Paris ... the best city in the world

It's no secret that Paris is our favourite city in the whole wide world. We could spend a whole life time exploring this treasure trove of fashion, design, eating, architecture and all the best things about life and never get sick of it. The best thing about Paris is while there are always plenty of new things and places to try - the old gems always remain faithful. JellyBella cannot consume enough about Paris, our fridge and walls are covered in tidbits about this french jewel - so we thought it was time to start collating our favourite bits of Paris.


Astier de Villatte - ceramics heaven 
This gorgeous shop represents everything french; it oozes style, is chic and classic. The design company is famous for its amazing handmade delicate white porcelain ceramics, bespoke fragances, candles and cashmere scarves. My day isn't complete unless I've had a cup of tea in my gorgeous cup and saucer, I don't care what any one says it definitely tastes better.

This 1,500sqm concept store spread over 3 floors, sells a range of fashion and home decor and includes a flower shop and cafe. Think Stella McCartney and Yves St Laurent - all the profits raised go to charity. It's a parisian must!

Colette
This is the ultimate guide to what's hip hop and happening as far as fashion is concerned. To see the latest fashion trends and direction a visit to this design mecca will get the juices flowing and inspire your next look. The fashion is paired with the latest books and gadgets and anything that is 'now'. The best time to visit Colette is at the very beginning of the sales in june and january. Many bargains can be had. Check out these gorgeous Guiseppe Zanotti heels I snagged for a bargain.

If your after a one of the kind bag - this is the place to find it. The unique designs really make the right statement. There are a couple of stores in Paris, my favourites are in the marais and St Germain. Well worth checking out if your after that something extra special. I was lucky to find this beauty in my christmas stocking. Boy santa has good taste!
