I will be starting a reading group at Wellington Garden Center in Edmonton! It's such and inspiring place to meet and explore French style and culture.
We are having a first meeting on December 12th from 7 to 9 pm at Wellington. The book, as seen in the title of this blog looks really interesting and explores the life of this fashion icon. From the book description on Amazon:
The story of Chanel begins with an abandoned child, as lost as a girl in a dark fairy tale. Unveiling remarkable new details about Gabrielle Chanel’s early years in a convent orphanage and her flight into unconventional adulthood, Justine Picardie explores what lies beneath the glossy surface of a mythic fashion icon.

I'm at a time in my life where I am fascinated with strong, talented women. From Emily Carr to Georgia O'Keeffe, I have learned so much about the strong talent and will that runs in these women who have given their lives over to their art.
So if you want to know more about Coco, please join us, in person or virtually, to share your reading experience!
Bonsoir,
Stella
