If you’re heading to Paris, check out the sales (soldes). 60% off. Now I know the dollar vs. the euro is just ridiculous right now but when you’re shopping for European goods in Europe and it’s 60% off you might be surprised. Those Anne Demeulemeester shoes might be a bargain in Europe compared to the price we pay in the U.S. to import the shoes. Visit my favorite store. For all of you Angelenos, it’s the Maxfields of Paris — L’eclaireur  www.leclaireur.com. If you want the full shopping itinerary for Paris you’ll have to contact me for my day rates. I can’t give away the farm here.
