Get Your Fish Therapy
Written by Priscilla Lalisse-Jespersen   
fish-therapyThe first fish therapy center, located near the Pantheon, has opened up in Paris. This is where you go to have small fish exfoliate your feet. I’m not kidding! Your fish therapy consists of letting your feet be surrounded by um... fish... followed up with massage therapy and a pedicure. Hmmm….any takers? Believe it or not but these centers already exist in Asia (believable) and America (they must be in be LA). The lady at the accueil assured me that the fish involved are not piranhas (I’m still traumatized by the 1978 film).

Jeanne Suica is not only gorgeous but she has gorgeous taste as well. Elegant and totally savvy when it comes to vintage clothing and items, Jeanne is the person to call when you need help finding a special piece, or for finding out what's in your closet!

Mouthwatering Babouska
Written by Priscilla Lalisse   
image0001gucci.jpgLooking for your new fall handbag? Then search no more. On a recent visit to Gucci , look what we found: this black python wonder. Isn't it grand? It has leather trimming, suede fringe, a zippper/button closure, and a removable handle. It's inspired by the Russian Babouska doll (also known as the stacking doll) or in this case, more precisely, the Dedoushka doll. Love it? The babouska hobo will set you back 1550?. Order it online if you can't get over to rue Saint Honoré.
 
Paris Summer Sales 2008
Written by Priscilla Lalisse   
image0001printemps_solde.jpgIt?s on! The sales (les soldes) started yesterday (June 25). This is one of the best times to shop in Paris (the other big sales period is in winter). Two of my favorite places to hit are Les Printemps and Les Galeries Layfayette , where you can find a little bit of everything. This year the prices seem to even lower than usual for a debut, as some stores don?t bring out the big price reduction guns until well into it. That translates as hurry!
