I’ve just returned from a holiday which means one thing – I’ve got post holiday blues. At first it was simply for the most recent holiday, which I could cope with (just about), but now with the mention of the Paris in Rome campaign from Chanel I am also yearning to be back there too. The food, the men, the sights – what’s not to love? Karl Lagerfeld clearly agrees, tapping Kristen Stewart to take part in the campaign for the collection where she apparently plays an Italian actress in a hotel room. Not unlike myself when I was there. “Karl never turns me into something I’m not,” Ms Stewart told WWD. “But like all good directors, he is capable of bringing qualities out of people that are sometimes not as obvious to them.”
So why Stewart, you ask? “I like her expression, I like the toughness of the attitude, everything” was the word from King Karl. And we couldn’t agree more. Who doesn’t like a bad bitch? Chanel most certainly do – this is the fifth time they have chosen Stewart to star in one of their campaigns. I can’t think of a single time I’ve made it to a fifth date, I must know her secret. For now I will not be returning to Rome, boo. But I can live vicariously through Stewart in the campaign and pretend that I am once more on a Roman holiday. And whether you’ve been to Rome or not you too can do the same. Anywhere is better than at your desk, right?
