CHANEL Opens New Montreal Boutique at Holt Renfrew Ogilvy

10 December, 2019 Nelia

If you love fashion and CHANEL, book your tickets to Montreal ASAP, because the iconic brand just expanded their Montreal presence with a new Peter Marino designed boutique. The 310 sqm boutique within Holt Renfrew Ogilvy will offer Ready-to-Wear, handbags, shoes, costume jewellery and eyewear as well as a selection of Watches & Fine Jewellery. Judging from the photos, the space is both timeless and understated, with the iconic tweed upholstery, silk and wool carpeting, and textured wall finishes in custom ‘moongold’ and coromandel tones. The twin staircases on the main floor are a striking feature, with the right staircase leading clients to heaven…aka the shoe salon, and the left to a second accessory salon.

A larger CHANEL boutique means greater selection, which also means if I can’t find something in Toronto, I can get my SA to try and find it in Montreal. A win-win all around. Next time I’m in Montreal, I’m definitely adding a visit to this beauty of a boutique to my itinerary, along with brunch at Arthurs Nosh Bar, and a St-Viateur bagel run. And just like that, I’m in sudden need of a weekend in Montreal! Thanks, CHANEL!

You Are Invited: CHANEL Coco Game Center at Holt Renfrew in Toronto

15 March, 2018 Nelia

If you live in Toronto, I have great news for you! The new CHANEL Coco Game Center has arrived at Holt Renfrew Bloor Street and will be open until April 15th. This amazing CHANEL Beauty pop-up features actual arcade games you can play, while getting acquainted with the brand’s latest beauty launches like the new Rouge Coco Lip Blush ($37) – a versatile product that you can use on your lips and your cheeks for a pop of colour and hydration, and available in 6 covetable shades.

While at the Coco Game Center, you can play The Bubble Game for a chance to win Hydra Beauty skincare samples, express services, and one-of-a-kind gifts, take The Beauty Ride in the Coco Car, take a break at The CHANCE Lounge to discover the various facets of CHANCE fragrances (my personal fave is Eau Vive!), and of course, play Rouge Coco – The Game where you can win prizes and get a lippie touch-up while you’re at it.

Coco Game Center was inspired by the playful arcades of Japan, and so far, only Tokyo and Toronto get to experience everything Coco Game Center has to offer. How cool is that?! Along with the fun games and installations, you can get personalized consultations, touch-ups, and beauty recommendations from the CHANEL beauty experts, and of course everything in the beautiful pop-up is extremely photogenic and instagrammable.

Coco Game Center will be open until April 15th, so you have less than a month to enjoy this amazing CHANEL Beauty experience! Game on!

You Are Invited: CHANEL COCO CAFÉ at Holt Renfrew in Toronto

2 March, 2017 Nelia

If you’ve always dreamed of visiting a CHANEL-themed cafe, then you’re in luck! Running from March 1 to March 26, COCO CAFÉ at Holt Renfrew Bloor Street in Toronto will welcome all with open arms, complimentary beauty services, and CHANEL-branded coffee cups. I got a chance to preview the space yesterday, and as always I walked away in awe of CHANEL’s ability to transform any space into a dreamlike wonderland, whether it comes to runway shows, or pop-up shops like the COCO CAFÉ.

Celebrating the launch of ROUGE COCO GLOSS, COCO CAFÉ features a variety of fun beauty stations, filled to the brim with covetable goodies. There’s a very instagrammable magnet wall, the cutest selfie backdrop, and lots of complimentary services:

CHANEL CHANCE “Juice Bar” fragrance consultations
Hydra Beauty “Bubble Bar” face or hand massages
Lip Lollipop Bar
Manicure Bar
Nail Photo Cam
Makeup Master Classes

For someone who loves CHANEL and beauty, this is the ultimate pop-up experience. Stop by, play with some beauty products, shop the new ROUGE COCO GLOSS before its official launch date (March 3rd), take lots of photos, and just have fun. The cheerful COCO CAFÉ and the beaming Lily-Rose Depp wouldn’t have it any other way.

Shopping: CHANEL Paris Seoul Cruise Collection Is In Stores Now!

12 November, 2015 Nelia

Judging by how popular this post was, I think it’s pretty safe to say that a lot of people are excited about CHANEL Paris Seoul Cruise collection. Well, the wait is over – the collection has officially launched in Canada, with most bags and accessories already in stores, with more clothes and other items arriving this Friday and slowly throughout November and December. But if bags are your jam, then I would highly recommend heading to your local CHANEL boutique today for the best selection and availability. I listed USD prices after the jump, but with the exchange rates as they are, Canadian bags are sure to be a bit pricier. That stunning iridescent CHANEL Boy bag, for example, is CAD 4,900 vs. USD 4,300, so it’s not a huge difference…but it still helps to be aware of the price variances.

Personally, I’ve been dying to get my hands on one of the colourful tweed flap bags from this collection, so I’ll be checking out Toronto’s arrivals today, to see if I can find THE ONE. If you’re interested in that incredible striped sequin flap bag, it’s going to set you back a cool CAD 10,000…I asked. And though I can’t afford it, I am sure it’ll fly off the shelves as soon as it arrives…it’s so beautiful!

So tell me, are you excited about this collection? Will you be checking it out in stores? Share your faves in the comments.
