From the Archive | Au Revoir! Off to France We Go
We are headed back to France to load up the next container of vintage goodies to bring back to the shops! We are counting down the days until our bellies are filled with cheese and croissants and our bags are full of stoneware and rustic linen.

Go To Airport Outfit:
Black stretch denim, a black t-shirt, and black sandals or Rothy flats. Cannot forget a big black scarf and a pair of cozy socks in my tote!

The Shoes You Could Walk Across Europe In:
Massimo Dutti cowboy boots in the winter, Veja sneakers in the summer.

While on the Plane or Train…
Read a book or take a nap? Read a book. Always.
When Dining Out…
Try something new or stick with what you know and like? Try something new. That’s how I found my favorite French food!
In Between Your Shopping of the Brocantes in France…
Stop into a café for a macaroon and espresso or pop into a local museum for some inspiration?
Why not both? You never know when and where inspiration will strike.
