Last January you will remember that Mary, Peter and I visited Shauna von Giesbrecht's beautiful jewelry and textile shop in Montmartre. In addition to her original jewelry that she handcrafts, she also offers some gorgeous handwoven textile designs. This red scarf in the window was almost more than I could resist. I'm hoping that one day I'll have this, or a similar one wrapped around my neck in Paris!

Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

A beautiful item to keep you warm in Paris Virginia.
Costas
Comme les jeans : neuve et abimée. C'est la mode.
Oh! so classy - and it comes in your colour Virginia - a must have when next in Paris!
Beautiful, bright, bold RED creation! It's really artsy fartsy, V de B!
Bon weekend
She definitely had some delightful concoctions in her atelier ... I may succumb to temptation when next in Paris if she still has the teal woven jacket ... I just didn't want to take that one off! However, my dollars couldn't match her euros.
I love scarves .. that one is quite fabulous
Such a beautiful color - alive and warm.
Une superbe pièce, similaire à une oeuvre d'art...
gros bisous
One of kind, I imagine. Oui? You'd turn lots of French heads in that creation, V! (And even more American ones if you wore it here)
If you buy it, you will always have Paris Rouge wherever you are.
Hmm, I'm not sure it's my style. Of course, the red does match my eyes...
JUST MAGNIFICENT!!!!!!!! Anita
How smart of you to take a photo of that scarf! Just fantastic and I am hoping too that you will someday be able to own it..I have a friend who also makes scarves so that I am going to steal your idea of photgraphing them...thanks!
Hi Virginia,
Such a beautiful scarf and in your colour! Do hope that one day you will be wearing a fabulous scarf just like this one.
Happy weekend
Hugs
Carolyn
Well, it is YOUR rouge color. C'mon, girl, treat yourself. You deserve it.
That scarf is GORGEOUS. I am a sucker for a scarf or pashmina...I have many....and I live in a climate where I can only wear them for about a month± out of the year!
