Think Blanche for La Rentrée

 

On Tuesday I did a little browsing for you at Merci in the Marais

WHITE is IN for Fall 🤔 for la RENTRÉE. Merci ‘immerses you in an entirely white universe.’

Palmiers, Bon Marché Paris-Paris! Little Red Paintbox

 

After all the PALMIER comments on Friday, I was ready to switch horses & draw ✍️ a Paris Palmier 🗺️ map

So yesterday l left the house early (11:30) to get a research 🔬 palmier at Boulanger de la Tour (3,30€). Their palmier is #5 best in Paris and a mere 4 minute walk from my house. 

Paris Letters - Montmartre or Jardin du Luxembourg

 

Wrestling with the monthly bear 🐻 again creating the latest Paris Letter.

Last Saturday I went to meetup with the ‘Cinema in Montmartre’ tour at Metro Caulaincourt Lamarck but…“The best laid plans oft go awry.” The tour was in fast French. Why had I assumed I’d grasp some of it 🤔 HAHA

Nu comme habillé, musée Delacroix

 

It was fitting that a fashion shoot should be taking place at Place de Furstenburg, 

Near the Delacroix museum,

Where  a small exhibit of paintings, ‘Nu Comme Habillé/Naked As Dressed’ related to fashion and how Delacroix painted fabrics.

Paris 2024 Hospitality Houses, Parc de Villette

 

You didn’t have to go to the games 🏊🤺 🏀 

To get into the “Olympic Spirit” in Paris.

A short metro trip to Parc de Villette in the 19th arron., north of the city

Street Walker in Paris

 

Yesterday I went back to see what I’d missed out on Tuesday while near fainting in Hermès.

Place Vendôme seemed a good place to start. Might as well start at the top and work down. 

If it was good enough for Holly Golightly…

Passing out in Hermes

  

I was supposed to meet Solli at Entrance 8 at Place de la Concorde

For the Olympics Parc Urbain . 

Jumping Into the Paris 2024 Olympics

I’ve been MIA getting my life back from a prison state & a few days of 101 temperatures 🥵 to focus on the Paris 2024 Olympics

Finally able to appreciate the OLYMPICS 🤸‍♂️
