I love the Zadig & Voltaire boutique and yes, every Parisian lady shops at Le Comptoires des Contonniers! When I worked at Nestlé France, all the 20 & 30 somethings always highly recommended that shop.

Look out for dresses for posh places at night as its the empress design lots of gathers from the bust line a if your budget doesn't reach that all you do is wear a belt under the bust line over a summer dress and your right in fashion, nearly forgot, shoes laced up to the ankle, very high with platforms but the toes have to be out,<BR/>JillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-74967293435752532462008-11-06T14:55:00.000-05:002008-11-06T14:55:00.000-05:00Many thanks for today's blog on Paris fashion.

I'm planning to spend the entire month of April in Paris, taking art and language classes, for my "big" birthday. <BR/>What on earth do Parisian women wear on their feet in the rain? I'm sure they wouldn't be caught dead in the big clunky rain boots found in the US, and I wouldn't want to use up so much of my suitcase packing them anyway.<BR/>Also, do you know of anyone wonderful who teaches painting in Paris? I'm mostly a watercolorist, but took a class in Provence in oil using a palette knife. Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.<BR/>Thanks so much for your newsletter.....it always makes me happy to get a taste of Paris and your artwork!<BR/>JanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-31757354794415482072008-11-06T11:04:00.000-05:002008-11-06T11:04:00.000-05:00The purple tote at Le Petites is adorable - and wh...The purple tote at Le Petites is adorable - and what trend for the shoes Carol... high, low - pointy toe, round or square?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-63115944334534648752008-11-06T10:54:00.000-05:002008-11-06T10:54:00.000-05:00Thank you so much Carol.

She is obviously a trend setter. <BR/><BR/>Carla also made ballet flats very popular this year (which makes me happy as well because I am taller than average, and no longer in my twenties, so these are the perfect shoes for me...)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
