La tribu des oiseaux



The boutique on Rue Saint Roch offers stylish hats,
but tonight, this fluff of a dress steals the spotlight.

I love it!! Not for me at this stage of the game, but it is beautiful! What a great looking shop and, of course, a terrific capture for the day, mon amie!! Hope your week is off to a great start!

Hugs

The yellow dress really pops in the window display. Nice shot.

"fluff of a dress" describes it perfectly and the bodice is gorgeous!

C'est incroyable! Je l'adore! I was so broken-hearted at a certain point in my life when I realized that I'd never have the lifestyle that would merit wearing a Cinderella type dress. Mais pourquoi pas? Do you think I could get it in electric blue? Et toi? En rouge, peut-être?

But . . . but, where is the flock of Birds?

Paris is so confusing to a Bear. Sigh!

Une photo magnifique d'une très belle vitrine... J'adore les chapeaux... J'en achète très souvent. J'aime les porter, cependant ils sont souvent un tout petit peu grands pour mon tour de tête (53). La taille débute au 55 !

Gros bisous.

This dress is very eye-catching!

I used to have a dress just like that. :)

That dress is so parisian, it is right eye-catcher in window.

This is Belgium said...

The dress won't fit but maybe a hat might?

They could be rehearsing the next Cirque de Soliel performance under that dress.

colorful, bright, one would be noticed for sure

Oh my ..l now that's a confection!

Tres chic, Genie! I like it! :)

Birdman said...

And you'd wear it to what?

Genie -- Paris and Beyond said...

Lynne, you pick out a blue gown and I will have a red one! You can come to Mardi Gras here in Mobile as we have balls and parties for a month... One is never too mature to wear a Cinderella gown.

Mr. Bird, see above to Lynne...

Martine, we will have to find a petit chapeau just your size...

The bird reference makes me wonder if this was part of a collection. I have been past this shop many times to admire the hats but had never seen a gown displayed...?

To all Americans and those who celebrate with us tomorrow... Happy Independence Day!

I will be watching the next stage of Le Tour, working in the yard, and enjoying a family gathering.

Bises,
Genie

Oh this was a great shot to enlarge and check out all the details much more closely Genie, I love that about your shots and always enlarge to make sure I see everything!!

Oh my goodness. The dress is so sparkling and breathtaking. I adore yellow and i love tulle. I envy the woman who purchases it! I want to go to a soiree in it and sip champagne. Flirt with Cary Grant or Burt Lancaster...
