The main entrance to Chanel on rue Cambon, Paris.
Camellias and charm at Chanel.
The ensemble on the left is reminiscent of the Gibson Girl look, with a modern twist.
Pearl braid upgrades a uniform.
Gold-dotted White shoes to wear after Easter (or before, if you're at a tropical resort).
Sequinned-and-lace-covered leather wedgies adorned with a camellia.
Over-the-top wonderful!

We're very close to booking our trip -- should be in Paris for a day or two May 28th-ish, then to England, then back to Paris about June 7th or 8th for about 10 days. It would be fabulous if we managed to meet -- meanwhile, this set of photos is fuelling my trip excitement, thanks!

I need to go out and do the reflections assignment yet ... sunshine today, remarkable and surely worth celebrating. Your title made me smile and think spring is coming.
Beautiful models.
