My little book of "things I want to do" always seems to come in handy. After our morning trip, Sandy and I ventured out on our own. Our first stop was Colette where we drooled over shoes, accessories, music, and magazines. We will definitely be back for more...that place was awesome. The rest of the day lead us to all the street wear and vintage shops along rue de Tiquetonne. We explored shops like Royal Cheese, WESC and Episode. I scored an amazing vintage bag/brief case. It was only 45euros and the inside clasp reads Bon Voyage.
I couldn't be happier.

Our last stop today was a place that I heard about online...
After researching it, I knew that I had to go. Today was the day...and I must say....it truly is everything people say it is.
Thank you La Choclaterie de Jacques Genin, you made our day even more perfect.

À bas le Ritz...Vive la rue

Today was just fantastic. We started the morning off with an exhibition of Saint Laurent: Rive Gauche, La Révolution de la Mode at Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris. Unfortunately, we were not able to take photos inside but I do promise it was amazing. My favorite part was the huge collection of jewelry and accessories. It was love at 1st sight. If you are ever in Paris, I do recommend going to the exhibition. The collection truly represents his voice and impact on fashion through time. Later in the day we stumbled upon a silly yet amazing place in Paris. Breakfast-In-America was just like home, and I must be honest and say that the food was amazing. There is nothing wrong with a true American breakfast every now and then!!

After our meal, I pulled out my book of "places I want to go" and we made our way down Rue du Roi de Sicile in search of Paris vintage. We stumbled upon several fantastic shops including Freep "S" Star, Le Vintage Bar, Vintage Clothing Paris and Noir Kennedy where I got a pair of cute vintage glasses. The prices ranged from place to place...some super reasonable and others extremely expensive.
Finally, I am starting to mark things off my list...it feels good.
