CHANEL · Backstage Beauty Cruise 2022/23 Collection
CHANEL’s recent Cruise 2022/23 Collection was held at the scenic Beach Hotel in Monaco, with the venue being a place the late Karl Lagerfeld long creamed of, especially since his beautiful villa was just steps away. Inspired by the elegant yet sporty atmosphere both seen & felt in this principality, the beauty look created for the show was effortless, breezy, and sunshine-filled. In other words, 100% French-girl chic … and a look that I intend to totally appropriate all summer long.
Dior · The Atelier of Dreams Holiday 2021 Collection
For Holiday 2021, Peter Philips — Dior’s Creative & Image Director, paid tribute to the House’s prestigious 30 Avenue Montagne flagship location, by incorporating stylistic elements of the facade into the pieces. In other words, Dior has once again pulled out all the stops and created display-worth, yet still stunningly wearable, beauty.
CHANEL · N°5 Holiday 2021 Makeup Collection
CHANEL’s iconic N°5 is celebrating 100 years of celebrity and is the inspiration behind this year’s 2021 Holiday Makeup Collection.

Of course, there’s a little bit of sparkle thrown in as well to help you “zhuzh” up your looks … done in CHANEL’s inimitably elegant style, naturally.

Interestingly, both makeup and hair had a strong edge, an effect that toned down the softness of the pieces and gave the looks an overall rock & roll vibe which I personally found so fresh and, well … cool.
CHANEL · Éclat et Transparence, Cruise 2018 Collection
The newest release from CHANEL, Éclat et Transparence Cruise 2018, draws inspiration from the gorgeous sheer effect produced by the interplay of shadow & light, and I have most of the collection to show you here today. The textures and colours of Summer — warm air, rippling water, and hazy filtered light, are all so beautifully represented and form the key to understanding these pieces: it’s about the application, and more importantly, layering. Plus, everything is just so gorgeous …
