Grace Kelly … Taking Inspiration

Grace Kelly, Monacco Collection Christophel

 

Grace Kelly and her elegant style has always resonated with me.

I’ve watched her films, read her biographies and tried to embrace her sense of fashion.

As I grow older I find myself longing for the classic and the understated.

 

Grace Kelly was a master of simplicity… her sense of balance and proportion when it came to dressing was impeccable.

The right accessories made her outfits unique and memorable.

Her Kelly namesake is still probably one of the most beautiful and coveted bags.

 

The addition of a scarf, the button up of a collar and the cinch of a belt worked for her.

She wore jewellery well… but never too much… or too conflicting.

An ornate necklace with an uncomplicated white blouse. Drop earrings with a simple décolleté.

Bracelets adorned her wrists on many occasions.

 

Timeless style… allowing us timeless interpretation… xv
