It’s a little sad how excited I’ve been to share this image with you. This is the famous Coco Chanel quote, “To be irreplaceable, you must be different.” I spotted this in the window of the Chanel jewelry store in the Place Vendôme. See the little pieces of curled gold metal? These were attached to a white wall behind the window, and from afar, it looked like some weird, abstract metal art installation. Come a little closer to the display, and you see a light shining just above it. The shadow cast from the light hitting the curved pieces of metal create the quote. I thought it was the coolest thing I’d seen in a long time.
Truly different, totally irreplaceable. I hope this inspires you today!
this is awesome.
Such a great window and sentiment! Hope it’s a good week, Victoria
Oh my gosh that is absolutely amazing! How beautiful.
What a wonderful find, hope you have a great day Victoria!

I saw this on instagram recently—it’s amazing!! My sorority in college had shirts that said “in order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different”. I’ve always loved those words.
Gorgeous capture. And inspiring, to boot!
I saw that Chanel dressing window in Sydney. Amazingly beautiful in both the words and the art.
I am looking for if I can purchase it for my house
