PARIS JOUR QUATRE: THE ORIGINAL CHANEL ATELIER, 31 RUE CAMBON

The day after being a witness to the madness/glamour of a Chanel Haute Coutre show in Paris, I went to Chanel's original Atelier and Apartment. Chanel opened her first shop in 1910 at 31 Rue Cambon, and there was no way I was going to Paris and not stopping by to say hi. Really I just wanted to see the building for myself and the window displays :) Ah, Paris...

MY FRONT ROW MOMENT

Playing paparazzi outside the Grand Palais in Paris on Tuesday July 5th was one of the best fashion moments of my life. A special thanks to my amazing fiance for hanging out while I got swept up in the fantasy of it all. I love you.

PARIS JOUR TROIS CONTINUED: AN EVENING OF PLAYING PAPARAZZI OUTSIDE THE CHANEL FALL 2011 HAUTE COUTURE SHOW

Before I went to Paris on vacation, I had read on twitter Chanel would host their Fall 2011 presentation at the Grand Palais on Tuesday, July 5th. It was Haute Couture week when I was there so my amazing fiance and I made it down to the Grand Palais to style and celeb stock. Or at least I was, my boyfriend was commenting on the cars.. LOL It was an amazing event, I'm still so thrilled and impressed my man stuck it out with me I can't believe the people I saw and said "hi" to.



Carine Roitfeld!!! Former Editor and Chief of Vogue Paris.



Hilary Alexander below, another legend/icon of mine.. I was weak in the knees at this moment, and these were the first two celebs I saw. Off to a good start.. :)



Grace Coddington bottom right photo. She zoomed right in, didn't stop for anyone but can't hide with that hair. I wish she would have paused to say hi..

Two pictures below are a few of my favourite pictures of the Parisian people.

Milla Jovovich and husband. She was so nice and totally stopped to pose without coming across pretentious but saying thank you to us for our support. I was blown away by her..
