Jet lag now slept away. Sweet memories of Miami heat, Key West magic and New York buzz kindling my heart. Here I am… in the city of my utmost affection. Paris. My dear. My all. How good it feels to let the metropolises take me over. Surrender to its tricks. Let Paris’ fashions imbibe me into a lovely, almost ridiculous-approaching femininity.
Look what the macaron town provoked – yummy beige satin, alluring black roses, ruffles and long leg lines… Paris here I am! Back.
Also returned to my dulcet blogging routines. Met up with the cute Chicagoan blogger Meghan - along with her sweet galpal – on a visit to Paris. The time of a delicious afternoon flavored with juicy discussions and bubbling rosé. Equally pirouetting around my favorite fashion and other blogs. I adore you dear ones – every single one!

Naturally this fashion fairy had to venture into the Greenwich Village and prance in Carrie Bradshaw’s footsteps. The area is very picturesque – a true peaceful haven in the hustle and bustle of a metropolises. Some of you might remember that some weeks ago, back in Paris, I was longing for some vintage wonders… well, there in the Village I bumped into some quaint little vintage boutiques. Almost fell for a furry zebra handbag.
The area that will remain my absolute coup de coeur – love at first sight – in NY is TriBeCa. The buildings have such amazing charm with their folding fire stairs and lovely architectural details. Fashion-wise this city seems to be about sexy, colorful and high killer heels. There are also lots of shorts and sequins around. A dear New Yorker friend Nubia advised me to pop into Arden B. – and she truly had captured my style. That place has some serious vogue.
Next time I shall be blogging from back home in Paris! Thank you for having followed my “grand American tour”. Three weeks have gone by so fast. Once home, I will be able to get back into my normal blogging routine, leaving comments on your sweet blogs, dear cupcakes!
Au revoir lovely New York, bonjour dear Paris!

As you can probably sense from the above shots, I’m having a blast roaming around the yummy Big Apple. My sweetheart and I have so far toured the lower Manhattan quite studiously. TriBeCa and SoHo – with their folding fire stairs and typical, quaint New York facades – remain our favorites.
The Grand Central Station is a fascinating place with so much hope and desire in the air… as folks hurry on to their promising destinations. Today we had a lovely brunch with a dear friend, followed by a soak in modern arts at the MoMA.
Fashion-wise I still have things to discover… maybe tomorrow’s pop in Chelsea will reveal this city’s true sartorial soul?!
Sending you hugs, lovely cupcakes!

Don’t you just love that Jay-Z’s song… Well, we got to the Big Apple, after a very rocky travel. Severe weather, an unscheduled stopover and a night spent at Washington DC airports! After sleeping off some of the fatigue, we took the Circle Line Cruise and breathed in the awesome city buzz. This is so very different after the Floridan paradise, but oh so lovely. Can’t wait to be inspired and soaked in some more!
“In New York,
Concrete jungle where dreams are made of,
Theres nothing you can’t do,
Now you’re in New York,
These streets will make you feel brand new,
The lights will inspire you,
Lets here it for New York, New York, New York”

Our sweet Floridan adventure lingers on… We are currently on the West Coast, in Fort Myers Beach. A tranquil holiday paradise known for its breath-taking sunsets. I used to live here. Coming back to familiar surroundings has bestirred many memories. Seeking one’s roots is always a wise of an idea. A journey of its own.
I am very much in a vacation bliss. Just taking every day at a time and sipping my joy glass of life ’till the last drop. I haven’t been commenting much on other blogs. Difficult to find the time, nor a good running Web connection. Please do forgive me, lovelies. I shall be back soon. I do appreciate immensely your comments. Sending you strawberry scented sunset hugs!

I’ve been vacationing since last Saturday under the sunny Miami skies. I wanted to post earlier, but our first hotel wouldn’t let me connect onto my blog! I missed you cupcakes. What a joy to find so many lovely comments!
Here are some shots from South Beach. The weather is very humid, wonderfully tropical. Thus, lots of cocktails… Frozen strawberry daiquiris, mango mojitos and coco martinis… but also my dear American infatuations – giant oatmeal and raisin cookies, peanut butter and root beer!
If ever you’d like to take a look, here is an interview on me in a funky, new web magazine My Voice Is Strong.
Lots of Miami kisses to you dear ones – you are sweetly on my mind!
