thanks for reading ladies and for your comments! It is so interesting to hear the thoughts of those of you who have also been. I hope to hear reports from
every one going later this year!

The chic and easy style was definitely inspiring but I did start to miss the color and variety here in the USA!

I have to revisit the Paris SATC episodes now!

This is so off topic, but did you ever buy the Cinched Medallions top from Anthro this summer? I am searching for it, but wanted to know if you bought it and what you thought of it.

My sister is in Venice studying abroad right now, and she looks just like you described in her pictures.

Thanks for the post and the inspiration to try something classy and less *trendy*

While I love B&W+gray neutrals brown & navy as much as the next gal, I love bright colors. The thought of a world without color - well it's very "Pleasantville" and too somber/depressing. If I were in Paris I'd just embrace not fitting in, and rock my colorful American style. I'm a proud American, after all. ;) Also, CA wines are better, lol.

I first went to Paris in the early 1980's, and I can remember how black, grey, and beige tones dominated every woman's look. Embellishments were rare. I went back about 15 years later, and those same neutral shades and fitted, minimal styles were still in charge! So, Jenna's love of neon pop and Gayle's obsession with ruffles and glitzy baubles would not be welcome on the streets of Paris. I do love the fact that most French women always look like they didn't try to hard to pull it together. I'll never look like that -- I'm way too obsessed with color, texture, accessories, etc. I'm a girly-girl, and I love to "play" with my wardrobe.
