Last Minute Paris Shopping

 

Yesterday I went looking for gluten-free pain d’épice (on assignment)

I think it doesn’t exist

But everyone was out hunting for something or other.

So I just took pictures…

Poor mommy trying to make decisions 

At Chanel

Iwas mostly in Galeries Lafayette 

With the grandest tree

The shiniest lights.

The shiniest outfits

The shiniest, bronzy Büche de Noël from Dalloyau

Under a thin shell of chocolate, a hazelnut and vanilla mousse from Tahiti, biscuit flavored with muscovado sugar, creamy Piedmont hazelnut and its heart flowing hazelnut praline, all on a crispy caramelized dried fruits/Sous une fine coque de chocolat, une mousse noisette et vanille de Tahiti, biscuit parfumé au sucre muscovado, crémeux noisette du Piémont et son cœur coulant praliné noisette, le tout sur un croustillant de fruits secs caramélisés. Pour 6 personnes Yum Yum

With the most kids

With maybe the best windows

For the kids

I am a big fan of Galerie Lafayette Gourmet

For browsing seasonal pastries 

(I only browsed yesterday🤸🏾‍♀️) 

Maybe I was still full from celebrating darling Solli’s birthday at Berthillon on Wednesday. 

They have the best tarte Tatin in town by the way (a well-kept secret). 

Berthillon’s salon de thé 

Is the downtown Angelina without the long lines and long wait.
