A-line skirts and floral prints have gone hand in hand since before the 1950s, and continue to be a hit with designers and the high street alike. This brand new Waffle skirt from design house Chloé's See diffusion line, is a great piece for Spring and Summer that's got just enough retro chic to wear anywhere.

Made in a classic and understated shape, this is a more everyday version of the classic, voluminous circle skirt made so popular amongst 1950s looks. With a bold, bright floral it's given a punchier update without veering off into the horribly modern.

When the high street shops get away with blatantly ripping off design classics it causes confusion and quite the rift of opinion. However, if you're never going to afford the original, this imitation of the original Chanel 2.55 bag from Urban Outfitters isn't a bad replacement.

Originally launched in 1955, the now ubiquitous quilted Chanel bag is as popular as ever, and of course gets ever more expensive. This Coco bag is a much more purse friendly lookalike, and has all the style hallmarks of the original, down to the distinctive strap.

It's available in both colours from Urban Outfitters UK for £52.
