The Chanel 2016/2017 show in Cuba was absolutely brilliant.  It makes me proud to be an old school fedora wearer and dipper into menswear.  Cropped pants, simple shirts, berets, faded t-shirts and long dresses.  Trust me, if I had a big fat cigar I would’ve rocked it as a prop.

Grab a cuppa, sit back and get some Cuban inspiration in the video above.

Surplus photos on my Instagram (Karenbritchick) on Monday!

    As always, you’re pure inspiration. I had a pair of Kenneth Cole two tone shoes almost identical to yours but I think I sold them!!! Sad!!!! Also hadn’t been feeling maxis recently but your update suggestions reignited my love. Thanks sweetie.

    I love dresses like this, I sew a pair in every season, sleeveless too….
    Take a look to my last DIY…I painted a pair of clogs that I bought in sales for 9 euros, and now have this Flower Power clog!!!! jajaja

    Occasionally I inspired me and I make time to do something like this…

    I could not agree more – the Chanel show was impeccable.
    Also the fact that it was set at El Prado walkway where everyone had a glance at it.. made it very democratic.
