” America is my country, and Paris is my home town”
Gertrude Stein
I LOVE Paris, I can never say it enough…. all the stunning lights, mind blowing history, art, gorgeous people… I could go on and on here but my VERY favorite thing to do while I am in Paris is to hide myself away in a local restaurant and/or go where the locals shop and just observe! I find myself sitting for hours in LOVE with the culture and fashion.
Here is what I found this time around:
1. Furry over sized vest! EVERYWHERE! ( makes me sad, I just gave away three of mine due to downsizing!) All types of faux and real fur… Big and cozy!
2.Plaid! Bringing the Northwest to Paris perhaps?! Plaid shirts AND ripped jeans with peek-a-boo patches in plaid..
3.Ballet flats. No one wearing high heels. Pheeewww! Fashionable AND great on the feet!
4.Messy but perfectly coiffed hair, meaning gorgeous waves but with matte texture to it … that ” I woke up looking this good” !
5.Big gem stone rings. And please only one per hand! No competing!
6.Welcome back 80’s-90’s! High~ waisted jeans! Say no to crack! Gone are the days of low low low.. at least in France
7.Natural Beauty: Clean beautiful faces. Not a a lot of makeup. None of this “Kardashian Countouring” The French Women have too much confidence in their beauty to have time with this non sense
8.The color ORANGE! on lips, clothes, … orange is IN.. just in time for fall! ” My favorite color is “FALL”
That’s it for now… Until next time .. “We will always have Paris…”
