendi….

And if you put the vibe together you get Kaia Gerber at her recent 18th Birthday bash. OK, so she’s super tall and thin, but you know, JLo took to the Versace catwalk and broke every model rule, and literally stole that limelight. A great shoe is a great look is a killer appearance, whatever your age, or shape or attitude.

However, as much as we love to daydream, we are also not quite at the Milan Fashion Week stage in our budgeting lives. Plus, we try not to ruin our global imprints by getting on private jets too often. Instead we are taking inspo from Milan and also our own designer picks, and then going to the place we love more than any other: the Great British High Street, which includes on-line as well as in store.

Here goes…

Swap our Dior pick for these great Pretty Little Thing black chunky lace up boots….

Change those statement Emilia Wickstead super earrings for these Zara belters….


Style swap that Dior saddle for this little black Missy Empire classic…


Go from Chanel transparent lens beauties to these steals from Kimorn at Amazon


Never mind that new Burberry clutch, River Island have got it covered….


And finally, exchange that new Chanel monochrome beret for this little Asos beauty….


Of course, whatever accessories get bumped up your list, the age of the boot is upon us, and with that comes the boot-and-beautiful -an combo, which is not always easy to achieve when you go out in a sweater and want to swap if for a bikini - yep, it’s the weird early autumn weather stage. We are taking our lead from the Milan muses, and going flawless and darker, with our Fake Bake Flawless Darker (did you see what we did there?) Not only is it super-easy to apply, it literally spritizes on exfoliated skin before bed, and you wake up with gorgeously glowing and tanned skin. Which you don’t have to go to Italy for.

In our dreams we are praying for a trip to Tamara Mellon….

But our reality means we’ll be off to Zara, who always get well stocked with killer heels and boots at the change of seasons, and stocking up on our Fake Bake Oil Free Mistifier to keep our newly tanned legs fresh and moisturised after a long hot summer.

Then we are off to live our best lives not on a Gulfstream G500 but on the bus. Come on, it’s 2019 people. Mr. Attenborough would be very proud, we hope.
