Interested in high fashion....not really....I enjoy looking at it....but that is it. And yeah, I can't afford it.
Enjoy looking put together and am drawn to clothes that are simple...easy....and not bold...yes.
I watched Coco Chanel's biography last night. Amazing. What a woman. As I watched it....I thought of all the things she is responsible for...The Little Black Dress....menswear inspired clothing...costume jewelry...and introduced the thought that women should dress for themselves....not for men. She replaced corsets with pantsuits.
As time goes on....and fashions change....I think there couldn't possibly be another person who could change fashion quite like she did. If it weren't for her.....my favorite perfume in the world would not be sitting on my bathroom counter. Cristalle.
A whippersnapper. That is a word that comes to mind the more you learn about her.
Every quote I have read from her.....is just true. A brilliant artist.
"Fashion fades, only style remains the same."
"In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different."
"A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous."
There are many more. Those were just my three favorite.
Maybe one day....I could own a Chanel bag. Or maybe just a wallet.
Maybe. Hey, a girl has to wish.
why wait? i hear they have fab chanel purses on harwin street. and the #5 knock off perfume.
