I felt I have to tell you that GREY is the color for Fall.
Audrey Hepburn is always all over Paris in many forms, but this is an innovative version in these grey handbags..non?
You wouldn't think grey rubber rain boots would be a fashion statement but you'd be wrong in Paris... Grey flannel flats will do very nicely too...
The windows at HELLO KITTY were full of grey... HELLO KITTY! Are you kidding me? Hey! do not turn up your nose. This shop is on Place Vandome down from THE RITZ. I admit I was a bit surprised too...ahem
The layered look toute en gris
It's all over this town up the whazoo. The KEY accessory is a metalic leather bag/sac...
Note this gold number with the grey stripped scarf flung over it...
Just stitch on a few odd buttons (grey of course) and you've got a fashion statement par excellance.
Or you could mix your metalics...plenty of flats are still out there.
Should I buy this one? Pas cher either - maybe 45 or 65 Euros. I forget which. I also forget where I took this picture :(
This was the piece de resistance of my GREY research and a "stolen shot" on the Metro too! A bag made entirely of pop can openers!
Tres chic non?
I had Sunday tea with another blogger at Dalloyau.
She's lived in Paris a few years, put forth an interesting point:
Americans come to Paris and desperately want to dress like the French. And Americans desperately want to pass as French. I was of course, wearing my correctly knotted French scarf + a ton of grey/gris, while she was wearing a white cable knit V-neck "tennis" sweater = very AMERICAN! Naturally the whole world wants to dress "FRENCH" but what do you think of this phenomenon?
