Couples at Flore
 
There were lots of couples strolling by the Café de Flore in Paris... kind of warms your heart in this dismal spring we've been subjected to lately.

I love this all! Keep it coming!

yes, keep them coming.
Phread I was told to avoid the Flore because they were rude but I have been twice and everyone was nice. I asked the head waiter if I could have the Sempe drawing that covers the round tables. It now sits under glass on my round table.

cigale, lors of people avoid it because it is touristy, too. and I have to admit that the food is not great and the prices high, but I just love the people watching. tonight the man next to me stole the menu!
Will do, Ackislander!

Love your blog. Read lots of it on my cross country US. Flight yesterday

CarolA May 4th, 2012 05:16 PM

Although it is making me think I am going to have to get the wool coat out of storage for my trip later this month :)

Phread May 5th, 2012 01:50 AM

CarolA, merci. And yes, I am still wearing wool :(

So much fun people watching in Paris. I scrolled down the rest of the blog and noticed the two Vanessa Bruno totes. I love the two toned with the zipper on the outside. I wonder if I can still find them available during my next trip in October. Can't seem to locate it in the US, however, the sequins tote is pretty expensive here!

Thanks for the link!

Well, I have a couple of more Fridays to go. Will keep my fingers crossed for warming trend

Phread May 6th, 2012 07:12 AM

Roberta, the duo tone tote is not Vanessa Bruno. It is a Celine knock off, but yesterday I was in the Celine shop, and I prefer the knock off because of those large swinging tassles adds a bit of fun, while keeping things chic.

Thanks, Phread, I misread the blog and thought it was another Vanessa Bruno. I hope I can find it in October. I will check out Basic Bazaar!

Phread - we were in Paris for the rugby [mainly] at the beginning of March and it looks like we were warmer than the folks in your pics!

weren't we lucky?

Phread May 9th, 2012 07:23 AM

Yes, it was warmer and you are especially lucky to be here watching a match! Allez les bleus...

yes we were lucky to watch a famous english victory - which i may say that the french people sitting near us took very well and were extremely generous in their praise for how the english team played.

Vive l'entente cordiale.
