I don't get people questioning her being chosen for a campaign....Chanel has a very long history of choosing beautiful, young, 'happening' actresses for it's ads- I think she will look wonderful!!

^totally agree with every word Boomer

Here's a little bigger pic, from wwd

I much more prefer the leather version she's got in the pic with Karl.

Yay she's back on set.

From WWD, via The Cut:

"Lively related that Lagerfeld gave her a preview of the set after dinner. 'I took a photo of him so that I would never forget that moment,' she said. 'Never did I think six months later he would be photographing me.'

I find that so positively adorable! She's so humble and down to Earth about it all, taking a photo of her dinner with Lagerfeld as a memento of the magical moment. Ahh! It's hard to be envious of her, she truly embodies the vision of Chanel mademoiselle (in my opinion). She's your girl next door, but effortlessly chic. You want to be her, but there is no jealousy - just admiration. xx

I think she'll look beautiful in the campaign. Bring it on!

They said it will hit in Mid-March, but I have great faith in our spies....

From Vainstyle.com-

Going from Gossip Girl to Chanel Girl, Blake Lively is certainly attempting to make her mark on the world of fashion. The 23-year old actress has recently been announced as the new face of legendary designer brand Chanel and will be featured in the brands spring ad campaigns for their new Mademoiselle handbag line. Lively expressed, “I can say that I feel like the happiest, luckiest girl around. Though I am the face of it, I will carry it like every girl. I will always feel it’s more than just a purse. It’s a quilted case full of lipstick, love letters and the dreams and possibilities that I have always felt every time I see that beautiful ‘CC.’” Lively went on to say, “It is timeless, chic, graceful, intelligent, iconic and ever relevant.”
It would certainly be safe to say that Lively has a deep rooted child like fondness and admiration for Chanel that will instantly come across in the ad creative. On paper, this sounds like a match made in heaven

Same jackets?

Sorry to bother, but who thinks the blazer Blake has on really is the same piece as the picture above?
Both are supposed to be Rag & Bone razor coat/jacket, but to me they could be different pieces...

I'm thinking of buying the blazer from Ssense.com, but it looks so much better on Blake than on the model.

^ I think there is no question that is it- all of the details look exactly the same...I could only find the other items....

Dress - Georges Chakra
Shoes - BEATRIX ONG
Purse - Chloe

 

[Katrien]

^ Thank you for your reply.

I just think the fit on the model looks a little different. The jacket sticks more to the body, goes inwards, whereas on Blake the lower part of the blazer looks more loose. I just hope it isn't fake?!

Now I don't know whether I should order it or not. I have no experience with Ssense, but whatever happens, I will not be able to return the jacket as it's on sale. In general people seem to have okay experiences with that website, but I also came across some bad reviews (defects, even money problems, ...). Hmm...

On topic: go Blake-Chanel!
