Although this café terrace is not in a traditional color scheme, I was tempted to have a seat with my bright orange coat and multi-colored scarf just to make a fashion statement.
Often in Paris it is necessary to stand out from the other twenty cafés that line the street.
I would say that De l'Echelle has found one way.

ReplyDeleteThey did a splendid job making a fashion statement and I do love the Coco Chanel quote from Veronique! Perfect! Enjoy, mon amie!

I agree Genie... I love it.. I wish you would have taken a seat and had someone snap a photo.. It would have been great!
ReplyDeleteTake care,

Hello Genie:
ReplyDeleteWe absolutely 'go' for this which surely provides a little added interest to the normal street scene, if such is required. We have been trying to persuade some friends to paint the furniture on their terrace pink, but so far without success!
This cafe is certainly outstanding in the strictest sense of the word? For some reason I don't associate pink with Paris, which I'm sure is one reason it's successful.
ReplyDeleteI love those charming pink tables! ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat about some coffee now?

A new trend ... Paris Rose? Love this new find.
ReplyDelete"just meet me at the one with pink tables" I would know when I arrived
ReplyDeleteIt's a standout for sure—and I'd have liked to see you and your orange coat here too!
ReplyDeleteMay not be traditional, but oh so wonderful.!
ReplyDeleteI would have loved to see you sitting there, a bright flame amongst the sea of pink Genie! Coco Channel would have been so impressed!
ReplyDeletep.s. thanks for the compliment this morning Genie, they are pretty adorable, but I am pretty ancient, just well preserved haha!
ReplyDeleteWell it's a little to "pank" as my momma use to say! :) That said, your orange coat would be smashing with the tables.

Ooh la la, a pink cafe made just for women. HA This cafe definitely "stands out"!
ReplyDeleteTheir "Pink" theme is wasted on me. If you hadn't told us, I would never have known. Color blind, you know.
ReplyDeleteTrès belle terrasse qui donne vraiment envie de s'asseoir pour profiter de l'ambiance du lieu.

The pink tables and trim on the chairs sure caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteWhat about the coffee? :-)
ReplyDeleteSoooooo Chic!
ReplyDeleteIt makes me think it's a breast cancer cafe. ;)
ReplyDeleteEeeeeeew. This one is not for me, Genie.
ReplyDeleteThese are my favaorite. Love the pink tables!
ReplyDeleteMakes me crave ice cream.
ReplyDeleteLove the comments today from "pank" chairs and Coco quotes to craving ice cream and color blindness. (I am sorry, Starman)
ReplyDeleteI do think that on my next trip to Paris, I will have to sit at this café in striking contrast to these tables and wait for my friends to joint me. See you at the terrace with the pink tables!
Bises,
Genie
I would be drawn to this cafe like a fly to honey! Love the pink!
ReplyDeleteJe trouve cela formidable, il faut voir la vie en rose et on dit que le rose donne bonne humeur, alors bravo !
