OH PARIS......// decor lifestyle

PARIS IN THE SPRINGTIME





All the world is drawn to Paris for many different reasons. The city of love, cobble stoned streets, artist , the Notre Dome , Versailles ....  need I say more. It is the city of lights or dreams, known for its
famous French cuisine, French champagne and wines  and river Seine. The one city the perhaps has seen more artist, writers , poets then any other. 




But  lets see what else is interesting about the city.


ONLY A RITZ WILL DO


Well my love of  art and design is one reason I would go to this beautiful city..  (and of course people watching along the Champs Elysee)  but another reason is the upcoming HOTEL RITZ auction.
The hotel is undergoing some renovations , so furnishings, rugs, light fixtures are on the auction block. A momento from the Ritz would be oh la la.. 


I can only imagine there are many people that would love to have a piece s from this historical hotel.
To think of all the famous people that have had the chance to visit this magnificent place is numerous.
Politicians, celebrities and royals all have lounged in the hotel (once owned by Al Fayad family).

So what to see and find on the auction list is my dream holiday.... maybe  a simple dinner set or nice bathrobe  will do.   from the RITZ.  




Yes i can dream......... life is to short not too! 


Ciao for now .

The bold big floral print on the dress was wow!  I loved it!  And she looked beautiful in it.  The other gowns  were lovely too.   Men in floral print slacks to fun shoes .  Something for everyone tastes.  Photo via Getty images  Here you can see more from the gala.   Via bbc  https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-68938637

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

 Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people .  Festivals , Films  and Fashion  The festival season is winding down,  but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it!  The return of Clooney on screen in  Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight.  Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show!  Of course there were other stars on the red carpet  but no outstanding dresses .  Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not  sure what I be tempted to watch.  Julia  Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment.  One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan  about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
