new york fashion week

so ... i just found out a couple of days ago that my hairdresser is NOT going to be there when we go to Townsville on Friday... eek!  what??? where IS he???

'oh, sorry', he's off to New York Fashion Week came the reply...

silence ...   oh    ...  i remember now... he did tell me that he would be away in February...

well, not disastrous  ~  someone else can do my hair, but now i'm insanely jealous that he gets to be in New York ... backstage doing hair for the Sass and Bide shows as well as a few other fabulous Australian designers... and he gets to be in  New York ...did i mention that already?

i looked around for some images so here's what he might experience ...

... have YOU ever been to New York for Fashion week???  Tell me how fabulous it was!    next time, i might see if he needs anyone to wash out the 'hairsprayed' combs or just hold the scissors...

... an action packed week ...

 ... in new york ...

Ralph Lauren Flagship store - Paris

As usual, I was looking around on Pinterest the other night and spotted a gorgeous picture with the caption... Ralph Lauren ...  

 I followed it back to the source and discovered it was part of an amazing post on a blog called Belgian Pearls

Greet from Belgian Pearls has kindly allowed me to use her post on my blog (as I'm such a die-hard fan of Mr Ralph Lauren). 

 A special thank you to Greet and I hope you enjoy the post ...

 

173, Boulevard St.Germain, Paris

This is the address of the new flagship store of Ralp Lauren in Paris!

The building has been restored over the past four years and includes six floors of retail space, including a restaurant in the old stable’s called RALPH’S which will strive to serve the best burgers and fries in the city!!!

Sharing pictures of that restaurant is what I wanted to do today! I love the exterior of the building as well as the interior of the restaurant!

Let’s have a look…

The entrance.

The courtyard of the ‘hôtel particulier’.

What do you think? Can you imagine sitting here to have dinner?

( ...yes ... I could!)

I love the way of mixing the seats, upholstered in the typical RL fabric, with the wrought iron French chairs.

Fabulous door!

And on below some pictures of the interior of the restaurant in the RL spirit of course.

This post wouldn’t be complete if I hadn’t posted some images of the store!

So ...when you're next in Paris... don't forget to pop into RALPH’S, boulevard St. Germain,

sitting in these cozy seats, while talking and…

…tasting this chilled sweet pea soup with minted crème fraîche.

Or…

…enjoying this ‘frozen margarita’, the favorite cocktail of Mr Ralph Lauren.

Cheers!

See you in Paris !!!

... aaah ... lovely  - thank you Greet.
