Blake Lively's Chanel Mademoiselle Ad Released

Mon Dieu! Chanel’s newest face, Gossip Girl star Blake Lively, is a (double!) vision in her new advertisement for the brand’s Mademoiselle handbags, released Monday. Shot by Chanel’s Karl Lagerfeld in the company’s Parisian headquarters, the photos are the first in a series that will appear in April magazines. 

Lively’s new role was announced in January, when Lagerfeld called her “kind of an American dream girl.” The actress was humbled, saying the opportunity to front the campaign was more than a “dream come true.” After the photo shoot, an in-awe Lively whipped out her cell phone and shot her own picture — this one of Lagerfeld behind the lens, reports WWD. 

“I have such a respect for fashion and such an appreciation for it that if there are people like Karl Lagerfeld out there designing, who am I?” she told the publication. “I want to bow down to them and be a representative for them if they’ll have me.” Seems that adoration has paid off!

Blake Lively: The New Face Of Chanel Handbags

Gossip Girl beauty Blake Lively has apparently been handpicked by Karl Lagerfield to front Chanel's new handbag campaign, following in the footsteps of Lily Allen, Diane Kruger and Nicole Kidman.

After months of speculation, the 23-year-old actress is set to appear in a new advertising campaign for the mega-brand's highly sought-after Mademoiselle handbag line.

According to reports, Lagerfield shot the starlet himself on the iconic staircase in Coco Chanel's Rue de Cambon studio in Paris.

And if that wasn't enough to make Blake feel like THE golden girl of the moment, then news that he described her as "a kind of American dream girl" sure will.

"[The shoot] was an easy job because everyone fell in love with her," he said.
