Hello my loves! This is the first Monday of March, a very special month for me. Firstly, this Month claims to be the birthday month of two of my favorite people in the world – My Grandmother and my dad. Secondly, it is a month of my favorite festival – Festival of Colors, Holi. On 4th March, we all celebrated my Grandmom’s birthday; the most elegant women I have in my life. She has her own style-statement traditional yet modern. Talking about style, today, I thought to compile Life lessons from the most influential women in history – Coco Chanel. I recently watched, Coco Avant Chanel and her story is so fascinating that I simply can’t resist to compile her very own jewellery
of words.

  1. The quote that really sticks out to me — I don’t care what you think of me — That doesn’t necessarily mean I don’t care about that person, though… But as for how people look at me, I am pretty dang confident and happy with who I am, that other people’s thoughts on ME… Meh, not important!

    1. I completely agree with you, it is important to be happy and confident with who you are. If you know yourself, it doesn’t really matter what others think about you. Thanks 🙂

    2. I completely agree with you, it is important to be happy and confident with who you are. If you know yourself, it doesn’t really matter what others think about you. Thanks 🙂

  2. I like this quote:” The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud. ” I believe that being authentic and genuine to one’s true self is very important. Not only will other people respect you more, but when you think for oneself and not just what other people want you to think, your motivations for doing things will be more genuine as well.

    1. I agree with you 100%. Thanks 🙂

  3. These are awesome, thanks for sharing :)!

    1. I am glad that you liked these quotes! 🙂

  4. “A woman, who cuts her hair, is about to change her life.” I’ve heard that A LOT lately! Maybe I should cut my hair? I’ve been, pretty much wearing it the same way since I was 16. The past 3 years, I haven’t been wearing a barrette… That’s the only difference, LOL… My definition, of getting my hair cut, is handing the scissors to my husband and saying, “Cut 2 inches off. Just make sure you cut a straight line”. lmao 🙂

    1. Hahahha…Trust me life changes after a hair cut…new hairstyle, new life!
