Yesterday I took a break from arm-wrestling the September Paris Map to go Uptown…yes I know it’s 30 Septembre, but I’ve been arm wrestling đ€Œ♀️ all week with Ines…
It’s PWF (Paris Fashion Week). I hate missing out on what’s going on. Dior is showing bubble skirts evidently…
Little boxes, little boxes..who doesn’t love❤️Little boxes Filled with deluxe Parisian chocolates like these from Patrick Roger.
Does this say Portugal to you? It does to me.Another weekend in Paris, another foodie festival. One has to go right?
Palais Galliera celebrates Frida Kahlo (1907-1954), one of the most recognized and influential artists of the 20th century. I was going to post on Frida on Thursday. Then I fell down the rabbit hole of Paris chocolates and fashion windows.
The Kahlo exhibition is the first in Paris to focus more on her image and clothing collections and their influence than her paintings. It’s a way to understand how she built an identity by how she presented herself and represented herself in her own paintings.
Do you like to lechĂ©-vitrines/windowshop when in Paris? Last night I went to see some Fall windows. Is Printemps still in love with Squid Green or maybe that’s their brand color?
This past weekend was the annual big event in France in September. Journees du Europeanees Patrimoine, when many private and public institutions, including the Elysées Palais (you must reserve way in advance for the Elysees) open their doors to public viewing.On Sunday I went to les Garde Republicaines, 5 minutes from my house, on boulevard Henri IV. They did not require reservations. Attendees dress accordingly like this woman in red jacket and navy pants to co-ordinate with the garde.
The 3-day fete Le MarchĂ© Flottants is back this weekendđđ„after for missing for 2 years at quai de Montibello across from Notre Dame.
One of the most fun foodie fetes in Paris along the Seine.
It took me longer to taste the real jam.
Yesterday we (Solli_K, PBer Carolyn and myself) took the 7:20 train to Colmar, just 20 minutes south of Strasbourg.Another one France’s “La Petite Venices”.
I missed International Cat day by a month on August 8.
Celebrating cats should be an everyday event.
