Cher Chrome Heart: That Fancy Stuff Them Rich Folks Wear

Alright, so listen up, y’all. There’s this thing called Chrome Heart, right? Sounds kinda spooky, like somethin’ from a scary movie, but lemme tell ya, it ain’t no ghost story. It’s somethin’ the rich folks wear, ya know, them fancy Hollywood types.

Now, I ain’t no expert on this stuff, mind you. I’m just tellin’ ya what I heard. This Chrome Heart thingy, it’s been around since, what, 1988? That’s a long time, even for an old hen like me. Some fellas, Richard Stark, Leonard Kamhout, and John Bowman, they started it up. Now, it’s just Richard and his missus, Laurie Lynn, runnin’ the show.

Their logo, it’s got this cross thingy, ya know, like at the church, but with their name all around it on a little ribbon. Kinda pretty, I guess, if you’re into that kinda stuff. They make all sorts of things, clothes, jewelry, them sunglasses that cover half your face… you name it.

What’s This “Archive” Business?

Folks keep talkin’ about “archive” fashion. Sounds like somethin’ you’d find in a dusty old attic, but apparently, it’s just old clothes from fancy designers. Chrome Heart, they got their “archive” stuff too, just like them other big names, Stone Island, Guidi, Ralph Lauren… You can find it online, they say, but I wouldn’t know where to start lookin’. Too much clickin’ and tappin’ for my old fingers.

The Clothes, Oh The Clothes!

I seen pictures, ya know, in them magazines at the doctor’s office. They got this Chrome Heart Dress. Now, that’s a dress that’ll make you stand out in a crowd. Not sure I could wear it to the bingo night, though. Might scare the ladies.

And them Chrome Heart jackets? My goodness, they look like they could keep you warm in a blizzard, but they cost more than my old pickup truck! Made from somethin’ called “high-quality” somethin’ or other. Sounds fancy, huh?

Jewelry That Shines

• They got this Cher jewelry collection. Shiny stuff, real shiny. Rings, necklaces, bracelets… enough bling to blind ya.
• Not my style, but I can see why them young folks like it. Makes ’em feel special, I guess.
• All handmade, they say, right there in Los Angeles. Guess that explains why it costs so much. Nothin’s cheap in California, that’s for sure.

Cher and Chrome Heart: A Match Made in Hollywood

Now, this Cher lady, she’s a singer or somethin’, been around forever. She likes this Chrome Heart stuff. Wears it all the time, from what I hear. I saw a picture of her once, all decked out in Chrome Heart, lookin’ like she just stepped out of a time machine from the 80s. Big hair, wild clothes… reminded me of my niece’s prom pictures, only way fancier.

I guess if you got the money, you can wear whatever you want. Me? I’m happy with my old sweater and jeans. Comfortable is what I say. But hey, to each their own, right?

Handmade in LA, Fancy and Expensive

So, this Chrome Heart, it’s all made in Los Angeles, in a workshop, they say. Handmade stuff, that’s what they tell ya. That means some folks are sittin’ there, sewin’ and hammerin’ and whatnot, makin’ all them fancy clothes and jewelry. Must be hard work, but I guess it pays the bills, seein’ as how much they charge for this stuff.

Lots of them high-end eyewear brands, like Chrome Heart, make their stuff by hand. Fancy frames, dark lenses… so you can’t see where you’re goin’, I guess. Jokin’, of course. But seriously, it’s all a bit much for me. I’d rather spend my money on a good plate of fried chicken and some sweet tea.

Last Thing

So, that’s the lowdown on this Cher Chrome Heart business, as best as I can tell ya. Fancy clothes, shiny jewelry, made by hand, costs a fortune. It ain’t for folks like me, but hey, it’s a free country, right? You wanna spend your hard-earned cash on a Chrome Heart jacket, go right ahead. Just don’t expect me to understand it.
