Paris in Color

Because it’s a big city with grey buildings, grey sidewalks, grey streets (and grey skies this week), some people think that Paris has no color. Yet when I walk around, I see color everywhere. Since no one called me crazy to write a post about doors, I thought I would take a chance and post the vivid colors I found this week even though the weather didn’t cooperate. Here is Paris in color…

Somehow I love this collection of thread that was in the window of a tailoring shop

Even though the weather wasn't cooperating, these flowers reminded me that it was supposed to be spring

Macarons are a specialty of Paris. The colors and the boxes really appealed to me. In fact, there was a family ogling the window for ages, so I couldn't get a direct photo!

Have you even seen such fabulous shoeboxes?

I'm sure the city of Paris doesn't like it, but I like the graffiti here; it's so much more artistic than at home
