This must be Christmas in September. Yesterday I was telling you about the Paris trip giveaway (it's not too late). And today come two new wonderful giveaways.
These days it's a miracle if we get to pay for anything at all.
Drumroll number one: Kit Colson, the interior designer who blogs at Chic Provence had all kinds of lovely things to say about my novel Hidden in Paris and is hosting a giveaway of authographed copies of the book. So run there to enter, for yourself or for your grouchy boss or mother in law in the hope that a fun novel set in Paris might bring a smile to their disapproving faces.
Since I won't enter that giveaway myself, which would be really pathetic and would make no sense considering my walls are lined with copies of Hidden in Paris. Drum roll number two:
DRESSES!!!!
I rarely, ever get excited about clothes. My husband says it's because I look all wrong in them and that I should take it all off at all time. But these dresses I LOVE. Sabrina over at Barefoot in the Orchard is hosting a giveaway for a smoking hot red dress by Shabby Apple. I did not know this designer but one after the other, each dress is absolutely perfect in its own way. And reasonable too, most of them in the $50 to $80 range. And I love that they're arranged by themes.
My favorite Shabby Apple dresses are the ones with a french flair of course. In the oh la la collection I present you:
L'Artiste :
and la tour Eiffel:
Aren't those French dresses arorable? The model looks so thrilled something is even squirting out of her you know what. I wonder if that dress would have the same effect on me?
Okay ladies, get busy and enter those giveaways.
Holy crap, dude...only you could talk about something like Shabby Apple dresses, and make me choke!!!
And congrats about your book!! Apparently I am so far out of the loop I am not even on the same planet!!!

Question for the Francophile: is it de rigeur to wear striped tops in Paris?

Absolutely: natives like to be able to spot tourists easily. Its like wearing an I heart New York t-shirt in New York. No, Im kidding, stripes are timelessly French and everyone wears them.
