Hot Trend at Chanel – Jade

Long considered as the stone for the royals and the most beloved precious stone in Chinese culture, Jade was always seen as overly traditional for the 21st century but be prepared to loan those Jade jeweleries from your mom and your grandma soon as they are going to be one of the hottest trends, ignited by Karl Lagerfeld at Chanel. I love how the trend is so well executed from Jade-adorned rings to clutch, belt and shoes. The beautiful green shade has even been used on the updated classic tweed. On top of that, expect to see the Jade-shade nail polish and mascara on Chanel make-up counter the next time you drop by.

YSL Muse Two

Not contented with the wild success of its YSL Muse bag, the French most respected fashion house alongside Lanvin and Chanel today is ready to reap another growing success from YSL Muse Two. While the original Muse has reached and passed the “it” status to become the house’s most iconic bag, Muse Two has also been seen everywhere from TV shows to tabloids ever since the campaign featuring supermodel Kate Moss released. The shape of the bag and its vintage appeal somehow have clinched this bag a “classic” status. Here seen toting the bag in effortless chic style is another original supermodel, Claudia Schiffer (her hair, her glowing skin, her “bunny teeth” are simply gorgeous!). The latest reincarnation of this bag in striking navy and purple croc-stamped suede from Neiman Marcus will set you back by USD1,995 but it is one of a kind and is a worthy investment piece.
