Style Memories : Paris








 Now a trip to probably my second favourite city in the world, Paris! I am always so in love with this city every time I visit, everything is just too beautiful. I have frequented this city a fair few times now but these pictures where from my 18th birthday, my mum had whisked me away for a long weekend in the city. We fell into many sugar traps on our travels, be it Angelina's hot chocolate or the Macaroons at Laduree I alway's get so excited for the food when I'm in France. 
One of my favourite places to go is the Place de le Concorde, the green and gold fountains and lamp posts just encapsulate Paris for me (and of course remind me of The Devil Wears Prada). Every time I visit I always get a picture sat on one of the fountains.  
For this outfit I'm wearing my French connection coat, it has a slight military style to it with the gold buttons either side which I really like. I paired it with some Zara leggings and my trusty Topshop Mighty boots... RIP, you served me well. 
Im unsure where the top is from, but my scarf is from ZARA, and I'm quickly learning from looking back at these pictures is that you cannot go wrong with a scarf from Zara! 
Last but not least my RB's, I try to branch out to other brands of sunnies but I just can't!

Paris: Day 4
































The last day was the most exciting. Disney Land. The place where dreams come true. The last time I visited I was 2 so I was extremely excited to return.
We bought 2 park tickets, one for the Studios and the other for Disney Land itself.  Both where amazing and the studios are a great addition to the park and have the better rides in my opinion.  What ever the age, if your in Paris a trip is essential.

Paris day 2&3




Day 2 ended here. Pretty amazing, we clambered up to the sacre coeur just before the sun started to dissapear leaving a orange glow over the city, but before all that... 












Continuing on our chocolate voyage through Parie we visited the Lindor shop where little chocolate balls wrapped in gold, red and blue lined the walls along with chocolate Eiffel towers with chefs at the back making rich hot chocolate and mini desserts. 
We then went to Laduree along the Champs Elysees for macaroons, all the shops where covered with hot pink and gold leaf macaroons for the launch of Nina Ricci's new fragrance. 






From here we went to the Moulin Rouge.




Photos aren't allowed in the 'club' so this was the only one I could sneak but yes all of these where drank...
To be honest the show was a little dissapointing, the atmosphere was amazing but I was expecting more :(













We watched the sun set on another amazing day.


The next day we kept it fairly relaxed, we visited an amazing antique market on the outskirts of Paris, which literally has everything. 


Then we went to do some more touristy stuff..










We walked all along the river to the Louvre, through the gardens and back again before heading back for tea. 
We had an extra day but unfortunately I wasn't feeling great so we did a bit of shopping and headed home. 
Thanks for an amazing trip Paris! 
See you soon.  


Other tips...

Go and watch the sunset, we went to the Sacre Coure which was amazing but extremely busy so next time we're going to hunt out a spot a bit more secluded!

Explore back streets, they're so beautiful and you never know what you may find.

Take pictures of everything, even looking back I've forgotten some things that I wish I had captured!
