    ABOUT THIS EPISODE
    This week we're in Paris. That's right. I've got a baguette and a dream, so let's see what treasures I can find in the Marché aux Puces de Saint-Ouen. Did I bring home something special? You'll have to see.

    Magnifique! Your shopping expeditions AND your look - that red lip works so well with your hair! I hope you have/had a spectacularly fabulous time in Paris, I’m so sorry about your friend’s ankle and your sacrifice to the streets of Paris, and the unfortunate unaffordability of many of the beautiful things at the Marché aux Puces - glad you found that (exceptionellement chaud) guy’s little shop.

    Katy! In Paris-oh lawdy! This helped make my day. I'm so happy that you went to Paris and shopped in those antique shops! That is high on my list and you've given me inspiration to do it this year! I was actually virtually shopping when you were walking around.I love art deco and when you mentioned pink coupe glasses that almost sent me over the edge. The whole vid almost sent me over the edge! You are so funny too-wax stamp to send a ransom note or love letter.

    Happy that you had so much fun. So many fantastic collectables in Paris. You really get a sense of what/where American designers got some of their inspiration to make their own great designs. And fun to see that indeed they are collecting 40’s 50’s era designs which got its start in America. A whole world of collecting. Lots of good brass came from India and China. That would be another fun trip. Hope you found something for Babs & safe travels ❤

    Aha! You got to the other side of the big pond. The Marché au Puces really is a fantastic place to roam all day. It is also hazardous for your wallet. Not because of the expensive pieces, their price in itself is enough to scare you away, but because of those little, reasonably priced trinkets. Before you know your bag is full of them and your wallet is empty...
