i love the lace bike shorts alexa's been wearing lately. i also love the fact that she decided to wear those sheer tights with the run still in them.

chanel fall 2010

as much as i love the clothes, in the case of chanel's runway shows, i'm always eager to see what karl does with the actual runway (almost) more. this season he does not disappoint. to shed light onto global warming, karl had a 265 ton swedish iceberg carved in the middle of the runway. watch the video:

chanel spring 2010

i always look forward to the chanel runway shows, since the whole thing is literally a production and always entertaining. this season is no exception, with a whole barn being built in the palais royal. must be an ode to the farm he owns in vermont, right? the details were impeccable as always, including temporary tattoos of chanel jewelry on the models. but the best part? when freja and lara had a threesome on the runway and shared a girl-on-girl kiss.

some highlights from style.com:

chanel fall 09

the first images of freja beha and heidi mount at karl's vermont house for chanels fall '09 campaign. the juxtaposition of chanel's classic suiting against the woodland forest background is interesting.

coco avant chanel

i figure while i'm on this whole audrey x chanel kick, i would include the trailer for the new chanel biopic starring audrey. there is no imminent release date in the states as of yet, so let's all cross our fingers.

I love my Chanel as much as the next girl, but yikes. May GOB can update his segway to this one for the upcoming movie. You know those Bluths love their extravagances.

According to The Cut, the Chanel bike cost $12,000, so you can only guess how much this baby will cost ya.

Top speed on this roadster? 12 MPH. Get your helmet out.

Sorry

Life has taken a hectic turn for the worse! Just wanted to say hi and thanks for all your sweet comments! I haven't forgotten about you!

I love this photo. It reminds me of the Chanel Spring Couture show. I also want to make a mobile out of white paper cranes.

A follow up to my other Chanel Couture post. This time a shot of the runway. I wish I could replicate this for my walls!

Chanel Spring Couture

Like everyone else, I am enamored with this collection. Not for the pieces per se, but the paper used to style the runway. This is the ultimate in crafting! The headdresses and the decor was all done in white paper!

An example of the exquisite details.
