Champagne and the stars






"In his blue gardens men and girls came and went like moths among the whisperings and the champagne and the stars."

— F Scott Fitzgerald


I've made it to the chapter about Scott Fitzgerald in Hemingway's, The Moveable Feast and it is quite entertaining. You can imagine both of them drinking whiskey at La Closerie des Lilacs in Paris. They were both real characters and the book renders a vivid portrait of their friendship and sometimes rivalry.

I am looking forward to attending the Gaultier exhibit this evening and catching up with friends at the event.

Happy Monday!!!



I hope you all had a fantastic weekend! It was rainy here but very relaxing. I've almost finished reading Hemingway's A Moveable Feast, which is a memoir of his days in Paris and is a real treat for the senses. Next on my reading list: The Paris Wife, the story of Hemingway's first wife, Hadley.

Looking forward to an exciting week ahead, starting with drinks tonight with a NYC friend who made it on Project Runway and attending the opening of Jean Paul Gaultier's show on Tuesday Night. I promise to post pictures of this event.

Have a great week!
