The best color in the whole world, is the one that looks good, on you

a quote by Coco Chanel

Gabrielle `Coco’ Chanel was born in 1883 in Saumur. Her mother died when she was just six years of age, leaving her father to tend to five children whom he soon deserted to be looked after by relatives. She got the name of Coco during her short stint as a café and concert singer in 1905-1908. She soon became mistress of a wealthy military officer and then of an English industrialist who enabled her in setting up a millinery shop in Paris in 1910 which she then expanded to Deauville and Biarritz. Her success started with her boyfriends getting her customers among wealthy women of society and making her simple hats very popular among them.

From this millinery shop, she rose to become one of the most successful premier fashion designers in Paris. She was successful in replacing the corset with comfortable and casual clothing with her fashion themes which included simple suits and dresses, trousers for women, costume jewelry, perfume and fabric.

If we take the advice of Coco — pick your favorite color (blue) and accessorize!
