Chic Memphis

one doesn't have to own chanel

to look chanelean

[i read that in my new book--the gospel according to coco chanel]

isn't that a relief?

the idea is to borrow. adapt. modernize. individualize.

tweed. belt it.

remember your proportions.

simple is better.

BUT MAYBE THIS SIMPLY ISN'T YOU.

contrast with the previous post about bohemians.

rachel zoe would be proud

chanel is likely turning over in her grave

maybe you prefer things that are not form-fitting

guess what?

being chic doesn't mandate that you abide by one style scheme

flirt with different ideas

push your boundaries

dress your mood

takes a little creativity, a bit of time, and a whole lot of

CONFIDENCE.
