Paris Dreaming





Hello my friends. I hope you're having a great start to the week.
I've been working very hard on the edits to my manuscript for J'Adore Paris amd I must say that I'm getting quite excited about the results.

Working on this book has got me dreaming and thinking about the glorious city and wondering what is it about that magical place that has us so entranced. A good friend of mine came up with an answer recently: Paris represents a feminine energy with its round arches,  curvaceous bridges, flowing water, incandescent light and street names such as Rue Madame and Rue Princesse...

 
I think she may be on to something. Would you agree?

For a recap of Paris Couture Week, take a look at these images from The Globe and Mail.

Bonjour!





Aren't these pictures gorgeous? They're by Caitlin Bellah, a young photographer with lots of talent.

 I've been running around Paris today, trying to capture the essence of the city! But wanted to leave you with a personal touch.

This is a picture taken at Au Nom De la Rose, a florist in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. The weather even allowed me to have lunch outside! Incroyable!!
