Happy Bastille Day!


Happy Bastille Day! Technically, it's tomorrow (July 14th) but I'm celebrating today on the blog like I always do. 

I spent this past Saturday with Alexa and Kristin to check out Parisian spots in the city! We kicked things off by heading to the unofficial "Little Paris" street! (Which should totally be an official thing and in fact, there's a petition for it. Read more here.) We got brunch at Maman, walked around the block before stopping at Clic Bookstore and Gallery, and then headed over to Sézane L'Appartement New York for a bit of shopping. 

After that, we took a coffee and tea break at Ceci Cela Patisserie (I highly recommend the honey lavender latte and Kristin said the pistachio madeleine was delicious!) and then ended our day by going to two bookstores (not French-related but we can't hang out and not go book shopping).

I just miss Paris so much so I love being able to find places in New York that remind of me of the city of lights. And of course, getting to experience them with friends!
