While in Paris Chloe Johnston was gracious enough to set us up with a 2 hour shopping tour of the Marais. It was wonderful to have a guide that led us to some favorite spots of locals vs. going to those stores we have available in the States. It didn’t hurt that it was also sale season! In addition to favorites of mine like Maje, Sandro and COS, Chloe’s expertise led us to some gems of stores that I could have wandered in for ages. Many thanks to Chloe for the experience and if you’re heading to Paris anytime soon, I highly recommend you look into Chloe’s Paris tours.

Stores to not miss:

• Les Petites (great dresses, leather and wear-everyday blouses)
• Merci (clothing, accessories and wonderful home goods)
• Mellow Yellow (highly affordable shoes)
• Hello, I Love You Can You Tell Me Your Name (loads of cheeky t-shirts to browse)
• Bash (beautifully feminine pieces)
• Bimba & Lola (dresses with great prints and plenty of lovely accessories)
