Yesterday was major. I got my walking papers to venture back into the Big Apple (with a cane but I'm now allowed to climb up the stairs alternate steps instead of one-step-at-a-time!)
YAHOO
A chance to return to the Pastry Sketch Crawl begun in late January...
With some reservations bien sur...
NO sitting for hours on end (that upended me into a sciatica episode)...
Back to tres chic Cafe Petrossian.
Though Lord knows why I picked out exactly the SAME tarte as last fateful visit...
I must have a deep hidden attraction to strawberries...
If not to pate brisee crust. I only stayed a half hour and sketched a bit. No point tempting the Gods of Sciatica again.
I returned home to paint in bed...
This seems to be a lucky painting spot for me along with Nom de la Rose teas...
Au Nom de la Rose Au Nom de la Rose Teas, watercolor on Etsy, 9" x 11"

I could not resist a quick look in Bergdorf Goodman's windows...
At some 'tartie' shoes I may never venture out in again (not that I did in the past...ahem) Farewell M. Louboutin :(
Mais BONJOUR PASTRY SKETCH CRAWL Encore!!!

Autumn Luxe

Bonjour mes amis!  I'm sorry for my absence.  My days have been filled shopping for school supplies and enjoying the last days of summer with my children before the school year begins.  I'm never quite ready to send them back.

  With the 100+ temps we're having, I'm dreaming of cooler temperatures and autumn fashion!

Dolce&Gabbana

Valentino

Louboutin's fall collection is fabulous!  It really deserves it's own post.

Chanel Paradoxal

Dior Black Sequins

YSL Manicure Couture

Au Revoir!  xoxo, B

I always wonder how Bill Cunningham does it?
Capture the New York Girl with such dash and ease..? Yesterday as I was slogging through the 90 degree heat, the New York Girl was everywhere! New York tourists are always looking up, so they completely miss her... Or they're looking and shooting each other at New York 'monuments' like Rock Center...The way to find the TRUE New York Girl (or NYG) is to look at the ground... Fab sandals everywhere. Does this NYG have a twisted ankle? Divinely simple Gucci sandals - how could I miss the logos all over... The Gucci's owner - quite soigne and all in neutrals.

Hey French Girls! The NYG has figured it out too ya know...
This classy babe wears common flip flops and pulls it off with panache...
Another quintessentially NYG in flip flops...
OMG WHERE ARE MY %#@* FLIP FLOPS!?
Does the NYG stop here for a chocolate sundae?
Absolutement pas!
She's saving herself for Chocolatier Michel Cluizel on 5th avenue bien sur...
OMG! Where have I been?
A petite bouchee will do nicely...
Two smart NYGs catch a faint breeze in Bryant Park...
Another waits for the free movie to start in the park...
This New York mec/guy inspects the NYGs passing by...
Allo NY flics...
Have you taken a look lately at les flics de Paris? Man, are they buff!
Another NY mec lounges on 'Fashion Ave' and completely misses...
The fab Stephen Burrows 'Sidewalk Catwalk' display on his left. HMPH!
But a future-to-be New York babe doesn't miss a trick and is taking notes.
The NYG is toujour prepared for inclement weather and we've been having it.
A NY Goddess in the metro station...
Another goddess lounging on the subway - rather blase...
Natch she's got the latest gladiator sandals...

Rapunzel gets off at my stop in Astoria...
Am I a NYG? Of course I am.
You get it by osmosis if you can survive here long enough.
BONJOUR NEW YORK GIRLS!!!

Does your pampered pet have a diamond collar?
Postcards available on every street corner immortalize Paris dogs...
Paris dogs are in every art galerie vitrine on the Left Bank...
There are soooo many "don'ts" in Paris...
One BIG "do" is it's OK to pet a strange dog.
If you take your pup to Le Comptoir for Gawds sake take a blankie!
It can be quite chilly if you sit outside...
La Mom in Paris sent me this adorable photo of a pampered Paris pet sitting at the dinner table in his/her OWN chaise/chair!
Wha'?
A bit more down scale and no special chair, but still an invited guest - this pug at the Louvre McDo's.
"Stop reading and give me a snack svp vite, Madame".
Paris dog on the bus in a rather plain vanilla carrier bag...hmmm
No wonder Ralph Lauren has been awarded the Chevalier de la Legion de Honneur ! According to Andre Leon Talley of Talley Ho-Vogue, he has "the new black alligator doggie carrier with a faux-fur carpet interior for €20,000" in his new Paris store". Definitely an improvement on plain vanilla canvas though I wonder how the 'gator feels about it...
You can always just carry your dog as an accessory.
No 'gator carrier bag required.
Dogs do not rule quite as much as they used to.
Things have changed...
A Paris dog can no longer enter a food shop. *note the sign at Eric Kayser. Horrors! Also*note the thoughtfully-designated parking place for your hound.
In a fancy department store like Bon Marche, dogs still rule thank you very much. *Note the fashionable studded collar and leash on this fully co-ordinated hound...
Galeries Lafayette even has dog art plastered on the walls at dog eye-level...
If you're going out walking with your hound, by all means dress head-to-toe in royal purple. Your dog deserves it...
I stalked this dog and owner for quite a few paces... Don't ask me why. Nothing all that special, except it IS a Paris dog.

Bergdorf Goodman's is trying desperately to ape Paris ways by placing a dog in their window. But where are the Louboutins? Shoesless? Barefoot? You would never see this on a Paris street!
No Paris dog would permit it.

BONJOUR PARIS DOGS!!!
