My favorite scenes from Coco avant Chanel

I love the last part of the movie where during her first "fashion show" Coco has flash- back moments on the staircase.
The clothes, the music and Audrey Tautou manage to create a powerful image of the steely woman that Coco (Gabrielle) Chanel must have been.
It must have been nearly impossible for her- being a woman in those days, and having to claw her way up every inch, from being a nobody to creating the empire called Chanel.

What a woman.

Twist on a classic 240610 -Hello, Mary Jane from which Galaxy ?

                                                                    

Trust Nicholas Ghesquiere to make old fashioned Mary Janes look as good as these !
Always watch the Balenciaga shoes - very interesting.

Uh oh, just one post in May?

                                                               

Well, May has been pretty bad for me as far as internet connectivity goes, but the truth is - I like to blog but its not easy and it isn't essential to my daily feeling of wellbeing (Yet) !! 

Twitter is nice that way, because there is no pressure, you can just log in on some days and check out whats happening on the net make a few well considered comments and sign off, such a relief !!
