Channeling Chanel - TWEED!


If there is one designer who made a name for herself it is Coco Chanel. And today I am paying homage to Chanel by doing a blog post on tweed. Chanel made the tweed jacket an iconic look that can still be found today.

I am including a photo of Chanel herself wearing and styling one of her tweed designs on a Model. And a photo of Jackie Kennedy wearing a Chanel tweed suit. This way you can see the evolution of the tweed look, from then to now. Some say that the tweed look is too, "old fashioned" but I also included a few photos of the different ways that tweed has adapted to today's style. Enjoy!
