Do you have MSN.com set as your home page? If you do, you were treated to this clever ad campaign by Chanel for their new No. 5 commercial starring Audrey Tautou. Love how the train ran across the top banner and the schedule billboard dropped down across the screen. Love how the whole page was redesigned. I spent some time this morning clicking around HERE where you can see the long and short version of the 'film', and even behind-the-scenes. Then it dawned on me.....today is 5/5. LOVE that kind of CLEVER.
Everything about Chanel is classy don't you think? Karl Lagerfeld puts on tremendous runway shows for House of Chanel. Did you see the one with all the paper flowers? Imagine the work that went into this!
My own connection to Chanel: the first gift I ever got from Graham was Chanel perfume, before we were married. No. 5 is a fave. And not more than a mile from our home is a huge Chanel coumpound. It's two buildings and there is an over-the-street walkway connection between them. I often wonder what goes on in there - kinda like the Wonka factory. When the packaging used to say "Paris London New York" I thought it should include Piscataway. What if the same water I drink is used to make No. 5?
I adored the Baz Luhrmann/Nicole Kidman commercial from a few years back. I never knew you could see the "making of" clips until I went HERE, also found on youtube. And for the newest one, visit HERE. Did anyone see the Coco Avant Chanel? It hasn't been here yet. Hope I didn't miss it.
