Lily Allen was recently seen with the handbags from the Coco Cocoon collection. The Chanel campaign star also gets paid to promote this brand. According to the creative director of Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld, the lifestyle and sense of humour of the British singer was the reason why he chose her to front his latest collection. Lily also proved her brand loyalty by performing at Chanel’s Paris show during Fashion Week. The Coco Cocoon collection would be launched in Chanel stores in about two weeks.
New Lily Allen and Chanel handbag ads has just been revealed. The pics are made in old Hollywood-inspired black and white theme, with Allen an exact copy of Audrey Hepburn or Coco herself. The ad is OK, it is glamorous and stylish. The only one thing, I can’t think of Lily as glam and fab girl, since I still imagine her to be the leader of “Top 5 worst dresses” list.
Once my friend asked me whether I liked totes with logos? And my answer was – NO. Really, I couldn’t stand the idea of carrying a bag that vulgar and posh. It was too obvious where I had taken it.
But now the situation with handbags has changed. I DO love totes with logos. I don’t think them to be too trite and tasteless, I just think they are great (especially with discounts). My absolute favorite is Chanel Logo Tote. I think this bag is worth every penny one spends on it.
And now dresses. I can’t imagine my life without them. Gone are the days when a small girl was screaming and yelling: “Dresses? NEVER!!!” Nowadays, even daring dresses is not a problem. I can wear all kinds, length and styles.
That’s why I would like to draw a conclusion, that our life and style vision can change in the course of time. Do you understand me? Have you had such changes in your life???

It goes without saying that nowadays almost everybody has access to a variety of informational, entertainment and educational resources. We can switch on TV or radio, read newspapers or online magazines and always stay tuned. But, actually, more and more people fail. Why?
Let’s start from me. I have a fashion blog and adore writing about all these latest fashion stories and recommendations, stylish and not very celebrities, new fashion trends. Unfortunately, sometimes it takes me more than an hour at least to have a quick review of all this info and unfortunately, very often it wasn’t worth my attention. So, I feel myself frustrated and disappointed. Please, don’t think that I don’t like all info, fashion and news portals, I just can’t choose the best and so get too many news.
