We’ve made it through another week 🙏🏻 This

We’ve made it through another week 🙏🏻 This one beat me up a little and I just feel really, really tired. Finding daily things to be grateful for to write in my Five Minute Journal and video calls with friends 100% got me through this week. This weekend I’m going to try a new recipe, hopefully finish the book I’m reading and maybe start practicing my French again! What are you doing this weekend at home? #witwhimsy #stayhome #casualstyle

This week I’m dedicated to celebrating the small stuff. Making the bed. Getting dressed. Moving my body. Reading. Making delicious meals. A slow moment in the morning to really taste my coffee. Opening the windows. Fresh air. Taking deep breaths 💛 What’s one small thing you’ll celebrate this week?

👋🏻 to all the new faces around here! Allow m

A moment of beauty and stillness for your Sunday ✨ (Should I make this a Sunday series?) #witwhimsyparis #paris #parisjetaime #prettycityparis

The other night I was laying in bed restless. Exha

The other night I was laying in bed restless. Exhausted yet unable to sleep (anyone else feel this way a lot lately? 🙋🏼‍♀️) Suddenly I had a lot of lines coursing through my mind. I grabbed my phone and opened the Notes app and wrote down everything that came to me in quick succession. I’ve edited it into sections to be able to share with you all here. I’m so glad I wrote this all down because I know in my heart that for days and months and years to come I will look back on these words as a reminder of how I felt when I wrote them on March 19th. They’ll serve as a reminder to live an even more fulfilled life. To be open to possibility and to become more comfortable living with the unknown. They’ll remind me of when the days were hard and were long and were relentless. They’ll serve as guidance when I need waking up to the beauty found in the mundane and the known and the certainty. I will look back on these words and know the feeling of being apart yet together with the rest of humanity. And I will cherish the lessons learned during this time. From my heart - to your home 💛 Meghan #witwhimsy #covid_19 #realtalk #together

So many of my #ParisPerfected clients were set to

So many of my #ParisPerfected clients were set to visit in March, April & May. As their trips were cancelled and postponed and my own plans to return to my beloved France were also put on pause, I got to thinking about virtual escapes and the use of our imagination, technology and creativity to transport ourselves to the places we love and hold dearly. Thus was born: The Francophile’s guide to staying indoors. Today on wit & whimsy I’ve rounded up all the ways you can transport yourself to France right now: my favorite movies set in France, my favorite books set in France, French dishes and cocktails to try your hand at, Instagram accounts to follow, ways to virtually visit iconic spots like @museeorsay and @chateauversailles and so much more. I know so many of you love France @francefr and @parisjetaime like I do so I hope today’s post is an uplifting escape that’ll fill your days in the weeks to come with a dose of that French culture and way of life we’ve come to adore 🇫🇷 Bisous xx 💋 #witwhimsyparis #parisjetaime #france

Today was hard. I cried for the first time since all of this started. It was like the floodgates opened and then I couldn’t stopped till I started a meditation session to try and bring myself back to a state of calm. It was a perfect storm of a few things and then I read a moving piece on @harvard_business_review that said “We’re feeling a number of different griefs. We feel the world has changed, and it has. We know this is temporary, but it doesn’t feel that way, and we realize things will be different...Things will change and this is the point at which they changed. The loss of normalcy; the fear of economic toll; the loss of connection. This is hitting us and we’re grieving. Collectively. We are not used to this kind of collective grief in the air.” It said so eloquently what I’d attribute my anxiety to of late. The loss of control, the uncertainty, the financial losses, the loss of normalcy, the loneliness, the dampening motivation, the empathy for those who are sick, those who have died and those working on the front lines...it’s all a lot and it’s all heavy. I’ll link the full article on my Stories but do grab tissues before you begin 😉 Tomorrow is a new day though and I’m going to focus on that for now ✔️
