What a treat! – Time to visit the Chanel store @ South Coast Plaza
One of the greatest pleasures of being part of the stylist team at South Coast Plaza—and there are many—is the exclusive access to in-store events. Whenever a new collection arrives or a special launch is on the calendar, we are invited to experience it firsthand, and it never fails to feel special. These moments allow us to truly connect with the collections, understand the craftsmanship, and appreciate the vision behind each season before it reaches the wider audience.
There is something particularly magical about visiting a store outside regular hours. At times, the boutique is closed exclusively for us; at others, we arrive in the quiet moments before the doors open to the public. The atmosphere is calm, intimate, and inspiring, giving us the opportunity to explore every detail, ask questions, and engage directly with the teams who bring these collections to life.
Recently, we enjoyed a memorable day at Chanel, along with visits to several other stores. I know I am biased, but experiencing such an iconic house in this setting is always a true privilege—from the exquisite materials to the timeless silhouettes that define the brand. Days like these are a reminder of why I adore what I do: they blend fashion, education, and inspiration, while reinforcing the sense of community that makes the South Coast Plaza stylist team so special.
