charmed life♥

Been very busy the past weeks, the office where I work is under renovation: was really into boxing and safekeeping our stuff.  But now I am back!  And it's almost August... time really flies.  Fall/Winter season is just around the corner: so what kind of accessories do we expect to see this season?  During the Fashion week: cuffs, string of pearls, bracelets, single earrings dominated the runway so expect more of these jewels this coming season.  Here's what Chanel and Karl Lagerfeld had to offer for Chanel lovers out there.    The classic signature chain : Lambskin weave metal chain necklace Long necklace & Chokers Gold x Black Pearls BANGLES & CUFFS : Metal and Lambskin - Burgundy x Gold x Black Earrings Rings & Brooches Ooh that classic weave long necklace is L♥VE : Tops my list!  As well as cuffs and bangles with burgundy lambskin.  How about you? What's yo...

Let's feast our eyes: including me of course (hihi) these pieces, as well as the previous Chanel collections always make me "kilig" (giddy).  Chanel is known for pearls... if I say pearls...I mean, lots and lots of pearls.  Can you remember when they introduced the giant pearl chokers in Spring/Summer 2014?  Now Chanel came up with something ostentatious - the body-pearl necklaces, their answer to body chains in an elegant and luxurious way.  The pearl cuff bracelet is ♥, another classic piece from Chanel.  The doily or lace adorned pearl brooch and earrings are so dainty.   The strass metal tie necklace and brooch are amazing!      This set is really very Chanel.  I call this their signature set : resin cuff, multi strand necklace and choker embellished with iconic cc logo, metal and pearl elements. (We often find them on every season's collection) The other pieces on their Fall/Winter 2015-16.  To vie...

source: chanel.com It always excites me every time Chanel launches its new costume jewelry collection.  For their Pre-fall 2015 the collection is called Métiers d’Art (Craftsmanship).  Karl Lagerfeld the ever famous creative director of the house of Chanel incorporated the work of the famous European artisans and Austrian Imperial.   Velvet, gemstones, pearls...   When you see the collection, it's like you are hearing the famous waltz by Strauss and Mozart.  Of course Chanel is known for classic pieces, but I find Métiers d’Art Collection -- Extravagant !
