Lovely images I adore Coco Chanel and her gorgeous pad !Really looking forward to seeing the film. Love her style saw some great DVF pants on matches, in the sale and was so tempted as I love that look.
But I am on a shopping diet so left them .. maybe next week or I will call into the store next week try them on ..
