Paris is always a good idea, but it’s the best idea in spring! The unmistakable French architecture boasts the most elegant squares and buildings, transforming the scenery around you into a sophisticated open air museum of superstructures. Speaking of which, the Louvre Museum is inarguably the most enchanting museum of the city, with the unusual glass pyramids designed by Chinese-American architect I.M. Pei forming an unusual contrast with the classic French renaissance style of the rest of the building. With the first sun rays of spring bouncing off the glass panels and the beige Lutetian limestone, a stroll around the 1st arrondissement is a feast for the eye. As are these refined ensembles, treating you to a ton-sur-ton palette that incorporates different plaid prints and textures. French flair is perfectly embodied with the quintessential beret, worn over a carefully combed fingerwave hairstyle. Her beige turtleneck and palazzo pants are flanked by his medley of vintage plaids in the same hues, featuring an oversized coat and wide legged slacks. Let’s see what else April has in store for us in Paris!
