Closed for Vacances!!

For someone like myself…Someone who not only is known to be a  queen of shopping, though who also has worked in the world of retail for most of my professional career, representing the best of global and local brands alike, I was surprised to see that Paris truly does shut down during the month of August.

Apart from your standard Je t’aime Paris t-shirt, or in spending all of your loot at the ever fabulous Le Printemps or Galleries Lafayette, there is not much to offer in terms of shopping during this time.   And believe me, I’d love nothing more than to spend all my hard earned cash at either of the above mentioned, though I’d also like to stay in Paris and enjoy this place for as long as possible.

August is certainly not the best time for shopping, in the fashion capital of the world.  So therefore I wait.  This simply means, that I must stay longer to get a real feel for the ever stylish, trend-setting city.  Hurry along, September so I can devour all of your heavenly shopping!!

  1. The wait is almost over!! I had some great luck with European brands and labels in St Germain on Rue Du Rennes. Was ’06 but bet it’s still fun:)
