Twice a year, we pack our little bags, hop on Air France (or Delta) and zoom over to Paris for the mother of all retailing events in Europe: the famed Maison et Objet exposition. It’s a veritable feast for the eyes and senses and it’s a great place to track emerging trends in design, furniture, accessories and gifts. Along the way, we treat ourselves to a couple yummy meals, glimpses of La Tour Eiffel and a croissant or two…
This month was no different. Paris was, as always, superb. And we found ourselves easily counting the reasons why we love, love, love the City of Light so very much:

We’ll hit all the highlights plus a couple little secrets spots we have up our sleeves…
Sounds magical to us.
Ta ta.
