bonheur: paris Metro

I shoot shoes in the Metro but this trip I went for scarves/l'esharpes.

Purple is IN in case you were wondering...

The variety of scarf knots and folds seems endless...

Animal prints will always be IN.

No animal print scarf on this doggie. Pourquoi pas?

Was pastry chef Delmontel influenced by scarves in the Metro when he designed this towering chou/cream puff?

Much like this towering blue scarf - this woman has quite a long neck it would seem...

Just a sliver of green scarf compliments the red bobble hat.

Hair, scarf and sweater are totally color co-ordinated here on the train.

You can get good tips how to tie your scarf by browsing the Paris vitrines...

These are at Marie Brunon on rue Vavin.

This example in Bonpoint might be a tough act to follow. You'd need assistance with this one for sure!

Bon Week-End!

I'm addicted to Paris signs especially in the Metro. It can help if you get lost looking for the exit...

I learned today at The Paris Chronicles the white 'beveled' Metro tiles are quite special - they not only reflect more light but have become a chic addition to many homeowner's kitchens and bathrooms.

I love the separate exits in the Metro. No fighting incoming riders like in New York's MTA. Any wonder NYC makes the top of the list for rudest city?

FYI you won't be able to use the machines if you don't have a chip in your credit card so be sure to have euros onhand.

Leaving the inner sanctum of the Metro can set you up

For spectacular views like l'Opera Garnier. But you'll be on an island, Pl Charles Garnier with at least 4-5 possible crossings on offer.

I'm immersed reading Thirza Vallois on my new Kindle. She keeps you busy every single step looking this way and that, taking in historical data I previously overlooked. No wonder I see red in Paris. Formerly the cobblestones were streaming with it.
