Inside Coco Chanel's Apartment at 31 Rue Cambon

a virtual tour

It's Christmas time and make a wish!
I wish I could take a tour of Mademoiselle Chanel's apartment in Paris.
I wish I could stay in the Coco Chanel Suite at Hotel Ritz Paris for one night.
I wish I could have the Chinese antique screens in Coco's Apartment.
I wish I could have many many Chanel shoes.

From House to Home

After a whole day of arranging furnitures, moving them around, mixing and matching,
the best thing is sit down and relax in the garden and have our dinner together next to the pool 
in a warm Autumn evening.

Beach Cottage


Beach Cottage from Country Living,designed by Alex Bates
Alex and Andrew Bates' home on Fire Island, New York

"Alex and Andrew Bates enjoy a bicycle ride along one of Fire Island's boardwalks. 
Berry bushes line the boardwalk behind their home, 
and in the mornings, they pick fresh blueberries for making pancakes. 
Jealous yet?"

With a relaxing lifestyle as theirs. Nothing to ask anymore in life, really.
I'm very jealous!

Vintage Glamour





 
A gift for myself...
Recently bought vintage lion head necklace from eBay.
The sweet seller sent me a free gift with my necklace purchased.
I'm very lucky as over the years with thousands of purchases off eBay I've found many reputable sellers.
These people make online buying a better place.
Thank you!


Here's another vintage necklace I've got on my writing table.
I love to display my vintage jewelleries rather than wear them.
They now are home decoration pieces all over my house.
I also collect sea shells, corals and Asian influenced pretty stuffs.
Hope you will like it.
