Adorable non?
In fact everything they have is pretty adorable non?
The French bonbon baby T-shirts are to die for...
Just like these bonbons I wrote about...
More French bonbons as a necklace/collier and as a bag/sac too!
Doesn't this mignon collier look very much like...
These chocolate macaron-style bonbons... 
Hmmmm...yesterday Carol said...ok, love the...macaron shopping bags, and the colors are fabulous but...in all politesse...can we move on a bit, I feel as if we are in macaron morass...so here is a SARDINE BELT especially for Carol.
Oh and a broccali bag too for Carol and other non-lovers of Paris macarons.
And more of photographer FULVIO BONAVIA's Kiwi watch...
And a raspberry for Carol!
I immediately donned my new T-shirt and went into patisserie SECCO to get a sandwich. The girl behind the counter asked me, "Where did you get your T-shirt? In Paris.."
Here is today's Parisen dog. I had a lovely Berger Belge for 13 unforgettable years - dear Rudi. He understood French. I'm sure he would love Paris macarons. If you're tired of all the macaronerie on PB please comment.

Was it Karmic Destine that we meet - this T-shirt and I?

BONJOUR Paris MACARONS!
I'd suggest the Betty Ford clinic for Macaron addiction. But I'd have to say, if you're going to get addicted, this is your best bet. Delicious breakfast once again... Merci!
ReplyDeleteYour photography is splendid but I miss your watercolors very much.

You know I love every single Paris Breakfasts' you send to me. Today's especially brightened my day ... I LOVE COLOR! I'll be happy all day long! :)
ReplyDeleteBon
I love the macaroon tee shirt and necklace--
ReplyDeleteBest,
Melanie
CHARLES: the watercolors are coming soon. But I have to get my sea legs back from ze jet lag!
ReplyDeleteAh, Carol! Ever the spotter of fun trends--love that t-shirt. It's perfect for you. How about your own zazzle PB macaron t-shirts, though!!? They're gorgeous and unique! Love the broccoli bag. How funny.
ReplyDeleteCan you freeze macarons? I would doubt it, but maybe? Do you know I have never had one? I didn't eat any when I was in France, and I've never had one since then. I'm a deprived child.
ReplyDeleteI happened on your blog and really enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day!
What on earth do people who do not have an obsession such as you with your macarons do for fun???? That is the question of the day. Everyone should have an obsession and it truly should have something to do with France.
ReplyDeleteI love macarons! They're one of the things I miss most about Paris. Yum!
ReplyDeleteTres bien; merci, ma chere! J'attends les aquarelles nouvelle.
ReplyDeleteM Baker
Bring on the Macaronerie, I am loving it! Great t-shirt I love it.
ReplyDeleteCan you do some boulongerie shots, baguettes, croissants and the like? Merci

I love waking up to your blog...more on what people are wearing in the streets
ReplyDeleteHi Ms. Carol G,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your blog -- it gives
me a lift every day.
I do love the flower t-shirt, but I'll wait so I won't bombard Anne Maisonneuve. Do you know how much it costs?
Re the blog you did on Paris Signs:
The chairman of my dept. teaches
typography and he loved it. We both
are wondering if you could do another
one with all printed signs. He's especially
interested in the use of Helvetica type.
But we'll love any signs you can find.
I hope you have the time to do it.
Merci encore une fois et bonne weekend!

Don't even think about not having Parisian Macarons in your blog! I don't know who this Carol is but, she needs to chill out. You keep on having everything Parisian which includes Parisian Macarons! That's part of being ParisBreakfast!
ReplyDeleteObsessions come and go, like any trend. I'm not tired of your macarons post because I'm amazed how much can be said about them to begin with! Such is love! All of your posts provide me with a smile everyday! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAdorable t-shirt!
ReplyDeleteCheri Carol, You are hereby limited to one macaron per day! I admit it; I'm a little bored with the plethora of macarons, mon ami. Your lovely paintings of Paris, cultural elements (the Paris straight-legged walk, art shows, for example), the J R terrier dogs, big purses, photos & paintings of Le Metro, plates of interesting food in restaurants, daily color schemes, golden snails, piglets, art deco store-fronts, etc., were all a visual delight! I was about to move to Paris!
ReplyDeleteBest Regards,
Elizabeth
I'll never get tired of Parisian macarons! I can't eat wheat, and these cookies make life worth living!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work!
Susan
You could always make yr own T-shirts...
ReplyDeletehttp://www.ehow.com/how_15133_print-t-shirt.html
I'd suggest you take a photo of your fav original art and make a
transfer to t-shirt from that. (Just a little marketing suggestion, there)
I've occasionally thought that some of your watercolors would do well
silkscreened. Think bout it here
There ARE people who will do any of this for you. Try
yellowpages.com to locate some of them--or just Google away at it.
OR
every photocopy shop I've been in in ages and ages has t-shirt
printing offers pasted to the wall. haul in your disc or flash and
a shirt and let them try it. I'd go for the pink Paris painted
pooch. How about an odd angled snap of the tower--perhaps perched
on a macaron?

Merci mille fois - I was in that store in May 05 and then never could find it again until I remember that I started a journal for that trip. Just wanted to make sure that there wasn't a 2nd location that I didn't know about. One more question.
ReplyDeleteDo they sell the macaron bags at ALL Laduree locations? Must have one of those!
I will be there 6/9-6/12 for a short hop...

The macarons are fun...as are the colors of Paris. When I go to Paris, my friends at home are interested in reading glasses and glasses frames.
ReplyDeleteI stay in the Marais which I think must be the capital of optical shops in Paris. I have found very cheap cheaters at pharmacies and Trait (gt. papeterie, 5e). "Incidence" (also 5e) is another must visit shop for those who love practical items with French writing on them (totes, etc.)
Great for checks, polka dots, etc.I take photos of all the cool glasses frames in the opticians' windows for my friends. Maybe this is too "old" for your demographic...but my U.S. friends are always fascinated by the cool frames. I even found one frame inspired by the laces on a corset (what could be more French!).
Tie-in? Need a pair of specs to read the newspaper at b'fast??
Love your blog.
Elizabeth
BRAVO!!
ReplyDeletele Tee shirt ouuuuuhhh
manon
When a woman is tired of macarons she is tired of life....
ReplyDelete(apologies to Samuel Johnson)
J'aime beaucoup les macarons! Toujours, toujours!!!
ReplyDeleteHi! I`ve given you an award because i think your blog is unique! You can find it on my blog! Hugs from AK
ReplyDeleteI must have the chocolate macaron-style bonbons.
ReplyDeleteMUST MUST RIGHT NOW
And I was crazy for those big shopping totes in the window.
ReplyDeleteGreetings,
ReplyDeleteLOVE your site. I live in (lovely) petite town (Ojai, CA) and when I get those small town blues, your PB cheers me up awfully!
But I have always adored Napoleon pastry. Are they considered v declasse? Could you do some of your fabulously meticulous research on them one of these days?
Warm regards, and keep up the great work.
Yours,
Ladye Eugenia
Macarons forever !!!!! We never get tired of them.
ReplyDeleteHow could a PB reader be tired of macarons! I love your pastry explorations.
ReplyDeleteCould never get tired of anything Paris or French related..... I live near St. Louis, Mo. and get my Macaron fix at restaurant La Bonne Bouchee...... So Macaron on Girl...!!!!! Marty
ReplyDeleteMacaron madness and I love it! Oh la la to more macaron news. I was so happy to find real macarons from Paris at Ballotin Chocolates in Newburyport, Massachusetts (www.ballotinchocolates.com and yes they do send!)this spring, making our Easter Paris-complete, with limoge celadon and pastel macarons. Oui oui and merci, merci - keep the delights coming!
ReplyDeleteJeanne Marie
Where are your lovely watercolors? Still no new ones after your last trip? I miss them so much. The photos are great...but your splashes of colorful storefronts, metro stations, etc. are totally unique. My life is grayer without them. When are you gonna post some?
ReplyDeleteMary
wonderful post...and the tees are soo cute :)
ReplyDeletei was surprised to learn how tiny the macarons were...less than or about 1 inch in diameter? smaller than an oreo. have you ever made any? how did they come out? curious.
Thank you so much for being a fabulous blogger.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy all treats posted, both shopping and food opts.
My trip to Tokyo was postponed due to quarantine possibilities, so no Laduree etc. until Fall.
Meanwhile, there is on line shopping!!
May I just ask if the T shirt you bought is similar in American size, say for instance, the Medium would be the same.
In my experience, European sizes run a bit smaller.
Much appreciate this..
Best,
Bobo
Never too many macarons, Carol! ! !
ReplyDeleteThat is my vote in the grand election!
Your blog is wonderful. It has been helpful with my delightful anticipation
oui, c'est plus qu'il n'en faut--how about some more ideas in the bracelets and necklaces line--
ReplyDeleteYum
ReplyDeleteWe are leaving for an anniversary celebration Fri.! by happenstance, my OLD FAITHFUL trenchcoat is RED! I was excited to read the blog about red red red in Paris!!
I appreciate all your wonderful photos and comments.
merci g.
Bonne macaron a vous!
ReplyDeleteWe are sitting in our little apartment on our little street in the Marais eating the last of the Pierre Herme caramel macs....
yum
Carol, do what you love & love what you do, it's all fab. You're posts take me all over, vicariously and emotionally. You can't ask for more. I'm missing my Skrappy really BIG again now --- and your Rudi...:(
ReplyDeleteToday's Parisien chien is beautiful :)
Oh I love love your photographs so much. Mmmm ,they make me hungry too! Love the broccoli bag and le chien and the t-shirts. Blissful.
ReplyDeleteNon, non, J'adore les macarons. I think your e-mails are so charming--and I have just become more "hung up" on macarons since I discovered you! I look forward to your blog e-mails. I relish them, but I live in Portland, Oregon, where it is hard to come by macarons--but not impossible!
ReplyDeletemerci,
Loni
Pour les hommes aussi?
ReplyDeleteSuper le teeshirt! Moi j'adore les macarons alors...:)
ReplyDeleteI can never get tired of Macarons!
ReplyDeleteHe who is tired of macarons is tired of life!
ReplyDeleteI have a macaron shirt just like yours and it always draws fun comments. Love your blog--it inspires me every day!
ReplyDeleteLet's give the macarons a break for now... More street wear, please! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteHi, I have loved all the macaron pictures etc. Can't get enough of them myself. I especially liked the broccali and berry bags and the kiwi watch. Such healthy things to eat!! Who needs them when you have macarons! We!
ReplyDeleteWhatever you write about will be interesting.
ReplyDeleteI loved the purses and the belt.

I had the previlege to see you with you red shoes; too bad I missed you with the macaron teeshirt AND the red shoes!
ReplyDelete(Well, someone already asked, but where are your paintings?)
Love the T shirts and the pink colors.
ReplyDeleteSorry, madame,
