Galignani

Do you stop at Librairie Galignani when you're in Paris?
It's the place to find the latest books on art and fashion.
Right now the windows are full of YSL.
Yves Saint Laurent's first major retrospective opens tomorrow at the Petit Palais. I got my ticket at FNAC for Friday morning. Yay
Inside Galignani the fashionistas are browsing, since the shows are still on.
They always have a slew of books on Coco. Remember when I wrote about The Gospel According to Chanel? Wouldn't it be swell to have your book in a chic shop in Paris?
More YSL mostly in French.
A plethora of fashion books.
No wonder Bill is here.
This book caught my eye, My Mother's Clothes by photographer Jeanette Montgomery Barron.
A lovely memoir/scrapbook of her late mother's various stylish outfits and the stories they recall. Poignant.
A key thing to remember about Librairie Galignani is.
It's next door to Angelina at 224 rue de Rivoli.
So easy to pop in for a chocolat chaud post-browsing non?
BON APPETITE!
