en Provence

 Bonjour! Isn't this picture dreamy? 


 It's of Provence, France where L'Occitane (http://www.loccitane.com/a-true-story,29,1,2270,106327.htm) finds the lavender to make my favorite scent: "butterfly lavender". One day I want to climb the branches of a tree like the one above and read with butterflies. Until then, I will happily settle for surrounding myself with a few of my favorite French things:

These dainty little lovelies were handmade in France and sold by one of my favorite stores, Anthropologie.  I got them for $20 ~a steal compared to the original price of $128!

This book is next on my summer reading list.  I can't wait to devour it!

My favorite scent, "butterfly lavender" was given its name because the lavender it is made from attracts butterflies!  I wear it every day. :)

Isn't this poster by Blanca Gomez tres chic?  It says "Beauty is in the street" in French and I absolutely adore it! You can purchase it by clicking the link below.


This is one of my favorite musicians/poets. His name is Dan Smith and, even though I don't believe he is French, this video was filmed in Paris, so I thought I would include it.  Happy listening. :)
