Many thanks to Keith Eckstein who honored my blog

with a wonderful, kind review on A Taste of Garlic!

Oh thank you so much Genie!

Just my colour and... you know what, I think it's my size too!

I'll think of you every time I wear it!

All the best

Keith -- You are a mess! Merci encore!

Birdman said...

... and very expensive, no doubt.

How peachey!

Virginia said...

I ALWAYS wear pearls with my lingerie, do you Keith??

This is lovely. Wonderful if those are what we call "tap pants" at the bottom, or maybe there's nothing underneath! :)

Mr. Bird -- This was very close to Place Vendôme and was très cher!

Shell -- Peachy-keen and right in your beautiful watercolor palate.

Genie -- Paris and Beyond said...

Virginia -- Pearls? Absolument, bien sûr!

Amanda Summer said...

way to go genie, congrats on this great review!!

i hadn't bookmarked your site so i sort of lost you for a few days and missed some posts :-(
but now that i've found you again i'm signing up to follow to keep track...

(and if you follow me at travels with persephone you'll be nombre quarante!!)

Genie -- Paris and Beyond said...

Amanda -- I am signed up as nombre quarante! Glad that you re-found me!

Rob said...

Congrats on the review! Rather elegant attire, however, I don't think it's the look for me. ;)

Genie -- Paris and Beyond said...

Rob -- Thanks! Regarding the attire? Uh probably not the look you are going for, and not for Keith either I would imagine!

M said...

Bravo ma chere amie!!! Great and well-deserved review! Next trip to Paris I will have to come home with something like this (for D bien sur).

Loree said...

That's the stuff dreams are made of. So very wonderful and French.

Alexa said...

Congrats on the well-deserved recognition, Genie!
I think this little ensemble would be perfect for the beginning of the affair, and I love the extra bow—as though the lingerie and pearls weren't "gift-wrapping" enough!

Genie -- Paris and Beyond said...

M -- I think your D would like to see you in that -- ooh la la!

Loree -- One would expect more revealing lingerie in Paris. It is there but just not in the vitrines of this arrondissement!

Alexa -- Yes, that bow plus the garland of pearls just about "wraps it up!"

Dianne said...

Hi Genie~ how exquisite is that tres chic!! don't you love all the pretty lingerie shops in Paris??
~Dianne~

Genie -- Paris and Beyond said...

Dianne -- Unfortunately, I have expensive taste and there is no shortage à Paris!

PJ said...

Oh la la is right. For so long I thought it was Ooo la la but not so. I would love to wear something as lovely this.

Genie -- Paris and Beyond said...

Paula, I think that TJ or Vickie Sickie would have something along these lines. For what this one cost in Paris we could buy something for all of our friends -- hah!
