LITTLE BOOK OF CHANEL

This monograph on Coco Chanel chronicles the life and legacy of one of history's most influential couturiers.

From her early days of millinery, through her revolutionary inventions in sportswear and jersey fashions for women, the classics that have made her name, such as the Chanel cardigan jacket and the little black dress, to the global empire of the brand under the helm of Karl Lagerfeld, this beautifully illustrated book offers a fascinating account of Chanel's evolution and innovation. Detailed photographs and sketches of her designs, along with fashion photography and catwalk shots, pay tribute to one of the world's most highly regarded fashion houses and the woman behind it.

lovely words from our customers

I’m so in love with my Peggy and Twig earrings! I’ve brought the Audrey and the Layla earrings and they just compliment everything I wear! Whether I’m popping out for a coffee or attending a wedding, my earrings just add that final touch to my outfit.

I love my Peggy and Twig pearls. I have both the Rose Studs and the Clementine and equally love them both, so much so that sometimes I wear both of them at the same time. They are comfortable in my ears and the always add an extra element of elegance. Thank you! Also they are affordable! Can’t wait to one day by one of your bigger pieces! 🥰

I absolutely adore my collection of ‘Peggy and Twig’ earrings. They are Timeless, Classy and Elegant. The perfect addition to any jewellery box and outfit. What makes me love the earrings even more is that fact that the purchase supports a small, rural business. I can’t wait to add to my little collection. My collection: Ava, Bobbie, Nina. Rachel.

I am a huge fan of your beautiful earrings. I have a set of the Rose studs which I wear almost everyday. They are my absolute favourite! I'm forever getting compliments about them. I also have a set of the Clementine drop earrings which I love for dressing up. They are so elegant yet understated. I hope to add to my collection too as they are all so beautiful!

I can’t begin to express how much I love the style and creativity of Peggy & Twig’s pearl earrings!!! I love them so much, I bought 3 pairs in my first order. I purchased the Layla, Skye and clementine styles and wear one of these three daily. Each piece is a classy, unique, statement that gets recognised by others, often asking me ‘where are those earrings from?’ The attention to detail Em puts in to creating each piece is outstanding and I would highly recommend Peggy & Twig jewellery to everyone. Thank you for making such beautiful creations, Em.
