Madewell in Paris
March 27, 2012
Have you seen the new Madewell catalog? It’s pretty much Parisian perfection. What I would give for an afternoon strolling the Seine…
Sweetest video ever.

Parisian Inkwash

LOVE these pen and inkwash postcards of classic French films. The artist lived in Paris and illustrated four of her favorites — Amelie, Marie Antoinette, Before Sunrise and Breathless. A kindred spirit indeed!
Vintage Paris

Aren’t these vintage Paris postcards fantastic? I found them in an antique shop a few months back and finally got a chance to scan them. The booksellers along the Seine are my favorite. Oh Paris…
Oh The Memories…

Whenever I find myself admiring a colorful Pucci scarf I am reminded of a certain afternoon in which Jane Lilly Warren and I jumped the train to Milan for lunch. We lived in Switzerland’s lake region just north of the fashion capital and made the short trip often (detours to Como were another favorite!). After a scrumptious lunch (proscuitto and melon anyone?) we ducked into Pucci and each splurged on a small twill scarf. Jane wore hers during one of Matchbook’s shoots in New York this month and seeing it again made me smile. Such a sweet memento of our years abroad… Now, when to make a return visit? I think a Matchbook field trip is in order! Who’s with me?
