Reading my favorite 26 Coco Chanel Best Quotes from Men to Style to Life I believe will impress and inspire you!
Chanel’s quotes are full of wisdom and wit.
Her sayings are true words of wisdom…. much much more than just a guide to style.
Mariel Reed editor at marieclaire.co.uk explains: At Marie Claire headquarters we often find ourselves posing the question, ‘WWCS (What Would Coco Say)?’
If we’re ever in doubt, we look to the incredible fashion pioneer for some harsh, yet true words of wisdom. Besides being one of the most influential figures in the fashion world, she was also one of the sassiest women in the biz.
