Glimpse of fall

First look at fall, Chanel at 31 rue Cambon, Paris.

 

 

 

Printemps, one of the city's premiere department stores, has a new look. I like the sleek futuristic escalators and chandelier comprised largely of tassles in fall hues.

 

Must be quite the feat to change the center display, which extends several floors.

If you're a handbag collector like me, you may find this little video amusing. Have you ever wondered what to do with your handbag dust bags? This whole group of videos is absolutely (and unintentionally) hilarious.

Fun to see the new fall windows. It certainly looks like neutrals are still the color to wear. The tassels were a clever idea for the chandelier. And the videos were entertaining. Whoever is she?

Tara, thanks for this glimpse of cooler weather. Born and raised a mid-westerner I have not quite acclimated to these southern temps and I miss, miss, miss autumn weather. I love the creamy and warm-toned tassles against the sleek steel backdrop. Excellent photos!
