Loving the Louvre

Visiting le Musée du Louvre was truly a spectacular day!  We fought the masses to get our picture taken in front of the Mona Lisa.  It could be comparable to a celebrity siting! The energy in the air was electric!  (And yes she is smaller in person)  The Louvre itself is one of the worlds largest museums; it is said that it could take a person three days to walk through every exhibit and they still wouldn't have seen it all.  So rather than camp out in the Louvre we saw what we needed to see and then spent some time on the outside relaxing by the fountains and enjoying people watching.  That was a hot day!  Or a regular day in Nashville.  My Street Style in Paris.  Linking up with IFB project #113.

We also waltzed through a bustling french farmers market, and purchased some tasty crepe's and sandwiches.  Though I must say the strawberries in Paris were one of the culinary highlights of the trip!  I've never had such succulent, naturally sweet berries.  Each one was a like a little bite of heaven.  Why oh why don't we have those here in the U.S.?  I can't even imagine how good it would be if I were to make these Strawberry Cupcakes, out of those strawberries!  Not to mention how many boys it would bring to my yard!  ;)

  1. I love your skirt and I'm super jealous you're in Paris right now! Lucky girl!! It's funny how small the Mona Lisa is in real life. You'd think it would be much bigger!
