Vanessa For Chanel

Vanessa Paradis, has not only sustained a lasting love affair with Johnny Depp, the French public, and countless French filmmakers, she has also maintained her love ties to the Chanel maison de couture. Apparently she is a keeper!
I still remember her with long hair and an oversized t-shirt singing Joe Le Taxi - which, by the way, still sounds unbelievably delicious. But Vanessa if off to bigger and better things.
Karl Lagerfeld is working with her for the third time at Chanel, making her the new face of Chanel’s Coco Cocoon bag line. On the side the two also recently collaborated on a special edition Cannes International Film Festival issue of Madame Figaro, which Paradis is guest editing. Sounds like much more than a spring fling and more like muse status.

Here are some shots of the campaign.

But as much I like what Lagerfeld is doing at Chanel, Vanessa Paradis will always remind me of my three month stay in the south of France as a little girl, and her Joe Le Taxi video clip that ran over and over on M6. So, if like me, you are still stuck in the 80's and remember the song, as an au revoir treat, google the Stereo Total version of Joe Le Taxi! Enjoy!
