voulez-vous voyager a paris?

I KNOW I DO!

I have never been to France. I've had the opportunity, but I was 12 and hated my life and I decided to be a brat and not go with my parents and a group of WSU college students. But, since I hated my life I probably would've found ways to be miserable even while traipsing around the City of Lights and eating croissants. So it's probably a good thing I didn't go and make others miserable too.

Anyway. Let me get to the point.

Jordan from Oh Happy Day is so freakin amazing that SHE'S OFFERING A PAID TRIP TO PARIS FOR TWO. And when I say "offering" I mean she's actually paying for it herself. Like, she loves her readers so much and wants to show that. So, yeah. All the details are on her blog, so get going and enter at Oh Happy Day.

But don't you dare win because I'll call upon my teenage angst and use it to think mean thoughts about you.

The Paris Apartment

How amazing would it be to rent an apartment in Paris? Especially one with a view like this.

I just found the blog The Paris Apartment, and while it's not totally my style, I do love the photos she shares from her visits to Paris.

Polka dots in Paris

ModCloth is fabulous. How great would this dress do while enjoying an outdoor summer party?

I can picture myself sitting under my apple tree, enjoying the shade and some ice cream while wearing this pretty little number.

It also fits my Parisian kick I'm on this week!

My pilates buddy's parisian pal

Polly decided to skip Paris and come to the Pink House instead because (including shipping) she was less than $6 on Etsy. I think that's a good deal for a one-way trip.

Besides being a screamin' deal, Polly is organic and she is machine washable. Gotta love handmade items that are still extremely practical.
