There is a popular saying "All you need is love, but Chanel is a glorious substitute." Every woman would love to have a great Chanel little black dress, the popular Chanel bag, and even some Chanel shoes, but it will cost you. Fortunately you can get the chic, elegant, and tasteful look of Chanel for a much lower cost.
Keira Knightley, one of the faces of Chanel perfume and popular period piece actress is one of Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld's muses In early 2009, Keira Knightley attended a Chanel fashion show at Paris Fashion Week Haute Couture and represented Chanel by showing off some of the most simplistic and yet classy pieces of the collection. Wearing a body hugging pencil skirt, a tasteful black sweater, and studded shoes, Keira Knightley was perfectly displaying Coco Chanel's love of elegance and taste.
This Chanel outfit would be the perfect outfit for the workplace. Tasteful, simple, elegant, and oh so wearable, it would work in fall, winter, summer, and spring, and be worn in many different ways. You can get this Chanel look for less if you do some bargain shopping. A sweater such as Keira Knightley's might be too warm and inappropriate for these summer months so turn to a tasteful and simple collared top that is fitted. Walmart offers a George women's cap sleeved button down shirt for $12.00 that would be a perfect fit for this outfit. The skirt is the key piece in this outfit and it needs to be fitted yet appropriate for the workplace. A Mossimo black grecian draped pencil skirt for $9.99 from Target is a steal and can be worn in this outfit and other outfits as well. Finally, a great pair of stylish pumps preferably with some jazz to them to spruce up the outfit is the final addition in achieving this look. A patent twist high heel with a cute button in white at the toe offers the Chanel charm without the cost. These fierce shoes can be found at Deb Shops for $19.99.
While Keira Knightley does not wear any jewelry with her outfit you can spruce your outfit up however you want. A great paif of earrings, a fabulous bracelet, or a bold cocktail ring would be a great enhancement to this classy outfit. Also, a stylish bag or clutch would be an excellent addition. With the simplicity of the all black outfit you have the freedom to be bolder in your accesory choices.
Achieving Keira Knightley's timeless elegance at Paris Fashion Week will cost only $41.98. This outfit is perfect for the workplace or grabbing a smart cocktail after work. You will feel your inner Coco Chanel coming out of you.
