Guys and girls, one of the latest shows in Paris is Chanel. Of course there’s also Alexander McQueen, Ciambattista Valli, Louis Vuitton, and Valentino among many others. But, as you know, I have a love for Chanel so I’m featuring it first. Looking at Chanel’s collection, all I can see is a lot of “First Lady Outfits” and some punk sophistication. I can clearly see the Olsen’s twins wearing some of the outfits Karl Lagerfeld has designed for the Spring 2009 collection.

Anyway, another thing I’ve noticed in their collection is the latest handbags Chanel has made for us for Spring. I am so excited. I can see rectangular shopping totes that looks pretty affordable than their usual prices. Also, there are a lot of white and black squarish quilted totes… something you can tag along anytime of the day. And have you seen those printed flap bags? There’s a printed floral flap bag, a black and white abstract print and so much more! I can’t wait to see all of them personally. Anyhow, there’s also something that’s bothering me about Chanel’s collection. Notice the black and white print in some dresses? I’m bothered that it’s somehow similar to Michael Kors’ latest collection. Good thing the design is different but still quite bothering if you’d ask me. If I’d buy a Chanel dress I wouldn’t want it to be mistaken as something else. Oooh… and have you seen the rubber swim suits? They are gorgeous! However, I doubt that you can seriously wear them to the beach or the pool. I think it’s gonna be pretty hot wearing those in the summer. At the same time, I don’t know how it will feel when worn. Perhaps it’s just all for show! 
Well, the rich and the elite have their ways… So my verdict on Chanel’s Spring 2009 collection? Soooo Chanel. Bravo to Karl Lagerfeld for maintaining the Chanel identity. Check out the video of Chanel Spring 2009 show below.
