Hotel Carnavalet

On our last morning in Paris we ducked back into the Musee Carnavalet, for a quick last look at one of our favourite places.  To our delight there was another whole wing open to explore, all be it briefly.

This fabulous house, home to the Marquise de Sevinge, displays Salon setting in a myriad of eras.

The Marquise is famed as being the hostess of the most chic salon gatherings during the 1600s.

See our first Carnavalet story here.

Kwamee.

Francis threw a bit of a soiree at his Kwamee store on Friday evening, so we popped along.

With his usual style and flair, we were treated to great refreshments, cool beats and his 

fantastic fashion.

Mr.Brown And Francis

Search out the Kwamee store at the rear of 568 Chapel Street in South Yarra.
Pick up some new threads with great detail twists.
Too cool for school.
