Went on a quick 3 day trip to Paris last week to celebrate Tusia’s 12th birthday and there are so many highlights from the trip! Here is what I loved from Paris last week (and will always love)
1. The Random Street Art
is there anything more beautiful than art all over the streets of Paris? I could spend days just looking at the walls along the streets!
2. The Metro
The metro is an adventure in itself. Affordable, easy, and SO clean! We love taking it. We took it to the Taylor Swift concert in this photo, hence the sparkles.
3. Grandmas at Taylor Swift
People watching at Taylor Swift was incredible. And of the highlights was seeing all these older women dressed in sequins and sparkles — way more than you would think!
4. Nutella Crepes
NOTHING BETTER than street Nutella crepes. NOTHING.
5. Fresh Strawberries
Of, if anything is better than Nutella crepes, than it is the French strawberries in May and June — THAT is the best.
6. L’Orangerie
Even for 5 minutes inside to see the Water Lillies, L’Orangerie never disappoints.
7. Mother-Daughter Time
The whole point of our weekend was to be together — and that is priceless.
8. Jacques Genin Chocolates
Life is just a box of chocolates — and this box is DIVINE.
9. New Art WorkÂ
I always love new art work on the streets of Paris — and love this juxtaposition of the shiny metal with the old buildings. I saw this one morning on the Seine on my run and found it quite beautiful.
10. Dior Exhibit
Always worth going to!
11. Embroidery at Dior
A room full of these beautiful white dresses with red embroidery. I love them all!
Look how gorgeous!
12. Preparation for Olympics Paris 2024
So many fun signs for Paris Olympics 2024.
