Let out your inner couture goddess dolls! The Chanel Cruise 2018 runway show oozed of luxurious flair rich in Grecian culture. Think exquisite draping, gladiator sandals, gold accents as well as wreathed, embellished headbands. Mr. Lagerfeld certainly captured the essence of Greece and brought it to Paris!

“I see Greece as the origin of beauty and culture.” Those were the words of legendary Chanel designer, Karl Lagerfeld in regards to the inspiration behind his Chanel Cruise 2018 runway show. Lagerfeld constructed a breathtaking show that delivered down to the most minuit detail. Even the catwalk’s decor of larger than life pillars and stone work caused one and all in attendance to feel transported from Paris directly into the past. As a result, the entire collection is an ode to the grace and beauty of ancient Greece. Every piece as well as color palette tone was beautiful and fit the show’s overall theme.

Furthermore, what is a runway show without great hair? The Chanel Cruise 2018 collection’s hair looks nicely complimented the show’s couture. Tresses were pulled back into an effortless half up, half down style with the top portion being fashioned into a braid. Hair accessories additionally played a major role in making the hairstyle even more ethereal and extravagant. The results were so elegant and current they would be the perfect chic hairstyle for this season as well!

Chanel Cruise 2018

Several garments and pieces caught our eye but one accessory in particular made us swoon instantly. A gorgeously decorated black and gold hand bag with an owl made its glorious appearance during the show and although small, made quite a statement. In Greek mythology the owl represents Athena, known as being the goddess of wisdom. Thus making the bag quite fitting. Furthermore, being slight Clash of the Titans nerds we could not help but be reminded of all the films as well as their entertaining characters.

Nevertheless, the bag, the hair, the makeup and of course stunning designs made a deep impression and etched a moment into the fashion industry that shall never be forgotten. Chanel put on one amazing show that has us even more stylishly excited for 2018!

The label boasts in the fact that their maternity wear is far from anything that can be considered “Frumpy.”

This is music to the ears of moms-to-be the world over. In the past a stylish pregnant lady was lucky to find an enlarged garment resembling a sheet with four holes. Now thanks to brands like ASOS the pregnancy couture tide has finally turned.

The ASOS Preggers Tshirt retails for only $28! Quite a steal in every way possible. Upon making the discovery that Beyonce rocked their shirt, ASOS made the following statement,

The Teyana Taylor Reebok Freestyle Hi Color Bomb Pack has received much attention due to the fact that they are bringing retro design into the modern era. Well, that is if you consider anything from the 90’s vintage. Reebok commented on the pack stating, “Free your style! We’ve teamed up again with Teyana Taylor to bring you the Freestyle Hi Color Bomb pack. The pack draws inspiration from the loud colors of the 90’s, which is also when Teyana started wearing Freestyles as a little girl.”

As you can see this fashion collaboration was meant to be. Furthermore, we love the fact that the pack is so true to Teyana’s personal style. Taylor’s fun urban chic allure is authentic and captivating. She is certainly the epitome of “get you a girl that can do both.” Relaxed or upscale, Mrs. TT slays. Taylor hit up social to talk Reebok saying,

“So you know we had to go ahead and drop a second round of Reebok Freestyle Hi Color Bomb pack! I’m loving these light colors. These might be my faves right now. So go pick you some up today! They are also available now online at reebok.com.”

Pharrell Williams is talented beyond compare, but he is certainly known for two things… music and fashion! Williams can always be spotted at the hottest music red carpet events as well as couture runway designer shows. Furthermore, he is constantly touted for his personal style and pizzazz in numerous men’s style mags. Therefore, it is no surprise to see him now stepping once again into the fashion spotlight front and center. The Chanel Gabrielle Bag Campaign Starring Pharrell Williams is taking fall/winter trends by storm!

Fashion Scene: The Chanel Gabrielle Bag Campaign Starring Pharrell Williams

We are reminded of a Seinfeld episode when Jerry is carrying an “European handbag” to transport all his daily valuables. Jerry loved it and it made something else very clear. Men have things they want to have on them when going around town just as much as us ladies. However, it seems that men are not always thought of in this way.

Most bags on the market are exclusively made with women in mind. This campaign by Chanel is attempting to give men more chic choices when it comes to bags. Is this a look all men would enjoy? Probably not, many guys still enjoy more of a briefcase design or a bag with small handles that they can carry by hand. However, if one prefers straps they will definitely enjoy the comfort level of swinging something over their shoulder and going about their activities.

Pharrell is the first man to be featured in a Chanel bag campaign. The campaign’s film short was directed by Antoine Carlier. Get a peek of it below.

Moreover, it is such a stand alone garment that you don’t really need to overthink what to wear with it. It is the kind of piece in your wardrobe that you know if you put it on it WILL make a statement. This particular kimono says elegance, luxury and relaxed sex appeal.
