Chanel Resort 2016 | Style Blog | Canadian Fashion and Lifestyle News

So I already posted my recap of the fab CHANEL Paris Seoul Cruise 2016 collection, but there’s more! Now that the detailed images are available, I wanted to share the beautiful accessories from this collection. As a lover of all things colourful and bright, the bags are totally up my alley. I am obsessed with the sequinned striped bag, the cheerful tweed flaps, and that iridescent Boy Bag – not sure how I feel about the turtle minaudière, but it wouldn’t be a CHANEL collection without a fun nod to the show’s theme.

Jewelry was pretty stunning as well, but as I mentioned before, the shoes aren’t my cup of tea this time around, which is actually a good thing – less temptation! Having said that…OMG…I need those tweed bags, you guys! This CHANEL addiction is spinning out of control, and I kinda don’t mind. Coming soon to Style Blog: surviving on Cup Noodles to fund your CHANEL obsession. Stay tuned.

Cruise collections are my favourite! Most of the time they invoke thoughts of impossibly glamorous getaways, fancy yachts, gleaming sailboats – the whole nine yards. And CHANEL cruise collections (and shows) are always ones to watch. Not only because they actually take place in those impossibly glam locales, but also because it’s never just a fashion show – it’s a performance and a spectacle.

For CHANEL Cruise 2016 collection, Karl Lagerfeld set his sights on the South Korean metropolis Seoul. Paying homage both to the traditional Korean dress and colorful fashions of wildly popular K-Pop bands, the collection was a candy-crush-coloured dream. Among my favourites were the printed PJ-like set, colourful tweeds, pastel striped errythang, and the most beautiful (and intricate) choker necklaces. This colour-loving girl was thrilled with pretty much every piece from the collection…with the exception of shoes. I am really starting to miss Karl’s creativity when it comes to runway footwear. Here’s hoping Spring 2016 will give us some exciting shoes to look forward to.
