City Farm, Parisian style

While I absolutely love the California sunshine, sometimes it’s hard to compete with the French elegance that is Paris, even if it was 30 degrees..for 7 days straight.

    

We just returned home from attending the Maison D’ Objet Trade Show in Paris, full of inspiration and creative products.  My favorite part of our French travels were the food, the fun and the future we get a birds eye view of, as we know European markets set the trends.  While it would be unfair to share all of my secrets of the products we’re soon to unveil–I will divulge this: I hope your sweet tooth and your homes are ready!

The beauty of getting lost in specialty shops captured me most. Pictured below is the cozy olive oil, tapenade and honey store Epicerie Provencale, Premiere Pression Provence. While exploring around the West Bank and Le marais, we strolled (coffee and pastry in hand, of course) in here, leaving with arms full of herb, spice, butter and aromatic flavored cooking oils. Certainly a shop to be seen out on your next travel to Paris!

                      

HINT: Future product inspiration and clues may be hidden in this blog. We’re back and excited to show you more country chic style this Spring!
