Merci Paris

Thursdays are party nite in Paris. Paris Bee kindly sent me her invite to Merci's homage to Vahram Muratyan and his tres witty book, Paris vs New York.
Muratyan created orange, yellow, turquoise decals for the walls, floors and hanging from the ceiling.
Plus you could get your picture taken with the author.
Or wait patiently as only the French do for most anything
To get shaken and stirred with a Brazilian cocktail of cachaca.
The theme was Brazilian/Portuguese and the eats were intriguing. Perhaps welks sitting in a bit of jelly plus a pink strip of an unknown vegetable.
Squares of guimauve/marshmallow covered in coconut. The dipping sauce kept disappearing when errant guest assumed it was a cocktail. Haha
Crevette mini sandwiches gaily colored in orange/yellow to match Muratyan's various world-wide editions.
What to wear to such an affair?
The long trailing colorful scarf sans fancy knots and twists.
Has replaced (thank goodness) the big wrapped blanket 'look' of winter.
More turquoise to match the books cover.
Probably staff so appropriately dressed in turquoise dancing the Samba. I wish the invite said we should wear the book's colors - orange, yellow and turquoise.
Boots are still A-OK in Paris, especially Louboutins.
A terrific Brazilian/French band livened things - Clube dos Democraticos. A snippet is on YOUTUBE.
Do you know Paris vs New York? It's great fun to page through for a taste of both cities and how they differ. Plus he keeps you smiling :)
I couldn't help noticing even Merci has Summer sales on.
Bleu Bird in Paris.
Hope you enjoyed this week's party!
