The Journal
Najlaa and James had their dream wedding in Versailles, next to Paris. The lovely couple invited a small group of friends and family who went after the ceremony to a lovely restaurant to have a lunch. It always feels better to meet the couple before the wedding. We did, we met on the wedding of Safia and Reda! And we are living in a small world; James used to live in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands, the tiny village I’m from.
Strolling through Paris with my camera is what I adore! Especially the sunday morning’s are my favorites. It’s calm because nobody is outside till +/- 11:00. The perfect time for me to take photos. Especially for places with a lot of tourists like Montmartre. The sun is still rising, so the light is gold and perfect! Saint Germain is my favorite area because it’s always calm and very beautiful.
Piaget presented it’s new collection ‘Sunlight Journey‘ in their boutique at rue de Paix in Paris. The creations bloom in dazzling colours. Sunlight journey is an escapade punctuated by the path of the sun and the moods it creates, alternating between gentle meanderings, joyful effervescence and dazzling radiance. The collection is echoing the art of living. My favorite stones are the sapphire (like the ring of Princes Diana) and a Ruby. Thank you Piaget for this tour and the absolutely beautiful book about this collection.
Paris Couture Week is there. Sakina presented her first Haute Couture bag collection this week and I was lucky to her assistant and PR manager for the last 6 months. We have worked very hard to make this presentation a succes. The theme of this collection is Amazonian dreams. You can read here more about the presentation and collection. I’ve been also lucky that I’ve seen all her presentation till now since she started. You can see more about her previous collections here: Bridal, Pink dresses, Red dresses and her defilé in Beirut, Lebanon.
One of the great sponsors was Au Pays de la Fleur d’Oranger, a parfum brand from the south of France.
Paris hides some great blossom trees. I love to see how the wind is blowing away the little pink leaves of the flowers. The trees fits perfectly the Parisian architecture like Square Gabriel Pierné. But discovering Parc de Sceaux, is a dream of blossom tree lovers. A garden full of pink trees; so you can already guess that especially many girls are visiting this magical garden to take some nice photos. I love the parc as much as I love the little village which I had to pass by from the train station to the parc. I imagined myself living there, in that quiet, lovely neighborhood with streets smelling like flowers.
