I'm thrilled to see the ballerinas. That you Carla for this (comfortable) stylist trend.<br /><br />I have sympathy when it comes to the cards. People always think I'm selling something. Please keep the pictures coming, even if some refuse.<br /><br />But on the flip side, when I'm approached in a store or in a mall by someone selling something, I don't even wait to see what it is. I automatically say no thanks and move along quickly. I guess that makes me just as bad, doesn't it.<br />SamSam Hoffer / My Carolina Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15358601435867848753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8632687405116920387.post-91350039900156428952010-05-21T04:47:59.692+02:002010-05-21T04:47:59.692+02:00Looks like you are having fun!

And I agree with Dorky Medievalist about being brave enough to ask for the permission. Even asking for the time of day is asking for disdain...especially in the 16th where we lived for many years when my family was in France not too far from the place Victor Hugo. St Germain is perhaps a little friendlier, though....not sure. Love the first lady, love her scarf her color combination her nice smaile. and the cutest dog.

I love taking portraits, but am always so shy about asking people to let me take them.<br /><br />I have a topic soon to to be near and dear to my heart, and I was wondering if you and Jeanne-Aelia might consider taking a stab at it... What do French women wear when they are expecting un petit cadeau? Maternity wear in the US seems very frumpy to me, and I assume if anyone has it mastered, the French must.<br />Merci par avance.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03713162036902849201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8632687405116920387.post-89758515846961636562010-05-20T22:12:48.138+02:002010-05-20T22:12:48.138+02:00PPS: It just occurred to me - you may have deleted...PPS: It just occurred to me - you may have deleted the email bc the surname sounds really odd.

That week has come round a bit too quickly for my liking !!<br />Well,you are not going to like me and will probably stop speaking to me and no longer be my friend BUT....I'm one of those women who is not interested in handbags !!!!!! Yep, really. Shock horror and, I can hear the whole of blogland taking a sharp intake of breath !!!! I'm a coat and jacket freak. I have enough to open my own shop but, bags leave me quite cold. I also hate having to swop everything over when I choose a different bag for the day. I obviously have a few handbags but, not many.<br />I love all of these ladies. They all look so beautiful and, as most French women, have that wonderful French 'je ne sais quoi ! I think that they are just born with it. <br />Thanks for taking your life in your hands to get these shots. What we do for the love of blogging.

In the 6th, lots of Hermes Birkins. The occasional LV Damier Speedy. Other than that, I didn't see a lot of obvious designer bags, which is why the woman with the Dior really stands out.Susan Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16005855250089328310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8632687405116920387.post-84133030160595524692010-05-20T14:29:42.920+02:002010-05-20T14:29:42.920+02:00I so enjoy these posts and I admire your bravery i...I so enjoy these posts and I admire your bravery in taking pictures of stylish strangers.
