an american in paris

after finally seeing 'the september issue' (documentary about anna wintour and the '07 september issue of vogue) we've decided that today's french word of the day is 'mode' -- for fashion.

 and instead of just finishing the post with some pictures from vogue or covers from vogue, we thought it would be better to share some of our favorite fashion bloggers we're loving these days.

okay, okay, we love them every day.

keep in mind the key word here is *some* of our favorites....there aren't enough hours in the day to catalogue every one of our favorites. besides, what would we have left to share if we put them all out at once!

we hope you enjoy them as much as we do!

be sure to love them all!

as-tu connu le mot 'cowboy' n'existe pas dans la langue francaise?

did you know the word 'cowboy' doesn't exist in the french language? (!)

we suppose, as we dream of being americans in paris (pictoral interlude...)

that there really isn't a need for the word 'cowboy' or wrangler. and they probably don't wear cowboy boots. which makes us kind of sad.

but not sad enough to not want to live there for a year or two ten.

so le mot du jour is mountains - les montanges (du wyoming!)

we were going to do a whole set of pictures of the tetons, but we think this one of the mountains with the snake river speaks plenty.

today's word of the day - fleurs - flowers!

as in: oh, mon amour, j'aime les fleurs, merci beaucoup!

(oh, hunnie, i love the flowers, thank you so much!)

just in time for valentine's day!
