I'm not going to lie, I have loved hearing about Coco Chanel from as early as I can remember! My first intro into having Chanel was receiving Chanel No 5 for my birthday then years later I bought a pair of reading glasses with the classic Cs on the frame. Of course, I saw a recent episode of Rachel Zoe where she went to Coco's apartment in Paris, if you haven't seen it, you should check out one of my favorite blogs, Fashion is Spinach which has some images of the icons apartment! Interesting enough a couple of years ago, various bloggers were invited to go to the famous Chanel store on 31, Rue Cambon to see the apartment. Since I will be going to Paris soon, you better believe that I will want to have this opportunity as well.
What do I love so much about Coco? She knew how to do classic elegance and did it well! The modern version of her classic notes can be done in the same ways that she made famous. So an update to her look which works well from running out with the girls, meetings with potentials and more can be achieved with black leggings. I'm loving the velour stirrups which can be paired with a number of items! I love this Elizabeth and James shirt as it has an edge but a lot of femininity as well! Cap it all off with some pearls - we all know this is a huge look within the world of Chanel. These sassy takes on pearls doesn't look like you simply took your grandmother's necklaces and will definitely complete your look!
Ok I have to admit, I get sucked into reality shows which is why I do try to avoid them but it gets to be too much and I either see it every time it airs OR I catch it on a marathon. Case in point, the title of this post comes from one of those shows. TV aside, 
Stumble It!
