Musée avec vue
In my opinion, one of the best kept secrets in Paris is Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine (architecture and monument museum). Located near the Palais de Chaillot, it's most convenient when visiting la Tour Eiffel. As you can see, this museum offers commanding views but it is without a doubt a must see on your next visit.

Les letteres d'alphabet
Merci is one of my favorite shops in Paris. Always full of quirky items for the home, clothing, and an assortment of letters, large and small.

Sunday Afternoon at the Bois de Boulogne
The Bois de Boulogne is a very beautiful place. There are so many things to see and do here. If you're in Paris long enough, you should explore!

Paris jaune - Fondation Louis Vuitton
I visited the fabulous Fondation Louis Vuitton in 2016. I'd like to share a few more photographs from that trip with you this week. It took me several visits to Paris to finally get there, but it was well worth the effort. I highly recommend if you have time on your next trip to Paris.
Today I finally rejoin James' Weekend Reflections. Click HERE to see all the other wonderful images.

Pour le bébé
Our first trip to Paris as we wandered behind the Musée d'Orsay, we stumbled upon, Bonpoint, a gorgeous shop. I've never forgotten the beautiful baby clothes pressed between glass, hanging in the window. To me this said, "Paris."

Livres anciens
I've passed Cabinet Chaptal many times, as it is located on the corner just across the street from Jardin du Luxembourg. I'm not sure it's ever been open when I peered in, so I"ve just taken shots through the bars across the windows. I hope one day to go in and have a long look. Maybe I'll be lucky, and they will allow photos.

Musée de la mode
For years, when we walked by, I always pressed my nose against the gate hoping one day this beautiful museum would open again. Well, the good news it is it reopened in September 2013, and we were able to tour an exhibit that November. Formally called the Musée de la mode de la ville de Paris, it's known as the Palais Galleria. Of note, it is only open for temporary fashion exhibits, so please check the website before you go. Located near the Contemporary Museum and Palais Tokyo, it's worth a short walk. A fashion museum in Paris. How perfect.

Notre rue
For a number of years, I've stayed in a lovely apartment on rue du Cherche-Midi in the 6th arrondissement. I think so often we just march down the streets without looking up. I'm happy I looked up this day.
If you'd like more information about this apartment, please email me.

En construction - à venir
Sadly, my first visit to Paris in 2007 was after the grand magasin, La Samaritaine, had already closed so I never experienced her former glory. This last trip, I was thrilled to see that she is now under renovations. Click here to see what's planned. Built in 1869, this Art Deco beauty will be brought back to life in new and exciting ways. The reopening is planned for 2018, so I"m hoping to see it!

Paris Photo 2017
If you are in Paris the second weekend in November, you must see Paris Photo. Held in the Grand Palais for three days, it's well worth the 30 euros! I FINALLY was able to see it this last trip. It's an amazing visual overload of photography. So worth it.
