Au revoir Paris!

Here I am, back in Denver, still dreaming of French bread and wine. Our last day in Paris involved heading back to SIL to place an order for a super gorgeous line of hosiery. Keep your eye out - we'll let you know when they arrive. We also had a chance to watch the Passionata fashion show which is always fun to watch.

Then off to Galleries Lafayette for Paris Treats! Every year Jeanie and I bring back a bra and panty set for each of our sales staff from collections we can't get in the states. It makes everyone feel like they got a taste of Paris! A tip for savvy shoppers: January is when all of Paris is on sale! Galleries Lafayette is one of the largest department stores (and most beautiful with stained glass ceiling and bejeweled balconies) in Paris. It's lingerie department is over 20,000 sq feet and items are 20 - 80% off. They even have sales items in bins a la sidewalk sale!


Back in Denver. I have just enough time to recover before the Valentine's Day fun starts!
