Arrival in Paris - and What I Wore

Thank you to everyone who followed along on instagram - Paris was amazing!!! 
Looking forward to sharing new discoveries and old discoveries in upcoming posts.



After arriving in Paris mon ami E. and I could not drop our luggage off at our flat in the
Le Marais 4th arrondissement quickly enough. We paused only long enough to throw some water on our jet-lagged faces, grab jackets and dashed out the door to explore what would be our neighbourhood for the next 10 days.


Sitting on the steps of Notre Dame des Blancs-Manteaux 
located at 12 Rue des Blancs-Manteaux literally steps from our flat  



We quickly discovered that our favourite tea provider was located minutes away ...
and just the medicine we needed for the jet-lag that was settling in (as you can see in my eyes).


Tea and scrumptious bite to eat ...


ummm.... I think I may have thoroughly enjoyed every last morsel!!!

Mariage Frères was established in 1854 and I was introduced to it's amazing teas during my 2011 trip to Paris. I'll be sharing more about this amazing salon de thé in future posts.


Layering is key to dressing in Paris - the weather can change very quickly. And yes there is a scarf in my bag (just in case). What I wore: jacket - Banana Republic; peasant blouse - Simply Irresistible; jeans - Suko Jeans; shoes - Converse sneakers; sunglasses - Gucci; leather handbag - B. Makowsky.

    Wow, you look still gorgeous after this long, Atlantic flight! Love the Mariage Frères tea room where you found some delicious bites with tea.
