How many cares one loses when one decides not to be something but to be someone
quote from Coco Chanel.
She was shrewd, chic and on the cutting edge. Coco took the look of a mans suit and made it feminine, proper, timeless and coveted. The clothes she created changed the way women looked and how they looked at themselves.
The influential Chanel suit, launched in 1923, was an elegant outfit composed of a knee-length skirt paired with a trim, boxy jacket, traditionally made of woven wool with black trim and gold buttons and worn with large costume-pearl necklaces.
A perfect shoe to combine with the perfect suit, classic with a bit of detail:
