Coco Chanel 女士為時裝開創了許多經典，她不只是時尚先驅，帶點叛逆的顛覆精神更是成為許多人的人生哲學與創作繆思，她的名言思想，不論經過幾百年仍然受用，每讀一次都當頭棒喝。
就算你不是菱格紋的粉絲，也沒有特別著迷山茶花，但讀完過 Chanel 的文字，你會更懂何為「女人」的價值，我們漂亮，同時還發光發熱。
“
1. 父母給予你 20 歲的臉蛋，人生形塑你 30 歲的容貌，但 50 歲的外貌由你自己決定。
Nature gives you the face you have at twenty. Life shapes the face you have at thirty. But at fifty you get the face you deserve.
“
2. 你可以在30歲時活得燦爛，40歲時活得迷人，並把餘生活得令人難以抗拒。
You can be gorgeous at thirty, charming at forty, and irresistible for the rest of your life.
“
3. 沒有時間讓你做一成不變又單調的事，因為時間是用來工作與戀愛的。
There is no time for cut-and-dried monotony. There is time for work. And time for love. That leaves no other time.
“
4. 每個女孩都該做到兩點：有品味跟光芒四射。
A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.
“
5. 想要無可取代，就必須與眾不同。
In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different.
“
6. 你只能活一次，所以一定要活得精彩。
You live but once; you might as well be amusing.
“
7. 無法理解為什麼一個女人可以毫不修飾就走出家門，哪怕出於禮貌也該打扮一下。
而且，永遠也無法預料，也許某一天就是她與真命天子約會的日子。
為了自己的真命天子，盡可能越漂亮越好。
I don’t understand how a woman can leave the house without fixing herself up a little – if only out of politeness.
And then, you never know, maybe that’s the day she has a date with destiny.
And it’s best to be as pretty as possible for destiny.
“
8. 穿好你的高跟鞋，維持你的高標準。
Keep your heels, head, and standards high.
“
9. 最有勇氣的行為就是替自己著想。
The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud.
“
10. 每天都要盛裝打扮，就像你準備去見敵人一樣。
Dress like you are going to meet your worst enemy today."
“
11. 打扮不體面，人們會記得那件衣服；穿著無可挑剔，人們會記得身穿那件衣服的女人。
"Dress shabbily and they remember the dress; dress impeccably and they remember the woman."
“
12. 我的人生不如我所願，所以我創造自己的人生。
My life didn't please me, so I created my life.
“
13. 如果感到難過，就塗上口紅然後起身反擊。
If you're sad, add more lipstick and attack.
“
14. 不要浪費時間猛敲那道不破的牆，想辦法把它變成一道門。
Don’t spend time beating on a wall, hoping to transform it into a door.
“
15. 優雅，是懂得拒絕
Elegance is refusal.
