Inspired by bright Chanel red, loving mini doses of this dramatic burst of colour. Whether it's a classic quilted handbag, long dramatic drapes, the details of a dress or elegant french packaging, a little bit of red goes a long, long way... it's almost like a parisian neutral of sorts... right up there with black or navy stripes...

It makes such a bold statement. You know that anyone who wears red is confident - and I love that.x

Thank you so much everyone! There's something about red that just feels so european to me, I love it!
And Daniela - we have the same name! lol... fun stuff, although I have two l's in mind but we'll just say it's the same! :)
I have been coveting a Chanel handbag for the longest time & love that red one! Hoping my husband gets the hint for my 30th this year ;)
I'm new to blogs and have just created my own, French Art de Vivre. All your pictures are exquisite. The vivid red of the Chanel bag and Ladurée box, a perfect pick me up for a grey day here in England. Love it!
