From Coco to Karl

We've seen a lot of Chanel throughout the years, being one of the largest fashion names in the industry, Karl Lagerfeld has continued the legacy of Gabrielle Coco Chanel name making it one of the most oldest companies in the world. When Gabrielle died in 1971 in Paris, a design team tried to keep the company alive but the sales and recognition of the company was fading away slowly. Until Karl Lagerfeld came into place in 1983, years after the company's struggle, the house of Chanel was reborn!

Personally, I really love Chanel, from there perfumes and accessories to clothes, and especially the commercials that are used to promote the products, I personally find all of it to be elegant and original. I really adore how Karl hasn't tampered with the originality of the 'Chanel Suit', leaving it either black & white with the gold buttons, its always been the way it was, sometimes with very minor adjustments to add extra flair every season. 

Having one of the most longest selling perfumes EVER, the fragrance 'Chanel No 5' has not aged a bit, being one of the most greatest smells you'll ever experience in your life, nothing else can even compare! I personally bought bottles for various family individuals and I believe  it's worth the cost ($150-200). Since 1923 the fragrance has lived its name ever since the day it was created in Paris. Having a very strong odor, it has a very mature smell for the older woman, but can also be used by young individuals as well. Its scent is something you wouldn't smell anywhere else; its scent lasts very long which can seduce as well as make you feel like the majestic woman you really are. Being one of the most advertised products in the world, Karl Lagerfeld wanted elegant and classy celebrities/models to help promote the fragrance, such as Nicole Kidman (which was a perfect face for the brand for 5 years), as well as Audrey Tatou who is now the new face of the fragrance. So from Gabrielle Coco Chanel's creations, her legacy did live on with the fabulous creations and support of Karl Lagerfeld.

So if your a fashion lover as well as perfume addict, I recommend Chanel products, from the clothes to the fragrances, you'll always get quality and elegance no matter what!
