I have no idea. This is a chi chi little shop at the Place des Vosges. I wandered in and was overcome. Made a teensy bit of an impulse buy, which turned out to be a much appreciated birthday gift. Très bonne!
I'd like to venture a guess about this number mystery. looks more like 13 because of the one above the three. Perhaps it's a cute way of displaying the address number for "Popy Moreni Boutique, 13 Place Vosges, 75004 Paris"?
I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
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.

Je sais pas! How ever did you get this in your suitcase?
Cool Eiffel Tower! One can never have too many Eiffel Towers!
above the 3 is a 1 .. now I am even more curious
Thirteen maybe?? It's a mystery Virginia, I love 'teensy impulse' buys, they can sometimes turn out to be just the right thing!
Could fill a house with interesting finds.
Those flashing replicas of la Tour Eiffel were every where.
Pourquoi pas?
Very nice, Virginia. My birthday was last week. Did you send my gift by UPS or Federal Express?
Don't know what your "gift" was (this??), but I would have been tempted by this ET (for my collection, tu sais) that also features my lucky number.
Why didn't you put on your best French accent et demander "Pour quoi le numéro treize?"
