this last week has been quite busy so i went south , to provence , in my little village called Menerbes . it was sunny when we arrived and over 20 degrees and totaly surrealistic !
this long pink blouse was my favourite, its a 100 % linen and has a bohem/painter feel ..
oh la la how i feel like wearing this little red dress for next summer , the drapé make it cling to the body in all the right places , the fabric is fluid and the red vivid .
this is what the office and workshop of Vanessa Bruno looks like , its huge ! offices are on top , the collection presentation is in the center and both left and right ,and the models are built up in the bottom of the building.
i was walking in the Marais were it has flourished with many new cool shop when i saw this explosion of colors ... imagine , i could put my hands in those bags down to my elbows ..mhhh
book tower and..
at the merci cafe you can enjoy your daily cup few meters away from that wall of books , it is so cosy as you can pick up any of them and read a bit .
the bar decoration at the accessoire fair , a pile of white box and black ribbons . who wouldn´t feel like opening one of those ?
I went to Ludo but he did not had any Chanel bags i fell for , so i went a little further in the jardins du palais Royal and there was my bag chez gabrielle Geppert ( www.gabriellegeppert.com) , she had a lot of very fancy models but my hearth went for this little beige and gold model , it was owned by an old lady for many years and it was all i wished for, gabrielle had a lot of beautifull things in her shop , some marvelous pieces from Louis Vuiton witch i know were produced in very small quantity , some great jewels from Hermes and many many more treasures .
anyone who wants a second hand Chanel bag witch is a certified one, knows that you can go safely to Didier Ludo in the jardin du palais royal , monsieur Ludo has wrotte a book about the little black dress and is a renown fashion person in Paris, so there i went ..
before the meeting with Vanessa Bruno i had a few hours free and i really felt i had to do something very important .
rue des rosiers you can eat meze with a lover or a good friend at chez marianne or in a hurry but still the best falafel in paris at l´as du falafel . and for little money too :)
cool gold leather wallet with a metalic chain and a "camera " drawing , can be carried on the shoulder , will be on sale at Shine in november , five colors ..yepee !
this is my new find ! LOUISON PARIS . they make funny lovely girly bags and wallets that don´t cost a fortune .
as promised , my shopping from yesterday : Best ever candle light by Dyptique paris ,rue des francs bourgeois . White tea from Mariage et Freres ,rue du bourg tibourg . Metalic industrial letters from my small industrial furniture dealer rue vieille du temple . Funny watch made from fabrics by BonTon for my little julian and last but not least a fantastic pull-over by APC made in soft camel hair and stripped black and beige , from the man collection soooo trendy ! also rue vieille du temple .
i was running around a lot today and suddenly the night came and with it the sweetness of the paris life when it is still over 20 degrees and most people eat outdoor ..mhhh lovely ...
Merci is the talk of the day in Paris , its a concept store made by the Bonpoint familly and the idea behind is to ask designers to give some vintage pieces for free and some personnal belongings to Merci who sell them and give all the profits to a caritative organisation .
As soon as i arrive at Phillip Lim showroom i am ended a bottle of water , coffe and then come the cruel job of mine , picking up among beautifull things some pieces , its hard because i want everything , each piece is more beautifull than the next , and it pure torture to have to let go some of them but this one we will have - i choose to ignore the price , we must have some piece of dream -
