Everything played part in the inspiration process, from the food to the lifestyles, and even the tacky souvenirs that littered the streets. The landscape and architecture was spectacular, the city from the sacré-course went on for miles.
The shopping experience was one to remember, with high end designers shops to wonderful small vintage shops. There were also shops, such as Colette, that were more concept stores, inviting students and aspiring creatives into the shop with their wonderful displays.
I really did enjoy my visit there, and I take inspiration from the strangest of things. My favourite shop was a quirky little place containing all sorts of bits and bobs, mostly vintage toys and finds. I loved the contents but I also loved the atmosphere. It felt like I had stepped back in time, it was a cosy, wood panelled place, I stayed there for a long time.
