Bienvenue !



We have been fortunate that for the  last few years, our flat and our Metro stop was near this beautiful store. We especially love the convenience of La Grande Epicerie next door.

Of course Parisian tigers wear scarves!

I've been offline for a while due to some computer issues. Thank you for continuing to follow my blog!

Été au Bois

If you've never visited Paris with children then more than likely you have never experienced le Jardin d'Acclimatation! Located in the Bois de Bologne, it's a delightful place to spend the day with les enfants. It combines a charming little amusement park, boat rides, gardens, petting zoo and a playground with many activities for all ages. This climbing structure looked like la Tour Eiffel to us. Try and calculate how high it goes. The French have a more lenient approach to playgrounds!

Lêche - vitrine Palais Royal III


Today the delightful toy shop at the Palais Royal. I'd be willing to bet that there's not one toy inside that requires batteries!

Lêche-vitrine au Palais Royal II


The light and shadows playing on the wall were as eye catching as the jewelry in this boutique.

Lêche-vitrine au Palais Royal I


Today we begin another mini series, Window Shopping at the Palais Royal. Lêche-vitrine is the French for window shopping and literally translates to "lick the window"! The chi chi shops at the Palais Royal certainly have that effect on me!

Today, my favorite, Didier Ludot. Here you will find the most divine vintage couture items. The window always catches my eye.
