As much as I love Paris, sometimes a gal just needs to get away from the city. Especially a gal who is used to living in Los Angeles where her car could take her to the mountains for a hike in under 10 minutes, or have a lovely day at the beach that is only [...]

Finally the day came when I didn’t just walk by the beautiful Opera building, but actually got to go inside it and enjoy my first French Ballet. When a few of my friends came to visit from Luxenbourg and suggested we do something cultural I didn’t hesitate for one minute when they came up with [...]

When a friend of mine told me about the European Heritage Days, I couldn’t help but to want to kick myself in the shins for not knowing about this! Thankfully, I still had that one last day to check something out and since it was almost the end of the day, I grabbed my bag [...]

It’s officially my favorite time of the year. It’s the beginning of the Autumn season which means chic layering and incredible boots. It also means that it is almost Fashion Week here in Paris! To kick off this anticipation period, all over, the world really, we have Fashion Night (In LA and NY it’s Fashion [...]

One of the most amazing parts of living in Paris is the spontaneity that drives everyone to organize last minute adventures. This past weekend I got a last minute invitation to drive to Giverny and visit Claude Monet’s home and his famous gardens. Of course I jumped on this opportunity, although I am pretty sure [...]

Before I came to Paris, I had an opportunity to work with a talented designer – Lloyd Klein – who just happened to have been the head designer of the House of Madame Grès in the 90′s. Madame Grès, in case you didn’t know, was one of the original couturiers in Paris. She was a [...]

Finally I feel like part of the hot fashion community of this fab city of style. I had the honor to be invited to one of the newest and hip fashion events in Paris. Organized by the beautiful Evgenia Silina, Fashion Hours is a monthly networking shindig for all La Mode professionals. I arrived fashionably [...]

When a friend of mine told me she knows of a fabulous Vintage shop in Paris I was a bit skeptical. After all, ALL vintage shops in Paris are pretty fantastic. No, no, she says. This one is REALLY nice. And it has REALLY nice things. Turns out those “nice things” are vintage pieces like [...]

Bonjour from Paris! I am writing my first post in letter form since I think it’s most fitting for this type of column. After all, twice a week I will be sending a “postcard from Paris” to my dear readers. Fortunately, thanks to the amazing thing called internet, I won’t have to invest in millions [...]
