MON PARIS // BACK TO THE 20's?

If you know the movie Midnight in Paris (if not, shame on you!) you probably know the scene where Gil Pender is picked up by a few sophisticated looking Parisians. I wanted to go to that place but I didn’t know where it was located. Until my lovely boyfriend found it at a special website for all the locations of the movie. So back in Paris at (almost) midnight we went to the pick up spot...

Unfortunately there was no old Renault driving by when we heard the church bells at midnight…

Don't miss the lovely music from Stephane Wrembel!





Do you also want to try to go back to the 20s? This place is located near the Pantheon at Rue de la Montaigne Sainte-Geneviève. Good luck!

MON PARIS // QUAI VOLTAIRE FURNITURE SHOPS

QUAI VOLTAIRE:

Way too expensive furniture but oh so lovely! Walking along the left bank of the Seine this ‘’piece of happiness’’ really did catch my eye. What do you think of it? Art or Kitsch?
Have a nice evening!

CITÉ DE LA MODE // SHOP WITH NO NAME

Last week I was strolling through the streets of Montmartre, heading to vintage shop Chezel. I was pretty tired because I had been to Versailles and the rest of the day I had been walking around in Saint-Germain. But the store Chezel would close at 6 o'clock and I  had to take a look! The shop is located in a nice street with several small shops. Next to Chezel there is another vintage store with nice items. I asked the saleswoman how the store was called but the store was still so new that it had no name yet. How funny! Cause it is a lovely shop already!

So when you want to go to Chezel you also must take a look at ‘’The shop with no name’’  

Below some pictures of the shop...

It's located on:

Rue Condorcet 59 (also the location of Chezel)

VILLE-LUMIÈRE // VERSAILLES DETAILS

Versailles is one of the biggest and most beautiful estates of the world. You can walk around there for days and still not have enough of all the beauty of this palace. Last week I went there again ‘cause somehow I really needed to see its beauty again. 
It is such a big palace that you actually want to rush through every room to see the whole palace in a few hours. Not a good plan I would say because you will miss all the details Versailles has to offer you.
So take your time and spot the handcrafted details in the palace... (it might take you a few days ;))

P.S. Did you know you can visit Versailles for free if you are an European resident under 26?
