It was cold and drizzly and grey but it's still the most beautiful and charming and deeply cultural city in the world. I always feel like I am traveling through time when I visit there. I don't want New York, my home sweet home, to get jealous but it's so easy to fall in love with Paris. I've been posting images from past trips but here are a few from this past weekend. It's amazing to me how the city is so wonderfully nostalgic even though it is also so modern and it seems to be constantly evolving.
*Le sigh*
This is not the most stylish outfit in the world but that 2008 rabbit fur hat, old reliable 1999 pashmina and God knows when wool coat that has been lonely and unworn in my mother's closet kept me toasty in the Paris winter wind. I'm wearing about 10 layers underneath...my arms look like a line backer's.
What's your favorite city?

Just came across your blog after you left a comment on mine. I love your photographs, especially those of your trips to Paris! Ahh, you're making me reminisce again. (I hope I spelled that right). I'm adding you to my blogroll. Thanks for the compliments! :)
Wow, so beautiful!
As far as a favorite city, my friend just asked me that the other day, and it was the first time I'd been asked... I think I'd have to say my favorite city so far is Florence. It's so rich in history and full of good food and just, I don't know, wonderful. :)
beautiful! i love paris in the fall..the greys and rain
you have capture it....
more please!!
Hay algunas que son increíbles. Es bueno ver cómo vas evolucionando con cada viaje y registras las cosas de distinta manera. Seguramente en los lugares donde pudiste visitar más de una vez, pudiste darte el gusto de estar cada vez más relajado y con menos apuro en cada viaje. Eso hace que uno pueda mirar las cosas de distinta forma y por supuesto, fotografiarlas mejor.
My all-time favourite city is "London" but places such as Paris and Sidney keep a great place in my memories. One pending place is Praga (beautiful, dreamy and old city).
Nice to hear you had a great time in Europe. And despite the fact I failed doing your contest, I will buy your book... looking forward to see more of your pics! ;_)
Kitten, I was so happy to find you. Looking forward to seeing more:)
Shannalee, I've never been to Florence. Unfortunately for us we've had to cancel our last two planned trips but we're hoping to make it soon! :)
Nadia, thank you, dear! more to come. promise!
Santiago, tienes razon. Conozco bien y cada vez que viajo veo algo nuevo y de distinta manera. Prague es un lugar precioso. Debes conocer esa cuidad de tanta historia y fuerza.
aww-so beautiful--i know exactly where you are--i've heard it's terribly cold there so keep bundled and drink many many hot chocolates or drink a LOT of wine...are you still there? if so try to go to AUX Tonneaux for lunch or dinner..it's on rue Montorgueuil for a very typical brasserie---they have the most delicious duck confit and steak tartare or just good fun to have a drink and some pate and warm up...if not--next time and welcome home?!
i've sat here for a few minutes trying to determine what my fave city is. i've been many places and i can't think of ONE city that i love over another. but i do know of a general, vague place that i heart. highway 81 in VA. for 4 years during college, i would take that road to and from school and while it's a rather boring ride, if you look past the farmland, cows and into the distance, you can see the mountains and it's beautiful. the blue ridge mountains, shenandoah valley area, those are my fave places and when i see those mountains, i feel like i'm coming home.
i love paris all year round! your photos are STUNNING dear!
I've never been to Paris, but was fortunate to once visit Cassis. Sailboats, caprese salad, and red wine made my one day there uber fabulous!
Someday I will definitely get myself to Paris.
My favourite city, my home-away-from-home is most definitely Paris.
*sigh*
Love it!
oh, where have I been? These are phenomenal. So moody. I love them.
Favorite city: hmmm. NYC is pretty awesome.
Paris in the winter...i love it!
