BONJOUR Cat Patterns!

THEY are wearing CAT!
Well OK 'wild' cat patterns...

Really any animal pattern will do...

But mostly catty patterns are preferred...

Tell me the name of this famous highend stocking brand?

It begins with a 'W'. They have cat patterns up the whazoo...

Combine the trend for faux furs with cat patterns plus a shorty jacket and you're set.

These are all very neutral, but then Paris does go in for grey/gris in a big way. You'll find animal prints at all price points and for the kids too.

Here's what I can't figure out...

With all the perfectly nice flat surfaces...

On these Paris pastries I find it deeply troubling...

That the tres au courant and very fashionable Parisien pastry chefs...

...Have not added a touch of cat patterns on top of these tartes.

All that's required is a stencil and a sprinkling of cocoa powdre et voila! You have a tarte to match your scarf or leggings etc.

Me, I'm dressed in layers, none of them catty.

But ever prepared for Paris' changing weather...

Meanwhile BEAR is busy browsing Paris bears and anything stripey...

BONJOUR PARIS CHATS!
