Paris Mon Amour | Galeries Lafayette

 

This is fun!

For those of us left in Paris for August, Galeries Lafayette has sent us an early valentine❤️

The a love ❤️ letter 💌full of all the good things ‘made in Paris’.

Hanging from the rafters inside, an Ace of hearts, which traditionally is the card of love, happiness and celebrations 🥂🍾

Lots of Eiffel Towers in the windows definitely works for me.

I saw the signs all over town and in the Metro, ‘Paris, Mon Amour’ and wondered what’s going on?

A call to buy Paris-made goodies is what’s going on.

Like these Confiture Parisienne. I got a pretty jar during my strawberry obsession.

I was going to call this post ‘Desserts, Mon Amour’ since most of you are happy 🤸🏾‍♀️to see more desserts…

Or ‘Framboise, Mon Amour’…

This week I went to a local boulangerie who usually has nice little blueberry/myrtille 🫐 tartes but they were out. I got the framboise version of Yan Couvreur’s piled high tarte but it did not look like this.

More like this…

I thought I should taste le vrai chose/the real thing. But Couvreur has moved on. He no longer makes his famous architecturally-arranged framboise tarte because everyone else is. Now he’s doing piled high blueberries/myrtille 🫐

Here’s a Galeries Lafayette funny version of the famous whipped creamy, Riviera tarte, ‘la tropezienne‘ but shaped like an Eiffel Tower.

Naturally there are Metro seats in Galeries Lafayette’s window…with Paris Opera reflections.

Naturally, our favorite Luxembourg chairs are in their windows.

I put together a new 6-pack of Eiffel Towers for you.

And a new bunch of delicious(I know. I ate em) berry 🫐 tarte watercolors to taste now in my etsy shop.

All ‘Made in Paris’! Please share with a friend 🐻🐝🫐

Bon Wednesday PBers XOXO❤️💋🇫🇷
