_Chanel is reopening its doors on Friday for Fashion's Night Out (with an intimate opening cocktail party the night before). To celebrate the launch of the boutique, Chanel has created a limited edition SOHO makeup collection available as of Friday at the new boutique. I'm very into their pop art inspired website: CHANEL SOHO 2010.

I love the 2009 movie "Coco before Chanel" directed by Anne Fontaine

starring Audrey Tatou. Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel is one of the women

whom I most admire, my blog breathes her brand.

a leopard cannot change his spots

smiling will brighten your face

laughing will enhance your eyes

falling in love will change your life

it's not our abilities that show who we truly are

it's our choices
