Keeping things super simple in black and white today.All pieces today are from Chanel  but they have such distinct feels. The black coat from Chanel is made of crushed silk and has a bustle which makes it supremely elegant. However the Chanel bathing suit is made of silk lace and can be dressed up or down. I have teamed both together with the Chanel shoes to give the whole look an edgy feel. Can these two Chanel pieces be any more perfect for each other? I love the unexpected pairings and the impact each piece brings to the total look. Chanel makes the cutes pieces that are too hard to pass up! A modern girl sometimes needs more that the bascis. And this is the Chanel appeal. Chanel is cool in the way that people who do not care about being cool ultimately come to define the very thing itself.
