Chanel No 31

Sunday, January 6th, 2008

No, this isn’t the latest fragrance from Chanel… I’m referring to No 31 Rue Cambon, Paris: the personal apartment of Coco Chanel.  It’s kept the same as it was at her death in 1971.  Take a peek inside:

Interesting tidbits

  • the apartment smells like No. 5
  • her quilted suede couch inspired her to do quilted leather
  • she collected ornamental lions
  • take a look at “the Milky Way”- diamonds ARE a girl’s best friend!
