Inspiration from “THE LITTLE BLACK JACKET” by Karl Lagerfeld and Carine Roitfeld And the Use of Two Cuffs
Today I was looking through my copy of Karl Lagerfeld’s and Carine Roitfeld’s expanded new edition of “THE LITTLE BLACK JACKET” and my heart leapt. Yes, really! It leapt because it was inspiring and beautiful. The photography is beautiful. Page after page the same black tweed Chanel jacket is worn by women and men of different ages and walks of life and each person looks so very different with a style that is their own. Inspiring and fun, the book energizes us to see style, something difficult to describe but we know it when we see it. What shines through with style are these beautiful, confident people of every age.
I am taken with how the accessories change one’s look and vibe, bold or subtle choices that allow the wearer to express great individuality on a very tangible plane. Browsing through the book made me think of how the use of accessories can make your look complete and unique. A favorite is the look of two bold cuffs, one on each wrist. It can be all the decoration you need to make that basic black dress, with or without a jacket, look styled. Or to make a t-shirt and jeans look your own (and finished). Add a great bag, grab a hat and you look fabulous.
We love cuffs! Wear one, two, or more. Create your own style! Here are some cuffs we love now:
