Chink Flutes With A French!

Champagne connoisseurs among you will adore this sparkling
Français!


Mailly Champagne was classified Grand Cru in 1920. The secret
lies in the Mailly grapes that are rare and expensive and usually
reserved for the finest champagne cuvées.

We spotted this fine bubbly lovely tucked in a rustical wooden
box in the heart of Provence.
 

Our credo: Vivre comme Dieu en France! ... À la vôtre!

Out and About


In south France, little fashion gems are
squeezed into most unsusceptible nooks
and mousy alcoves. When out and about,
keep your eyes open for the latest
trends and styles. This hidden couture
mecca is heart-warming -- literally!

We love Sonia Rykiel's iconic knitwear,
her trademark skinny sweaters with raised
armholes in distinctive colors and
striped patterns!

SONIA RYKIEL. 5 Rue Du Castillet,
66000 Perpignan

A Chanel State of Mind

Rue Cambon is more than a luxurious stretch in the heart
of Paris -- it represents the beginning of the World of Chanel.

It's here, where in 1913 fashion legend and iconic créateur 
de mode, Gabrielle Chanel established her first workshop, 
opened her first boutique, and presented her first ground
breaking haute couture. It's the birthplace of the legendary
LBD & LBJ.

To this day, Chanel's spirit is still palpable in her legacy. 
And sometimes one can sense her strutting down the famous 
marble stairs of her studio...

Don your Chanel garb and saunter down the street! Très chic!
31 Rue Cambon, Paris

Design With a Twist

These two examples are remnants of a truly beautiful era prevailing all over Europe in the
30s. The design's floral forms and swinging lines are signature features of Art Nouveau,
symbolizing the advent of an entirely rejuvenated and a flourishing, vivacious Zeitgeist of that particular time. Find stunning beautiful pieces of this glorious design all over Paris. 

We love La Belle Époque! What is your favorite design era?

In Full Bloom

These flourishing pieces of poetry and romance
evoke spring fever even in November. Inspired by
Monsieur Dior's sumptuous gardens in Milly-la-Forêt,
France these little gems – assembled and painted by
hand – are sparkling pieces of art for hand, heart,
and all senses.

We love Dior's botanical twists from bud to blossom
and the créateur's artistic savoir-faire!

Which is your favorite bouquet?

Changes

I'm a fashion person, and fashion is not only about clothes, it's about all kind of change.
I like to remodel my wardrobe entirely with the changing of seasons. Intentionally I choose different fabrics and styles.

Let's embrace changes! Embrace the continual renewal of inspiration
coming from everywhere.

How do you like to switch it up?

Color Us Happy This Fall

One of the best things about Autumn is the fact that color abounds. From the leaves changing from green, yellow, orange to brown to the twinkling sparks of holiday lights all around, there's no denying that just because summer has left us, doesn't mean that color sticks around...especially when it comes to fashion! We love these colorful looks below and are so inspired by the rainbow of color. Rushing to the closet RIGHT now!  



Awesome blossom!

Our blog is back in the business of being awesome, Friendly Followers! CWPR has been on a whirlwind of busy PR adventures, but we are excited to get our blogging on some more.  We've been planting some new seeds so that our blog will blossom & grow!
