We are back from a very, very romantic trip to Gay Paris.
We did it all...
- Dinner on a Bateau Parisienne on the Seine.
- Fabulous Passementerie inside the Opera house.
- La Tour Eiffel at night.
- Furnishing fabric shops including Pierre Frey, Sahco Hesslein & Robert Allen.
- My friend Greg Everingham, the same as ever, cute dimples & all.
- Gallery Vivienne, where Richard had lived for a while in the 70's.
- A fabulously hilarious dinner at Richard's friend Lizz's.
- Morrocan dinner with Liz & William Fairbank and a very cute french bulldog at the next table.
- Lunch at the 'Amelie Cafe'. Café des deux Moulins
- The Decorative arts Museum complete with Jean Lanvin's apartment interior.
- A shop that sold ribbon for medals. (I had a very hard time choosing the 50cm pieces I managed to buy from the very crabby shop assistant).
- The Joyce Ma shop with an outfit made of black & white check, with a 3 dimensional deer across the shoulders made in the same fabric with matching tiny deer antler hat. Her knitted humans as brooch seen here. Also her white feather concoction. Stuff I would love to make but never thought there could possibly be a market for it.
- There are more photo's over at my Flickr page.

Great photos. Reminds me of our trip to Paris to see Sylvie Guillem dance. We met her. Lovely person!
I hope to return to that great city! Even just to have a drink in the Lipp brasserie
Simon, I'm very impressed.
Darn....we'll have to go back for the Lipp brasserie.
