So here's a question for you? What is (if you've been) or would be (if you dream of going) your favourite thing to do in Paris? And what should a design/interiors/colour/pattern/texture addict like me be sure not to miss?
I'm thinking I'll swing by here on my wanderings ....

And while I've been to Paris many times (oh I do miss the heady days of cheap startup airlines in the UK, when you could be whisked off to Barcelona for less than the cost of a deep-fried Mars bar), I've never visited this ...

My favourite fabric house in all the world has a Paris showroom, so it'd be rude not to drop in and say hi ...

I'd love to eat at an art nouveau or art deco restaurant or cafe, so let me know if you have any suggestions! What with the whole gluten & dairy free thing, and being a vegetarian (when in France, I eat a lot of omelettes!), I might just be ordering the 'potage du jour', but hey, who cares if I get to soak up surroundings like these!

So if I've whet your appetite for more of the French capital, why not pop on over to Gifts of Serendipity for today's six senses tour, which just happens to be about Paris (serendipitous indeed!) And don't forget the beautiful range of photographs from Little Brown Pen, brought to us by Let's Go Moerkabout just a few weeks ago ...
La vie est belle! A bientot ... Nx

Have a wonderfully amazing time for me. Can't believe you haven't been to Sacre Coeur or the Louvre, two of my very favourite places. But the thing I love most about Paris is walking. I think, hands down, it's the best walking city in the world. Or should I say promenading? Whatever it is, enjoy it all. And Scotland. And Singapore. Yes, envy :)
Bon Voyage lovely one, can't wait to see all that you experience on your adventure!

Musee d'Orsay and Musee d'Orangerie are both great! A boat trip down the Seine gives a look at different architecture along the banks too! Have a great time!
Have fun! You must go into the Louvre. I could lose myself for the entire day (or three) in there.
LOVE the chairs to the left in the circus photo.
