Karl Lagerfeld's new Chanel beauty boutique just opened this week on Tuesday, right in the heart of Old Covent Garden Market... It's a beauty heaven, I was so excited to go and check it out myself! I had no idea where exactly it was, so thank you Burberry for pointing the right direction... The lovely store manager and assistant gave me a little tour du jour of the boutique and the nail bar! Yes you heard it right, there is a nail bar! You can paint your nails any colour you want, and the choice is hu-uge... 

You will also find stairs leading to the basement, I call it the beauty cellar where you can find customers being made-up by Chanel leading make-up artists, it all feels like Chanel backstage before the models hit the catwalk... But be worn - you will need to book the consultation in advance, there is a massive, and I mean super huge security boy, I call him Baba... He is a serious man! I was glad the manager personally told him I was allowed to take pics, but still I was under his eye... Apart from the gaze Baba looks so huggable, but I wouldn't recommend attempting that at any point, ha! He's quite a character, definitely is a big part of the store...

There will be events happening throughout the next seven months, which you have to book quite a bit in advance... It is a pop-up store so it's there only till December...  There also will be exclusive new products, which will launch at the boutique... So if you are a beauty-lover you got to check out this Chanel beauty space! It was a very enjoyable experience, it felt like walking through an art gallery filled with luxurious installations... I know that I will be definitely coming back for more and Baba!

CHANEL LOVE
