This girl has a different best friend

They say that "diamonds are a girl's best friend".
I contest!
If we're talking in materialistic terms, my best friend is rougher, tougher and classier than yours...
That is, if you don't share my undying infatuation with Coco Chanel's gift to (wo)man-The 2.55 Bag.
Arguably, there is no fashion item that is more synonymous with timeless glamour. It has withstood the decades to remain perpetually coveted by fashionistas the world over. Those smooth curves, shiny hardware, and lucious quliting... What I would give just to touch one. I think what makes it so remarkable is that it manages to be astoundingly beautiful, without having an air of pretention.



Wipe that drool up, stat!

(I know, I know, two Chanel related posts in a row. Fabulous.)

Chanel amore

Although I have 4 or so entries I still need to write up, I had to post these beautiful pictures of Lily Allen- as a Chanel ambassador. Lucky, lucky girl! She looks absolutely gorgeous as a modern, leather-clad Audrey Hepburn figure. She really sells it, doesn't she?

Mr Karl Lagerfeld (bless him!) personally hired her for the job, and photographed the shoot himself. The shoot is for a new line of uppity sportswear collection of nylon bags which will retail from $1800. I have to say, not a big fan at all of the bags. I would much prefer a 2.55 bag. Well, it is my dream bag!
