J'adore Paris!!
Ok. Without a doubt, I could live in Paris. I love it more and more with each visit. While the first 24 hours there were a tad hectic (to say the least), I rewarded myself with "A Few Days Down" in my favorite city.
Sundance to New York. New York to a red-eye flight to Paris and straight off the plane into
a photo shoot for Vanity Fair was deserving of at least a couple of good days of shopping. And so the fun/work began.....
Paris has some of the best vintage shopping in my opinion (a personal favorite). I must say, I was pretty thankful to Sophia Coppola (who was kind enough to mention a few of her favorite shops in a New York Times article I read a while back) and I ended up following her "lead" around town. I am also always thankful for concierges who are somehow able to conjure up big enough boxes to ship stuff home. That way, I leave feeling good about going home with the same amount of luggage I started with........
It's definitely the city in which I want to spend time writing future music. The flea market!! The wine and cheese!!! The language!!! I made a pact with my friend Ed that I would live in Paris sometime within the next 2 years. Here's hoping I can keep my word. I'm starting french lessons as soon as I'm home for more than a day.
OK, OK.....I'm off to get ready for the "Because I Said So" Premiere. My best friends from NYC (Raina and Heather) are in town to attend with me.....
VERY exciting.
