Today's Paris illustration sees us taking a breather on the bank with an Eiffel Tower view after a taxing morning of flower shopping.  Assuming we're smart enough to turn around momentarily, that is.

For problems such as this, we should pray.  And on that note ...

Happy Francophile Friday to you !

Today's Paris illustration beckons us inside this charming old Herboristerie. 

I have no idea what kind of herbals one might find inside, but this cat and French bulldog look relaxed enough to coax me into procuring a little something to help me unwind.  Shall we find a delicate rose petal tisane to brew?  And on that note ...

Happy Francophile Friday to you!

Ruffling feathers is one thing.  Ruffling fur is entirely another.

Today's fluffy fashion illustration sees us all dressed up in Paris with somewhere to go.  Negotiating permission to leave, however, could take a little time.  Arm wrestle, anyone?  And on that note ...

Happy Fluffy Francophile Friday to you !

PS:  To add this pretty print to your collection, you'll find plenty of options here.

Fashionable Friday : Santorini Stroll Sartoriale

Fashionable Friday : Santorini Stroll Sartoriale

 Necessity is the mother of linguistic invention.

Today's illustration is set in Greece, not Italy, so I've taken poetic license for today's post title by using the Italian form of the word sartorial, that being sartoriale.  Somehow, Santorini Stroll ραπτικός just doesn't have the same ring. {And let's not ask why I didn't just stick with the English form of the word sartorial, that being sartorial.  That's way too much explaining to do.}

So come, let us hoist our geographically-appropriate Boho skirts and seek out some shade and a geographically-appropriate drink.  I think I'd like mine with a miniature umbrella, geographically-appropriate or otherwise.  And on that note ...

Happy Fashionable Friday to you !

Now, if you ask me, a freestanding macaron cart is just begging for trouble.  And a joyride.

Today's illustration of a sweet macaron spot in Paris is loaded with zero-calorie eye candy ~ and a health-inspection-safe kitty cat for no particular reason other than that's how we roll around here. 

We're dressed for the occasion, so throw on your best leopard-print trackie dacks and joggers and be ready for a quick getaway.  And on that note ...

Happy Francophile Friday to you!
