an outfit in Paris

skirt:  gift from my in-laws
sandals:  target
scarf:  gift from husband's India trip

Our first day in Paris was magic.  We had taken an overnight train to the city and after checking in at our hotel, we were both so eager to see everything.  We walked to Rue Cler, ate lunch at a cafe and enjoyed the beautiful (and short-lived) sunshine.  Seeing our first glimpse of the Eiffel Tower as we walked and snacking on a mind-blowing chocolate eclair were the little bits of the trip you just soak up to remember during the everyday routine back home.

Paris was gorgeous - loads of cafes with artful menus and pretty awnings and chairs lined up for people-watching, tree-lined streets in every direction, the houseboats along the Seine, and the grey and taupe buildings with wrought iron balconies.

We made it to the Eiffel Tower and sat on the lawn looking up at the chocolate brown architecture. Later - while walking back - we passed this intriguing building covered in plants and saw rows of perfectly trimmed square trees on the Right Bank.   


p.s. Husband was there too, see...
