Yesterday I posted the behind-the-scenes video of the making of the Chanel Spring-Summer 2013 Eyewear Ad Campaign with Laetitia Casta shot by Karl Lagerfeld. Here are all the images from the campaign. Shot in black and white, Laetitia Casta’s statuesque beauty is the perfect canvas to highlight the new Chanel Spring-Summer 2013 eyewear collection – as well as get a good look at some of the accessories. The giant clear-brimmed hat, the camellia necklaces and bracelets – just gorgeous! Check out the rest of the images below…
Chanel just released the behind the scenes video of the Chanel Eyewear Spring-Summer 2013 photo shoot featuring Laetitia Casta and shot by Karl Lagerfeld. I can’t wait to see the actual campaign and see the collection in more detail!

The end of October was a bit busy for me because my daughter was celebrating Halloween for the first time with trick or treating and events at school and I took some time to spend with my family. But, Chanel news doesn’t stop coming. Here are some of my favorite Chanel-related items…

Gaspard Ulliel, the face of Bleu de Chanel has been cast as the designer Yves Saint Laurent in a biopic that has started filming.
Karl Lagerfeld sketched a “no smoking” sign but it’s not your typical sign. However, he was not making a statement about unhealthy habits, instead he was noting all the YSL references on many runways and he was stating that you would find a “smoking” – the french term for tuxedo – on his runway. Lagerfeld stated: “We don’t have to do smoking. Hedi Slimane really does it well.” WWD
Membership in the Chanel club has its benefits. Keira Knightley, the face of Coco Mademoiselle, was dressed in over £1.25 million worth of Chanel jewels for her role as Anna Karenina. InStyle UK
A few weeks ago Karl Lagerfeld shot the Chanel Spring-Summer 2013 campaign in New York City with models Stella Tennant and Ondria Hardin. Lagerfeld stated: “Stella has such a style… Stella is, for me, the perfect Chanel woman.” WWD

Last week Rihanna performed at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show and she wore vintage Chanel sunglasses during her performance and wore a Chanel sweat suit and vintage sunglasses around NY.
A few weeks ago Keira Knightley wore Chanel cosmetics to the NYC premiere of Anna Karenina.
Last night Kristen Stewart wore Chanel cosmetics to the LA premiere of Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2.
Last month I wrote that Karl Lagerfeld had chosen Maïwenn to be the face of the Chanel Fall-Winter 2012/13 eyewear campaign. I recently found images online of the campaign shot by Karl Lagerfeld featuring a very natural looking Maïwenn wearing little makeup and with tousled hair. Maïwenn stated: “I had just come back from holiday, so I was feeling great…Maybe that’s the reason it looks simple, natural and spontaneous. And I think I’m wearing hardly any makeup — just a touch of concealer.”
The Chanel Fall-Winter 2012/13 eyewear campaign features the Tweed collection of glasses which features tweed molded onto the rubber stems of glasses. This is the first look at the Tweed eyewear collection that I’ve seen and I can’t wait to see more. I’m sure Chanel used the latest process to give the most realistic look.
The Chanel Fall-Winter 2012/13 eyewear collection will retail for about “200 euros to 380 euros, or $415 to $492 at current exchange.” The campaign is set to publish in magazines starting in September issues when the glasses will be available for sale.
Chanel released it spring-summer 2012 eyewear collection to much fanfare with ad campaign images featuring Linda Evangelista and with photos by Karl Lagerfeld. For the past few years, Karl Lagerfeld has relied on the Code of Chanel such as pearls, matelassé (quilting) and chains woven with leather. For spring-summer 2012, rather than relying on a signature Chanel code, Karl Lagerfeld put together a strong collection of glasses with pops of color. Bright reds, yellows, turquoise and pale pink lighten up an otherwise traditional palette of black and tortoise shell. View the new collection, including boutique exclusives in the gallery below.

I was able to find all of the Chanel Spring Summer 2012 Eyewear ad campaign images featuring Linda Evangelista and photographed by Karl Lagerfeld. Evangelista looks as stunning now as she did in the ’90s. Check out the images below…
Valentine’s Day is coming and there’s no better way to say “I love you” than with the gift of Chanel (chocolate comes close though)! Chanel is releasing its 2012 Valentine’s Day collection featuring purses, small leather goods and accessories. The collection is awash in the palest pink and soft shimmery gold giving it a hint of the blush of first love. It’s hard to choose a favorite as I love them all (and would be happy receiving any as a gift dear husband) but I’m especially loving the exotics skins, the quilted bag shaped like a brown paper lunch bag, the camellia and camellia-embosses leather items, the wrist cuff, brooch, earrings, and bracelets. This collection is so lovely and would be a great transition into spring. And don’t forget, you don’t need a Valentine to treat yourself on Valentine’s Day.
I just came across some images of the Chanel Christmas 2011 Accessories collection and I’d be happy to find any of these items in my Christmas stocking or under the tree. The collection features leather goods in a lavender leather, accessories in a muted color palette of lavender, grey and ivory and items in signature black and white. It’s hard to pick a favorite but I’m partial to anything with pearls or in black – Santa, I hope you’re listening! The collection will be in stores in December so start saving your pretty pennies or start dropping those hints
Claudia Schiffer is the back as the face of the Chanel Prestige FW 2011/12 Eyewear Collection. Her ad campaign images have been out for some time but I just saw some behind the scenes images on the British Vogue website. I’ve also included the actual campaign images in the gallery so you can see the finished product.
I’m really loving the sunglasses with the leather/chain detail – I may have to get a pair! Black x Gold of course!
