remembering Paris (pt 1)

( i seriously adore this last picture I took, she embodied the perfect french woman in my eyes, beautiful, effortless, chic, and even looks great with me snapping her photos while walking through the louvre)

I can't believe 2011 is almost over, I'm not ready! I honoring this great year and my blog's birthday I decided to get a little nostalgic and reflect on my trip to Europe. Though London was amazing, Paris has a deeply special place in my heart. I've never felt so at home until I was there. I mean my family is french but I'm fairly american. I finally felt "normal" when I walked through those dizzying streets, and quickly accepted the Parisian lifestyle. I wanted to share some photos of my trip with you but I have so much to share! So I'll have to do it in a few parts.

Oh a few lessons from my trip;

Lesson one: Parisians are lovely people, and if anyone tells you other wise, they probably did something to piss them off.

Lesson number two: if your french is tres rusty (like mine!) and you need to tell someone something in English. Say it in a french accent, NO LIE, it totally works.

Lesson three: WEAR WHAT YOU WANT MAKE STATEMENTS, ITS FRANCE!

a side note: I blended in tell well in Paris, I could tell it was home, I got asked over 10 times where something was BY AMERICANS, ENGLISH, AND FRENCH PEOPLE...lol it was funny, made me feel like I was doing something right....haha!
