C-Suit
Everything pictured here today is Chanel-ed and see through, even Rocky is see through… I scored the c-suit and the bag with my mom when I was a sophomore in highschool and it was a memorable experience for me.
Ew, clear shoes and a clear bag? Super tacky. In my opinion, if you’re going to be tacky go all out, its the only way.
Rocky wanted to make a little Michael Jackson tribute with her armband.
You can’t fit much in here. I have a $20, credit card, metrocard, and a pill case with ..well…pills.
If you look closely, you’ll see a trademark Chanel technique that has been carried on through the house after her death, she attaches thin chains at the bottom of a lace, not as decoration but for the purposes of weighing down the slip of the skirt. She also did this for the jacket portion of this suit as well, right where the lining meets the hem of the face fabric. I like that the chain is used for functionality and not frivolity.
Aaaah i love every minute of both your outfit and rocky's! Did you make his little outfit?
Literally *gasp* love this entry! Such a shame about MJ – I stopped breathing for a few mins when I found out – you must have felt even suckier with the cold – hope you feel better soon! The illness clearly has not affected the quality of your post – you've styled the suit in a non-obvious way and I LOVE IT… evidently we can't all afford chanel suits, shoes and bags, but ALL can be inspired by creativity and itelligence such as yours.
oh and my love to Rocky!
beautiful!! what a great tribute
As always, AMAZING. I'm speechless.
i never knew about the chain in chanel suits! thanks for sharing that small detail – it makes me anticipate the day i will have my own "c-suit" as you call it!
Really cool about the tiny little chain..never knew! You look so fabulous in the suit..the lace detail on the bottom and the little silver buttons are amazing. I'm pretty sure I've never seen the clear cassette tape bag before and I am completely enamored..incredible.
Ridiculously amazing as always. I could not stop crying when I heard. Still very sad about it. Glad you're feeling better
Agh. I know. I am glued to the television at night when they talk about Michael Jackson – mostly disgusted that they have to go into all this detail about how messed up he was, instead of focusing on his talent, music and impact. I mean they do, but more of it is on how much he weighed when he died and blah blah. By the way, that Chanel case you have there is wonderful, I saw it and squeaked a little bit. And the shoes. And oh, Rocky, the pup.
Anyone else and this much Chanel would be complete overkill, but the mix of new and old pieces looks really good. And those shoes. SO good. Speaking of shoes, would you say Demonia shoes run true to size, a bit small, etc? I'm usually a 38 in sandals, and I'm not sure if an 8 would be good for a boot.
Love these pictures, cute dog
I never thought I'd actually see the clear Chanel accessories translate into real life but you worked it out!
YES, I love the skeleton body suit. I also have that chanel clutch and some similar skeleton tights. I'm beginning to think we're one and the same (taste wise, plus my penchant for demonia boots. All besides your culinary genius, amazing work on self made garments, and amazing photography skills. Yeah, despite all that I would love to make even the slightest comparison haha. KISS, China L.
I love the clear chanel bag and the skeleton body suit. LOVE them. The chain fact about the suit was interesting. I learned something new today..
Wow! Everything here is just a feast for my imagination lol, that clear bag is so cool. The bones stuff is also very very cool. You wear it all so well. RIP MJ :/
Everything about this post is mindblowing. I don't know what to say.
You're great (:
Am sick too
I agree, Rocky's looking very very good! You had good taste even in high school. I wore the most horrendous things. The suit is the most rad version I've seen from Chanel's classic two piece. (The styling with the bone undersuit is the icing)
Very creative photos. Hot CHanel suit. For me such a bag just crosses over into label whore not practical but hey if you can afford it why not!
no fcking way! that skeleton bodystocking(?) looks amazing…i've wanted this pair of skeleton tights for a long time and this just confirms it even more.
amazing.
The cassette bag and clear shoes are just too cute, and you make it work! Amazing outfit! And how you manage to pull off skeleton stockings with Chanel is incredible!
xx
Love it all! So awesome…
i was sick too, totally agree with mj's death making it worse. That clear chanel bag is the shit, also LOVE your bodysuit and rocky's misfits type tee
that bad is the greatest thing ever. i almost bought those shoes, still teetering on if i should or not.
what a great chanel suit.
not a big fan of chanel suit actually… puts me too sleep… but ones again you kind if change my mind question did you made this skeleton top? looks like it has been drawn on a mesh top with white markers for cloth?? could be an idea… bien à vous luxirare leslie
la chauve,
No, You can buy the skeleton body suit at lingerie websites on the internet. They are easy to find and cost anywhere from 15-20 usd.
fucking cool
always looking so great!!congrats!
so dope
fantastic outfit! all i can say is that your level of taste as a sophmore in high school was waaaaay beyond mine at that age.. i wore black lipliner with no lipstick and had blond bangs when i was 15 lol. talk about walking nightmare.haha.
I wanted that clutch SO MUCH in high school, I almost got a credit card to buy it. I wish I had!
its too good! I too wanted that clutch more than life itself in high school. I wish Karl would get back to this vs. the Clueless crap he's been making recently. Miss you bb <3
this is such a refreshing breath of air after seeing korean girls wearing laced up tops and denim shorts all week. if i see another loose fitting dress with pink ribbons and lace on it i'm going to throw up.
I love the Chanel lucite clutch. All of your photos are very editorial. Who's normally help you with the photography?
NIni
you bought a chanel suit when you were a sophomore in highschool?…wow.
all of this just makes me want to intern (become a bitch) for this blog, hahahaha. that's how much i love your blog! sooooo cool. rocky is the best!
That clutch is hilarious and amazing.
I love this post. Two pieces of Chanel can look so ladies who lunch, but of course not when LuxiRare does it. Really brilliant–I use that word to much when I comment on your blog. Rocky looks smashing too!
i wish one day i could pull off that chanel bag and shoes even nearly as cool as you do.
Can you please take over the world? Youe creativity amazes me…as does your choice in chanel suits.Metal.-A-
Agree with the above. I just came back alive after seeing the chanel bag. WTF IT IS GORGEOUS.
Whoah. Full on Chanel paired with a skeleton suit? This is too good to be true.
Love the tribute! I've been surprised by the amount of bloggers who haven't given MJ a single nod.The weighted hem is a traditional tailoring technique found in all well made clothing. No good tailor would produce clothing without it…even good curtains have weighted hems
It's a nice, but unfortunately rare touch.Hope you are back to full health soon Luxirare.
WHOA. Amazingness.
i can't get over MJ's death
(( you my dear, are a true genius. the only way i can describe this is…well, i had to wipe my jaw after reading everything you wrote on this entry and looking at the pics twice.
EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS AMAZING.
RIP MJ. Your chanel suit and bag are absolutely genius. xxx
Great stuff you got there! Love the Chanel suit.
chanel is the best
oh my fucking god
i want the purse
You are impossibly cool

What fabulous pieces. I'm jealous!

Amazing!!
Fuck this is amazing.
i really love the plastic shoes.
this is literally the best thing I have seen all week
Amazing post!!
