Waltzing around Concorde

Look, that maman is scolding her petite fille in the Tuileries gardens. Last Friday I went to Madeleine
for a new sim card. Then I walked over to Concorde for a browse. Its still feels like taking a trip without packing.

I popped into Angelina. They usually have good 💌 paper envelope stuffers. But Paris is paper-free these days. Can you catch Covid from a business or perfume card? :( 

A tray of stacked chocolate cups drew my eye.  I’ll come back when its chilly (its 80s-90s degrees). 

                                Checks are IN for Fall

                            More checks and shorts...

 Laduree's latest macaron boxes are by Tokiodoki 

      By Sergio Legno, an illustrator obsessed with kawaii.

             Inside their perfect pastries. I resisted.

I didn’t resist Mado de Paris. New to 252, rue de Rivoli since January. I stopped in for an iced citronade, lemon ice cream and a lemon zest madeleine. Toute Lemon 🍋 

Beautiful lemon tea tins. Perfectly iced madeleines.

A classic French couple flirting in a cafe. What’s not to love about Concorde? Reliably beautiful in any light. I’m off to see the Sarah Moon exhibit at MAM. Then swim 🏊‍♀️ Then see Le Salon International du Livre Rare at Grand Palais. Then work ✏️ on the September Paris letter. 

                 Pray🙏 for the West Coast ❤️ 🐻
