French Fridays Week 26

Sault and welcome to French Fridays week 26 where I am sharing everything French that I’ve loved the past week in style, food, beauty, finds, and favorite places in Paris to know.

French Style

This is one of my favorite looks from Celine which I go back to season after season for fall. It’s so classic and chic and MANGO has a very affordable similar version. Wear it with this tissue turtleneck when the days start to get cooler and finish with some black boots and a brown leather bag.

French Finds

TWO COPPER BUTTER DISHES

When I was in Paris I went to E. Dehillerin for this copper butter warmer which had been on my list for a while. This butter warmer was served to me in a restaurant on one trip to Paris and I had been looking for it ever since.

There is a less expensive version from Williams Sonoma, it’s such a beautiful piece to elevate any dinner table. I don’t think you have to use it only on special occasions either, just put some butter in there and leave it on your table. Elegant and beautiful.

Favorite Places In Paris To Know

If you are a fan of kitchen stores of any kind, you should know about Les Drogueries d’Aujour d’hui. It’s technically a Parisian drugstore carrying kitchen cleaning items, tools, and garden accessories. Besides being a drugstore to find all sorts of items, it’s so cute and charming with packaged soap, hanging kitchen tools, and lots of kitchen linens.

Located:  86 Rue du Bac, 75007 Paris
