La Vie Parisienne : looking for love and the perfect lingerie by Janelle McCulloch


Find this book at your library



Genre - Non-fiction


If you have ever visited Paris, this book is a good reminder of the feel of the atmosphere of this city. Janelle has caught the essence of a Parisian in the respect that she has spent many hours studying the culture, especially the female of the species. Being well dressed and wearing high heeled shoes are a must for the women and the men just love females. There are great descriptions of walking in the back streets of Paris and the gazing that happens when sitting having coffee in one of their many wonderful cafes. You will learn about food, wine and local titbits of everyday life. As quoted in her book, ‘An education in style, glamour, gastronomy and grace in a place where even the asparagus spears are exquisite’. I loved the black and white photographs that really complement the style of book.
