In Conclusion

You'll notice I added pictures- more or less related to my posts ;)

Happy to be back in NY and actually preparing for my final summer holiday to Western NY to visit my grandmother.

Now that I have my pictures here, a little summary with visuals (oh my!).
First, France seems to have a really nice amount of lines that fall within a moderate price range. Not cheap, but not "designer expensive" either. They don't seem to have the copious amounts of sales that we do so maybe this is their response. Footwear is one category where this is extremely useful (how expensive are the shoes that you are coveting for fall?). SO MANY BEAUTIFUL FLAT BOOTS under $200.00. Above is an example of a few that I was oogling. Not the best pic but I was quickly instructed to put away the camera from a salesgirl. I always hate getting busted for being a blogger.

Next, a shot of the store with the random antiques that will forever haunt my mind- only the bins outside but you get the idea I hope.

Below, another favorite discovery, a musis box store! It wasn't opened when I found it, so I just gazed inside. Tons of amazing little pieces and a whole selection of songs that can be inserted into the box. What an amazing gift that would make!

Thanks for putting up for me over these few weeks. Ready to roll into fashion week/s...
