“Before leaving the house, a lady should stop, look in the mirror, and remove one piece of jewellery.” - Coco Chanel
this quote makes sense to me, and yet, so does this outrageous picture above! when it comes to fashion, whether with clothing, shoes, hair, or make-up, the most important thing is that you own it. i have people ask me what “look” is in right now as far as hair cut or color goes. when i look around in this day and age there are constantly layers and layers of many different things that are “in style” at the same moment. do what you want, and have confidence in it, thats what i say anyhow.
true story: i waited on Ms. Apfel at a luncheon at the MFA a couple years ago. She was dressed amazingly and was wearing huuuuuuge glasses.
