very important accessory question
 
I am going to paris in a few days and I really want to find a raspberry beret..you know, the kind you'd find in a secondhand store. Does anyone know where I might locate one?

And if it was warm, would you wear much more? I would try Paisley Park.

Sounds like you will end up with a very princely look.<BR><BR>Best wishes from <BR><BR>... the poster formerly known as...<BR><BR>me<BR>

There's a guy I've seen that sells them out of the back of his car. He's usually parked near the Eiffel Tower -- you can't miss his little red Corvette.

But will it keep you dry in Purple Rain?

Jerome tells me they still party like its 1999 in Paris.

<BR>*THIS* is what is sounds like when doves cry.<BR><BR>Sorry, Sam, "I get delirious" whenever I see a post like this.<BR>

I personally would go for the Diamonds and Pearls.

Aw come on, let's get crazy

You'll be the CREAM of the crop.

No, no, no. Don't buy your beret here. Wait until you're in Paris. It'll be easy. Everybody's wearing berets in Paris --- it's the uniform. Black clothes, topped off by a jaunty red beret. Very chic. Ultra cool.<BR><BR>

Okay, I went to Paisley Park and to the Eiffel tower and the man in the little red corvette stole my diamonds and pearls. After that I was so upset that I partied like 1999 until I creamed myself. Even the doves were crying. I wore my yellow buttless pants and got drenched in the purple rain (I was one sexy MOFO). So far, my quest for the raspberry beret has been unsuccessful. This prince is turning into a pauper. Help!<BR><BR>Prince, or the artist formerly known as Prince..no, wait, Prince.<BR><BR>P.S.--this quest has really challenged my identity.

hi sam,<BR>i love paris in the springtime! I hope you haven't already left so you'll get this note. Try a little boutique called Le' Mirabel, it's on Rue de Lasuer in the 3rd district. Have a great time!!

you guessed it...

hello Aug 16th, 2002 08:33 PM

You are kidding, right?

sam Aug 16th, 2002 08:44 PM

Is it weird to want a raspberry beret?

Prin Aug 16th, 2002 08:50 PM

No, but it's a little odd to be such a Prince aficionado.<BR>Love, Vanity
