Paris Birds

Here's another thing I saw all over Paris -BIRDS!
A tiny bluebird sitting atop a tarte aux Fraises at Maison Collet
Woolie handmade birdies sitting in a shop window on rue Cherche du Midi...
Decorating wine labels..
And wearing hats noless!
This baby bird sign for Librairie Chantelivre, - a wonderful childrens book store.
An ornathology drawing sits regally on a pillow on rue de Seine..
Or gracing the cover of this book.
This is a new mini edition of a beautiful bird painting book.
A bluebird holds the pen on this calligraphie instruction book I brought home..
Birds are king in Paris.
And they will only nibble on crumbs from Pierre Herme! Actually they prefer the mini petit fours. Were they designed especially for Paris birds?
BONNE JOURNEE




PARIS (AFP) — French fashion giant Yves Saint Laurent, one of the great designers of the 20th century who revolutionized women's dress, has died at the age of 71 after a lengthy illness.

Saint Laurent, whose black trouser suits and safari jackets became an icon of women's liberation in the 1960s, died late Sunday of a brain tumour, his former lover and longtime business partner Pierre Berge said.

He had suffered poor mental and physical health for much of his life and had been seriously ill "for a year," Berge told French radio. The funeral will take place Friday in Paris.

Rest in Peace, Yves!!!
