Miss Coco

I always say that I am a sucker for smooth, plain, uncomplicated designs, no wonder Chanel is one of my favourite brands in RL! When the ever lovely Miss Laura18 Street told me there was a store dedicated to Chanel in SL I couldn’t believe it and I had to pay a visit.

Coco & Co is not a large store, but you can find anything to dress yourself yourself as a perfect Coco girl. There’s the famous tailleurs and the little dresses like the one I am wearing in these pictures, plus shoes, purses, accessories…my head was spinning! All items are transfer but no copy, wich proved to be a godsend when I noticed a problem with my shoes. In fact the shoes come with a clicking heel sound that cannot be turned off. I contacted the creator, Miss Tanya Takacs who promptly replied to me asking me to give her the shoes back, and after 5 minutes she replaced them with a new pair without the much hated clicky sound! She said in fact that many customers complained about this and she’s about to eliminate the sound from all of the shoes.

And if you can’t get enough of Chanel, I have a tip for you! In occasion of the BOSL Fashion Week which is being held this week in various locations, there will be a special tribute show dedicated to Coco Chanel and her work. More than 20 designers such as SySy Chapman, Monica Outlander, Applonia Criss, Nardja Rousselot and Elettra Gausman just to name a few, will recreate their favourite Chanel designs in their own unique way. So on August 16th at 10am SLT be sure not to miss this special and unique fashion show, set in an amazing stage at the Patch Thibaud auditorium.
