Inspired by Chanel

Chanel was one of my very first fashion loves- those quilted bags! And I soon discovered some other very lovely things about the brand.

Chanel style

The pearls. Oh so ladylike with many modern interpretations.
The camellia signature. So lovely and coming in many different forms.
The fabulous range of lipsticks.
Perfect accessories from two tone shoes to scarves.
The tweeds! Very elegant, and I seem to have developed a severe weakness for pink tweed now. This fabulous book, 'Chanel: Collections and Creations by Daniele Bott, is a wonderful volume of all the things I love about Chanel. It makes for very informative reading and the photos are really beautiful. I bought my copy on holiday last year and still love pouring over the pages, I'd deffinitely recommend it to any Chanel fan.
When I grow up I'm most deffinitely going to be a Chanel girl. =]

Ahhhh I love Chanel, but I guess you knew that ha ha! I just got the crusie brochure and have been pouring over it, swoon! Chanel should come with a warning though, once you start there is no way you are going back, nothing compares with Chanel. In fact I recently aquired some new vintage Chanel I have yet to share on the blog x

I love Chanel too... I've been obsessed with those huge Chanel bags that Daul Kim (RIP) was carrying in the Chanel ads.

i'm a big fan of chanel too but at 15 i can't really afford the proper stuff so topshop and quilted chain bags are my options but of course if my mum happens to have some she won't mind me borrowing *having* it
lol
the book looks very good do you know how much it retails for?
