Giiiiirl I don't even need to see the word 'heritage' popping up in trend guides for me to whip out the checked blazers each time Autumn comes around. I may live in London now, but this girl grew up in the countryside and so I'll always hold a candle for this preppy, 'where are my bloodhounds?' kind of styling. However, once again one of my favourite ways of adding a touch of glam to an otherwise approachable look, is by accessorising with a fabulous pair of cat eye sunglasses. My latest love? These gorgeous Valentino tortoiseshell sunglasses via Sunglasses Shop. Featuring a flattering fit and subtle logo print to the arm, they've quickly stolen my heart this season. But you know what? There are many other frames vying for the same level attention. Chloé, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Saint Laurent and Tiffany & Co. You name it, Sunglasses Shop supplies it. And the even better news? I have an exclusive 20% off discount code to share with you all, applicable to all brands available across their website! After all, sharing is caring...
Okay, so let's talk a little more about this look. For those of you who are longterm readers of A Glass Of Ice, you may recognise I often return to this style - and it's with good reason. Heritage styling is not just a trend; it's a way of life! Sure, I sound like a motivation quote feed found only on Instagram, but bear with me. It's practical, stylish, versatile and above all else, empowering. It's power dressing in its most feminine and approachable form. And that, ladies and gents, is why you can take the girl out of the countryside, but you can't take the countryside out of the girl (or more specifically, her wardrobe).
With love,
Gabrielle x

Thanks to Sunglasses Shop for working with me on this post!
Perfect Autumn look, love it! I think a checked blazer/coat is a must in autumn. I have a similar checked blazer which I'm wearing in my latest post. ♥

Chequered blazers and jackets are the best in autumn! British Heritage style has the best colour scheme ever. And it really suits you! Your bag is my favourite item from the look here though - such a classic piece! :)

That is a great fall blazer, I love plaid and checks and the bag too just love it. I am too afraid to own designer sunnies as I lose them so easily.

While I'm not sure I could pull off a blazer, I adore cat eye sunglasses. They instantly make such a difference when popping them on, don't they?

Okayyyy, colour-scheme of this outfit is everything!!! Girl, you did not have to go off this hard & look so good ;) This is now the second post I've read today that's had something to do with blazers/coats. Can I take that as a sign to splurge on the checked/plaid coat I've been eyeing for awhile?!?! Hmmmmm.... :')
