Paris shopping

[Londoner13]

i wouldn't mind

I'll be in Paris on the 3 and 4 of December and I'll be staying in a hotel near Triangle d'or and just steps away from Montaigne avenue. I'll have not more than 2 hours per day free. I want to do some shopping for Christian Louboutin, Chanel, Lanvin, YSL and Balenciaga.
Any tips?
Are these shops near by my hotel?
Until what time boutiques are open?

I'll be in Paris from the 23rd-31st of December. Understandably most things will be closed on Christmas Day but is there anything else to do? And are there any other public holidays in that period? Also do they have big department store sales at the end of December?

aris-
CL has two stores, one in the 7th arrond, and one in the 1st, i dont think they are that far from avenue montaigne but considering you dont have a lot of free time, you need to go by car.
Lanvin is on rue st.honore (or faubourg st honore)
balenciaga is very close to ave montaigne, just on ave george V
chanel is on ave montaigne
YSL is on faubourg st honore (YSL and Lanvin are very close- there is also a chanel right infront of YSL)
close usually close at 7pm (i think 6pm on saturdays)

Does April 77 has an own store in Paris? I'm going to paris soon and I really want some pieces from the April 77 collection. If so, which stores stock April 77 and how much does a pair of jeans costs?

And when do the sales start in Paris? I'll stay there in the days between Christmas and New Year's Eve.

Colette stocks them =)

 

[Frenger]

Yes, i know, but I'm not going to waste my time there. people i know who have been there said the store was a major disappointment, and i don't have that much time either.

 

[Beautiful Stranger]

alright

(du setter ikke pris på rådene mine )

 

[Frenger]

(joo, det gjør jeg kjære!! :-D men så må jeg også forklare hvorfor jeg ikke skal innom colette. )

Well, I don't know which brands you are interested in but by now most sample sales are over.
