Galeries Lafayette........magnifique!


I adore the way Galeries Layfayette drapes herself in these fabulous lights every Christmas. For me it's the Paris show stopper of the season!

    I usually don't like masses of lights used as decoration, but this is breathtakingly beautiful.
    Seasons greetings.

    It certainly would generate a bit of warmth. Are you going to family on Sunday or are they coming to you?

    How fabulous would it be to go for a stroll, turn the corner and be confronted with this light extravaganza.

    It really is quite beautiful and exotic, but it's not reminiscent of Christmas. Every time I see it (and it has been there for years) I think of India or the Orient, not Christmas.
