Day Two in Paris: Flowers & Food



If there is one other thing that I love as much as panties, its flowers.  For me, Paris is just magical when it comes to all the flower shops. I can barely make it a block without wanting to pop into a shop just to inhale all the lovely fragrances.



We are always so lucky to have our apartment company greet us with flowers but halfway through the week Jeanie and I pick out another bouquet. 




This year  it was Moulie' on Place du Bourbon. http://mouliefleurs.com/ We left with stargazer lilies, freesia and huge amaryllises.  So cool to walk home with a big bundle of flowers wrapped in brown paper.  


No trip can be complete without special dining experiences.  

This year we tried out a new restaurant on the recommendation of Marc Metzger.  We loved Citrus Etoile http://citrusetoile.com/ We were well taken care of and really... A restaurant that decorates al in orange.  My thing gals. 




 

Next if you haven't had chocolat chaud at Angeline's http://www.angelina-paris.fr/ , y'all get in there.  Jeanie and I stopped in on our way to the Empreinte store and had lovely breakfast omelets and crouque Madam to accompany our hot chocolate.


My last shout out was the udon restaurant that Jocelyn found for us. www.kunitoraya.com/Kunitoraya was just a block away from our apartment and was incredible.  There was a line from 12pm until  they closed every night.  We tried the beef curry and the duck.  Amazing.





I could go on forever but really let's get on to the pretty panties and fashion shows.  Tune in tomorrow... 

Xoxo,
