A few more images of Paris

Taken by my good friend Lou. She rocks too!

Bon Ton ...the cutest childrens store in Paris...that i visited!

 

I love the long wallpaper style art poster that the kids can colour themselves.

A couple of levels of cute and kitsch kids stuff, a hairdressers and clothes boutique. Downstairs bedding, more toys and a mini library with seating and books for sale. I couldn't resist a funky illustrated book called ' je suis superlapin!' and a purple small jelly bag.

And everything comes in their own cotton star printed tote. Oh the coolness.

They have a few stores. All different. I went to

glimpses

A very tired me sharing a few glimpses from my weekend. More to come. More sleep needed. 5.30am is not a respectable time to go to bed. Even in Paris.

Only 2 sleeps to go

Although really its 1 and a half as we leave at 3.30am to catch our 5.42am train to Paris! CRAZY!

At the moment the only thing on my mind is this

or this...?

Can anyone actually believe i have NEVER had one of these beautiful looking morsels?! But which to try Laduree or Pierre Herme? ...both?

Paris inspiration...11 days to go and counting!

Off to Gay Paris in just over a week. I've been busy so haven't yet managed to refresh my pigeon French and check out all the things I want to do. Little Brown Pen has been helping a real lot with masses of inspiration but i must make a list of things to do whilst i'm there. I'm going with some friends, some have been before and others haven't so it'll be a mixed trip but i just want to delight in the wonder of the Marais and eat my first ever macaroon at Laduree. Anyone got anything to put on my list?

And yes this week i will be watching Amelie...for the first time!

And checking out some old SATC 'Paris' episodes just for fun!
