Costume jewelry is not made to give women an aura of wealth,
but to make them beautiful. Coco Chanel (Cera, pg. 178)

Gabrielle Bonheur Chanel – Coco Chanel – was born in France in 1883. With her enormous talent she created a fashion empire which encompassed clothing, jewelry, and perfumes. Coco Chanel’s fashion legacy managed to free and empower women throughout the world with this unique style.

Luxury is not the opposite of poverty, it is the opposite of vulgarity.

Coco Chanel (Mauries, pg. 48)

Being a great fashion designer she created her chanel jewelry in pure contrast with the simplicity of her designed clothes. Therefore her jewelry is bold an theatrical, embracing the primitive and barbaric in her accessories. With such complex pieces and tidy clothing she created a look so womanly and sophisticated that it has never gone out of fashion since she first imagined it more than 90 years ago.

Her approach to jewelry design was very similar to the clothing creation. She will not sketch nor draw but compose on the model’s body her art pieces. In her studio she kept pieces of flexible modeling plastic which she shaped into jewelry, embedding real and fake gemstones into the plastic as she worked, moving them around to get exactly the color combinations and balance she desired.

Using a lot of custom jewelry, Chanel draped herself and her models in ropes of faux (fake) pearls and gold tone chains. Her early experiences of poverty had made her an expert at making do and using odds and ends creatively. The Paris activity expanded into a house of couture and she was no longer dependent on Boy Capel’s generosity (her lover).

Chanel was the first fashion designer to use costume jewelry to create the finishing touch to her overall look. Although the jewelry trend of Art Deco set by Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpelswas was a hit, Chanel, however, developed her own style. She proposed the use of brightly colored fruit salad glass stones meant to imitate the carved precious and semi-precious gemstones. As always, her approach was innovative and unique.

The 1923 introduction of her trademark perfume, Chanel No. 5, cemented her fortune and her supremacy in the field of fashion. As for her attitude twards jewelry she always said:

A woman should mix fake and real.
To ask a woman to wear real jewelry only
is like asking her to cover herself with real
flowers instead of flowery silk prints.
She’d look faded in a few hours.
I love fakes because I find such jewelry provocative,
and I find it disgraceful to walk around with millions
around your neck just because you’re rich.
The point of jewelry isn’t to make a woman look rich
but to adorn her; not the same thing. 

In 1971, at the age of 88, Chanel died in her beloved Paris. She was still working and designing until the very end. Friends joked that it was no coincidence that she passed away on a Sunday, since that was the only day that the salon was closed, so it was the only day she had time to do it

A funky tiara? What happened to our sweet, slightly geeky Dakota Fanning? The teen star stepped out in a less-than-polished but age-appropriate ensemble accented by a chic black Balenciaga handbag. At least she got the purse right! Do you dig Dakota’s new look, or does she need to run to CVS for some new panythose, pronto? Balenciaga Covered Giant Day Handbag You will end up liking this Balenciaga Covered Giant Day bagmore than most people you know. The texture and color variety of the lambskin is rich and supple, not to mention that it will only look more fabulous the longer you rock it. The color shown here is storm, which we love for its cool appeal, but if you fancy something flashier there are seven other colors to choose from. The contrast of the delicate cutout stitching against the size and square shape of the bag is an excellent detail; and the leather-covered hardware give creates some visual interest without competing with the sumptuous  lambskin.  The braided handle is yet another charming element and with an 8 inch drop the purse will hang comfortably from your shoulder or off your arm. Buy this purse at Balenciaga for $1,445. 2009 Balenciaga Multicolor Bag 084324A - Black 2009 Balenciaga handbag Multicolor Bag 084324A - Black City Woven Black Leather 084332-2 Multicolor woven soft vintage crafted lambskin • aged... $228.00 Add:  2009 Balenciaga Multicolor Bag 084324A - gray 2009 Balenciaga handbag Multicolor Bag 084324A - gray Multicolor woven soft vintage crafted lambskin • aged brass hardware • top zip... $228.00 Add:  2009 Balenciaga Multicolor Bag 084324A - ivory white 2009 Balenciaga handbag Multicolor Bag 084324A - ivory white City Woven Cream Leather 084332-2 Multicolor woven soft vintage crafted lambskin •... $228.00 Add:  2009 Balenciaga Multicolor Bag 084324A - Pink 2009 Balenciaga handbag Multicolor Bag 084324A - Pink Multicolor woven soft vintage crafted lambskin • aged brass hardware • top zip... $228.00 Add:  2009 Balenciaga Multicolor Bag 084324A - Purple 2009 Balenciaga handbag Multicolor Bag 084324A - Purple Multicolor woven soft vintage crafted lambskin • aged brass hardware • top zip... $228.00 Add:  Balenciaga City Woven Handbag 115748D9Q3 Balenciaga City Woven Handbag 115748D9Q3 Multicolor woven soft vintage crafted lambskin • aged brass hardware • top zip closure • hand... $198.00 Add:  Balenciaga Crocodile bag - 207866A Black Balenciaga Crocodile bag 207866A Black Top grade, 100% mirror image genuine leather SIZE:W39.5XH29.5XD19 cm (1cm=0.394 inch) Made of original... $216.00 Add:  Balenciaga Crocodile bag 207866A Coffee Balenciaga Crocodile bag 207866A Coffee Top grade, 100% mirror image genuine leather SIZE:W39.5XH29.5XD19 cm (1cm=0.394 inch) Made of original... $216.00 Add:  Balenciaga First Woven Handbag 103208D94Q3 Balenciaga First Woven Handbag 103208D94Q3 Multi color woven soft vintage crafted lambskin • aged brass hardware • top zip closure •... $198.00 Add:  Balenciaga Giant City Handbag 173084D941G Soft vintage crafted lambskin • gold plated metal hardware • top zip closure • hand stitched handles 4.3'' drop • removable...

The renowned “glam girl” has been spotted on more than one occasion toting one of her several exquisite Hermes Tricolor Kelly handbags. You may not agree with every choice this controversial socialite makes, but I think we can all agree she does a great job of picking the perfect Kelly bag to complement her ensemble. Victoria isn’t the only celebrity with a weakness for this timelessHermes style. In fact, it was when the iconic actress Grace Kelly was spotted carrying the bag in 1956 that the house changed its name from the original “Sac à dépêches” to its current label. In the ensuing years, dozens of other celebrities jumped on the Kelly bandwagon, snatching up different colors and variations of the bag. One of the world’s most famous designer handbags, the Kelly has been featured in several high-profile movies and television shows. First introduced in 1935, this classic Hermes handbag lives up to the house’s rigorous standards of quality, longevity, and design. Available in five different sizes, the Kelly bag can be ordered in supple leather, richly textured crocodile or alligator, or exotic ostrich skin. Precious metals are used to make the gleaming hardware, ensuring decades of durability. Each authentic Kelly is meticulously hand-sewn by master craftsmen to ensure decades of worry-free beauty and reliability. Because of the rarity of the materials and the painstaking craftsmanship techniques, one Kelly bag can take up to 24 hours of manual labor to create. To get your hands on a genuine Hermes Kelly bag, you’re looking at a standard one-year wait, if not longer. Plus, you could easily pay tens of thousands of dollars to make it your own. To experience the beauty and prestige of this Hermes handbag without the interminable delay and the budget-busting price tag, why not consider a replica handbags, Hermes Kelly? At Top 1 replica Handbags, our stunning reproductions replicate the originals with startling accuracy, right down to the last stitch.
