PINK PINK PINK. It can't hurt? Pictures from a stroll down rue Dauphine in the 6th arrondissement. Full of pinkness like these giant pink meringues. Or a pink wedding cake. From Amuzilo, 34 rue Dauphine, a kid's toy shop with mostly pink things. Boys, go somewhere else! Pink twirling silliness.
Silly dogs in pink chapeau..
From the Salon du Chocolat, piles of pink nougat - framboise or fraise? Doesn't anyone need pink ink/l'encre rose?
YES!
For grownups on 26, rue Vavin in the 7th - Baby pink cashmeres from Eric Bompard - miam
Why can't grownups have bracelets like this?
Or pink purses like this? All from Amuzilo, Jouets d'enfant au ♥ de Paris Well at least wecan have baby pink macaron. Well we could if we're in Paris!
Hmmm..
BONNE JOURNEE !

Isn't that an anniversary cake for OLIVER PEOPLES?? It would make a nice wedding cake too...
My favorite color. I think Paris has a lot more pink than say NY or LA. Or maybe I just notice it more there. Any more news on your possible move to Paris? I love the pink doggie hat. My Syndey-Marie would look very fetching in that!
Venetians and Parisians seem to have a love affair with giant meringues. I am always looking for somebody buying one of those giant egg white clouds, so far without success. The day I catch somebody in the act, I shall how in the world they are going to go about eating it! ;-)
This reminds me of how persnickety Parisians can be about their color spectrum, something I learned when I went to my dry cleaners to pick up a sweater that I described to the patronne as "rose". The patronne searched her stacks of neatly folded vetements until she located my ticket number and plopped my "rose" sweater down on the counter. She stabbed at it with her finger and gave me a very stern and exasperated look. "Ca n e'est pas ROSE," she informed me; "That's MAUVE."
I still hear her voice every time I lay eyes on that brooding, violetish tone of pink.
Love your opening watercolor! A lot of pink in there :) I've always thought of it as a sexy color, as in Valentine's Day and undies - not that I dwell on such things..... Love your closing shot, too!
