Hotel Moderne
i found a prophouse with every imaginable french cliche! funny cause i’d just passed by a tiny hotel for sale and thought wouldn’t THAT be fun, only 4 floors and each a different look…i when i found the Hotel Moderne sign, i figured it must BE a SIGN! i’ll shoot the little hotel this afternoon if i can find it again!
ps someone wrote and asked what they were wearing here. thought i’d show a couple shots, nothing radical but people are a little more dressed up here than even ny…and there are NO ads for ANY drugs at all on tv which i find amazing when we have so many… guess they don’t have restless legs here!

How is the Autumn weather there?? Is it “fall like” there at all?? So pretty here, take a look at my blog…i just love Early Fall, isn’t just lovely, and in NY, probably double the pleasure too!
Big Hugs,

Damn Parisians….always put us Americans to shame with our obsession with Nike air and those fad duck shoes or whatever they’re called! God love the chick on the bike with 3″+ heels!!!!! hahaha

Oh, the French are always so thin and classically dressed. They all look like models or fashion icons. I always feel like a horse when I’m there.
