Hello everyone! Visiting from {this is glamorous}, and delighted to join the wonderful panel of guests here at Bonbon Oiseau while Deb is away in Paris . . .
Was happily in the City of Light last summer . . . and when dreams are of Paris, the first thing that often comes to mind is La Tour Eiffel, but for me, many beautiful memories are associated with the magical Château de Versailles, just outside of the city . . .
The welcoming gates of the Château, beautifully shot by Karl Lagerfeld.
The wonderful and expansive grounds, {above & below}, perfect for a lovely picnic and a glass of champagne . . .
A peek inside the Château . . .
And when all is said and done and you've returned home again, you'll always have your perfect Parisian memories . . .{Welcome home, Deb!}
