Early Eiffel Views
Trocadero, Paris We headed to the stairs of Trocadero at 8am to capture the views of the Eiffel tower without massive crowds of people. The air was misty, there were a few wedding photographers on site and the sun rays were already warming us up. I’m wearing my favourite off the shoulder shirt, with flared…

Stepping into ‘Old Paris’- Le Marais
Le Marais that is often refered to as “old Paris” is a neighbourhood to get lost in. Not only being one of the oldest areas in Paris, it holds the charm of a bygone where the small alleys fill with vintage shops, art galleries, boutiques, bakeries and cocktail bars.

Parisian Lunches & Flamingos
Avenue Montaigne, Paris As our hotel was directly on avenue Montaigne, we only had a short distance to L’ Avenue which almost became our go to lunch spot. I absolutely love their tuna tartar, garlic escargots and of course the classic foie gras. People watching over a glass of rosé on the terrace was a…

Pastel Doors & Macaron Gelato
Paris, France I would say an evening well spent, is when you stroll past these pastel coloured doors in Le Marais and indulge in flower shaped ice creams in the warm evening sun. This colourful delight is a summer perfection that just happened to match my flower dress and the macaron is like a cherry…

A stroll through Antibes Market
Antibes, Côte d’Azur Antibes, an art-laden town famous to Picasso and Ernst filled with cobblestone streets dressed with flowers, exquisite patisseries and colourful boutiques. Here you see the perfect crisp white shirts drying off window sills and pastel coloured buildings, 16th century ramparts that lead you to the town square. We strolled through the highlight…
