I saw the movie about Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel; it was a kind of sad story about her, especially when she lost her male business owner/friend (twice) but I admired how she always tried to stay strong, moved on and kept her business going. She had such great flair in designing two piece suites for women and Chanel No. 5 perfume smells great too.
