For decades I've been in a love affair with the French. I am enamored with the way the French live. I love the timeless, chic, and effortless style of French women. The historic architecture (I’m a sucker for a Haussmannian building) on every street boggles my mind. Walking through the streets of Paris or sitting on the beach along the Côte d'Azur makes my heart go pitter patter. This fascination and romanticization of France didn’t happen overnight, it started while I was a mere child and has continued to grow with each passing year. I currently live in the San Francisco Bay Area and I can say without a doubt that my heart absolutely lies in Paris.
