With Love, Coco Chanel.

 I have been meaning to blog about this for a long time....@last i did it :-)
The following are not just quotes of coco Chanel , but essential principles by which every girl/women should judge/dress herself by.
Born as Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel ,she changed very name coz of obvious reason ( of being not her style ) to COCO CHANEL.
Elegant and Eccentric maybe among the many words that describes this fashion legend.Having ruled the fashion industry for over a decade, her style/name still remains a icon.





Elegance does not consist in putting on a new dress.




Fashion passes, style remains.



“Look for the woman in the dress. If there is no woman, there is no dress.”




Nature gives you the face you have at twenty. Life shapes the face you have at thirty. But at fifty you get the face you deserve.




Those who create are rare; those who cannot are numerous. Therefore, the latter are stronger.
Elegance does not consist in putting on a new dress.








                                      Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury.


                  Innovation! One cannot be forever innovating. I want to create classics.




Elegance is not the prerogative of those who have just escaped from adolescence, but of those who have already taken possession of their future.









                          In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.
