I love how Chanel No. 5 smells, but I don't think I'm allowed to wear it. Chanel No. 5 is the scent of choice of Nicole Kidman and Catherine Deneuve. Marilyn Monroe wore it proudly, even when she wore nothing else.
But, since I'm hiding behind a closed office door, waiting for the big wet spot on my blouse to dry a little because I somehow soaked myself with Coke simply by drinking from the bottle, I don't think I'm allowed in their Chanel club.
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
Ah, how I love this post!
ReplyDeleteI don't typically wear a scent, but Chanel No. 5 is amazing. I used to get it for my mom for Christmas every couple years to supplement her usual Ciara. Of course, I'd borrow from time to time.
ReplyDeleteIf you like it, you should wear it! :)
ReplyDeleteCoke has a sweet, yet crisp aroma, all-American with a hint of vanilla notes.
