It only takes a small bit of fluff or fur to be 'IN' this winter in Paris. And your dog can wear it if you'd rather not...
A fluffy-faux furry-shruggie thing will do...
If you insist, it can be orange and from SONIA...
But frankly it doesn't matter where you get your fluff...
Or who made it...
Granted, this kid's snow suit will cost you a bundle and is probably from Dior.
Surely you have an old bit of fur to stitch into a hood non?
Gerard Darel stitches it on to a bag this season...
Fur-esque boots were the most unusual bit of fluff seen on Paris streets...
A furry shawl collar thing will do it...
The 'Lady-like' look is always in fashion - and a fur scarf is just the added touch...
Like this French girl dans le rue...
A fur-jacketed kid with a Burberry mom...
A grown-up furry jacket worn with all grey dans la rue...
October was mille-feuille month and what a fluffy dessert that is. Well it better be hadn't it?
Gerard Mulot does superb fluffy desserts like nobody else in Paris...
A real walking-on-all-four-legs bit of French fluff...
M. told me to go to Bon Marche's basement to catch all the fluffy peluches/teddy bears and I did...
BEAR has never denied himself admiring a bit of French fluff.
Really he's quite incorrigible...
BONJOUR PARIS FLUFF!

Sadaharu Aoki Macha, original watercolor, 9" x 11 1/2"

About a week ago I got a package from KAT in Japan full of Macha green tea goodies - like 2 green square chocolates I could kill for and these little faux green tea cones that are sort of chocolatey and cookies and...and... THANK YOU KAT in Japan. Kat has great recipes on her site - Please visit.
All that Macha tea made me think of Paris pâtisserie Sadaharu Aoki and his green tea goodies like this opera cake...sigh
Here's a green Mille-feuille à la the vert
Eclair Machas lined up like soldiers...
Macha rollades full of a sweet red bean paste..I spotted these extraterestials called the Duomo (after the Florence Duomo?) at Sadaharu Aoki's boutique at Lafayette Gourmet.
My resistance broke down...
A peek inside - a mousse-like outer-igloo with red bean filling inside.
AND don't forget the Macha macaron stuck onto the side...heaven on earth. I'm having palpitations just describing it to you...
Inside Sadaharu Aoki's shop on 35 rue de Vaugirard, Paris 6è the walls are Macha as well as green tea jam.
Here is the divine Sadaharu Aoki himself, offering me a macaron at the Salon du Chocolat in October - a day never to be forgot!
And here, his fab box of macarons! 12 to a box and all labeled on the lid so you don't get confused. So kind...
BONNE JOURNEE
