Who can predict right now if new Chanel Fall/Winter 2009/2010 Collection is on the right track or not? Have you seen who is the new face of Chanel? It is Lily Allen of all the prospective models.

The new collection of sportswear bags and accessories is on the way to stores around you. The name chosen for the collection is “Coco Cocoon”. It is very thoughtful and certainly an eye catching name for the collection but what about the model chosen for this ad campaign? Do you think it would be a HIT or a BIG No-No? People Magazine displayed the images and has some intro to the collection.

CHANEL 2009 Fall Collection – Vote “heads up” or “thumbs down”?

This is something out of the ordinary from Karl this year! I am not sure if he is experimenting to see if people are going to love it or hate it but the collection is definitely not done in a CHANEL classic style that we all know it to be. Do you think new CHANEL Fall Collection 2009 is "heads up" or "thumbs down"?


Do we like the fish tails, extensions for skirts with unproportional three layer dresses or do we still like the classic suit with the button down jackets and knee length skirts made out of the thick colorful tweed material with logo CC on the buttons?

I haven't even mentioned anything about the accessories but they are definitely a MUST SEE & believe the plastic case for your CHANEL 255 classic handbag (called after Coco Chanel first designed it in February 1955). Lets just say I am not ready to put up my Classic on the wall as a picture in the frame. Thoughts please?

Who is your Favorite Celebrity Style Icon?

I believe each one of us have a celebrity or an icon that we look up to for their personal style. We tend to follow their lives through TV appearances, celebrity magazines, even try to copy the looks by dressing up like them. To list a few of my Icons:

- Coco Chanel - for her extraordinary sense of fashion, creativity & style

- Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis - for her classic, humble & always positive approach to the fashion world

- Lady Carla Bruni-Sarkozy - for her ability to jump from the world of being a model into the world of first lady of France with the elegant sense of fashion
