It used to be that when little girls learned their ABCs, they identified simple one-syllable words like ant, boat and coat. Not anymore! Seems the fashion bug is catching girls at younger and younger ages so that many teen girls today can now correctly pronounce (and spell!) Alaia, Balenciaga and, of course, Chanel–the Holy Grail.

While little girls might have once dreamed of castles and princes who would ride to their rescue, the new fairy tale involves gargantuan closets, personal stylists and hangers that hold beauties like today’s VPOD.

This 1950s outfit by Chanel will tickle you pink (although cherry, tangerine, white and caramel help to round out the boucle tweed). It includes a pleated skirt but the piece de resistance is the fabulous coat with its patch pockets and plenty of decorative, and functional, buttons.

It’s a fashion dream come true for a vintage fashionista!
