Parisiens don't just wear neutrals year-round and live in neutral buildings. They furnish their interiors with even more neutrals... To visit the new branch of Blanc D'Ivoire 25 rue de saintonge, 75003 Fernanda et famille at Blanc D'Ivoire, original watercolor, 9" x 11" They have a wonderful eye... Everything at Blanc d'Ivoire is pretty terrific. Terrific shapes...
Terrific textures...
Terrific neutrals that all work perfectly together...
They do offer the odd small spash of brilliant color just to jazz things up a bit...
The Swedish are not afraid to get spashy with color...
But they do get their knickers in a twist if you bring in a tarte citron from nearby patisserie Jacques Genin to eat with their chocolat chaud. We got our hands slapped...ahem :)
