Return of the Older French Girl

It's been a year since we visited ultra chic 'OFG' /older Fr Girl, so back by popular request - voila *Note stance and splash of lovely yellow-orange scarf.*Note ruffled jacket -tres flirtie.

Bright bleu punctuates a neutral pantsuit at Gerard Mulot.
A touch of turquoise on this OFG biker.
OFG bikers abound in Paris...
As do racing grand-meres pushing two little ones.
Regarding the OFG's hair - natural gris.
LONG shoulder-length hair is the norm for Fr OFG.
VERY LONG hair is OK.
Ride Paris buses to catch OFGs - the more civilized, scenic way to travel.
OFGs browse apartment ads like the rest of us.
 They walk their petit Parisien dogs.
My favorite OFG-ever-youthful 2nd-cousine, Kristine in Pigalle. Toujour charmante.
BONJOUR THE OFG!

Marilyn in Paris

Our Marilyn is hot hot hot in Paris right now.
The Parisien book shop vitrines are full of her...
True a new book, Fragments: Poems, Intimate Notes, Letters is just out. But who knew the French would be so smitten?
New York has not caught the bug so far...
Parisien hair salons are featuring...
Bottle blonde looks. Though I didn't see these dans la rue...
I did catch bottle-blonde Barbie advertising Chupa Chupas lollipops dans la rue...
When you walk into Galeries Lafayette you're bombarded with our Marilyn...
Stacks and stacks of the Aran sweaters she wore, are available in all colors...
Paris shop vitrine are full of Aran with added bits of fluff...
As bulky as the Aran sweater is, the French have added a belt :O
Aran for the kids too. *Note the classy cowl neck.
Are Parisiens going to break down and wear hats this winter?
It seems they are.
Hats are IN.
As are Aran woolly scarves...
Aran sweaters have always been the domain of l'homme for sure...
Certainement they hide a multitude of sins, especially if you've visited the Salon du Chocolat recently...ahem
Walzing around Montmartre with Grace, we discovered this tiny beauty spa called 'Marilyn'.
Who knew the French spell Marilyn differently?
i.e. Marylyn, so this is definitely an homage to our MM.
Move over BB!
The New York Times glommed onto Marilyn Monroe's fragment of a Thanksgiving stuffing recipe. After much testing, they deemed it quite excellent! Who knew our Marilyn was an interesting cook in the kitchen to boot?
Bien sur, Paris dogs don't give a woof about what anyone is reading or wearing. But I bet there's an Aran doggie coat out there waiting for an au courant Parisien chien...
BONJOUR MARILYN!!!
