Paris Windows

Many, many things caught my eye in the shop windows of Paris. Here are a random sample of some favourites. 

Hello Kitty x Kiss!
If these hadn't been 50 euros each I would have bought the set
Album 32 rue Saint-Jacques 75005
a very cool shop,
but this fine Paris summer day it smelt much too much of smelly man
Kurt Cobain chair at Urban Gallery
163 Boulevarde du Montparnasse 75006

Y fronts as a lamp? at Urban Gallery

iphone cases
My e-case
61 rue Bonaparte 75006

I've always wanted an opium candle.
Rue de Sevres 75007

It seems Australian classics have a longer reach
 than you might suspect...

KISS meets Hello Kitty is *brilliant*. Oh how tempted I would have been.

Oh dear, I thought the iPhone cases were biscuits... and that's with the new lens in my glasses! Happy New Year. My Snapshot is at http://goo.gl/t488Ge

What a fabulous window shopping trip with you this morning. I would always be hungry if my iPhone looked like an eclair. Here's Mine

Paris windows are always so interesting. You could spend a day looking into them.

Thanks for the window shopping. I'll never get to Paris, so your photos make it almost like I was there.

Window shopping in Paris is always delightful!

The chair and the underpants are downright creepy. What a funny sense of humor the designers must have.

I love how your trip to Paris can be re-lived every time you create one of these fascinating posts Louise.

It's such a major effort to get one's family to Europe from Australia. It's lovely to see how much you did and how you all took every opportunity to make happy memories.
I love that you captured the every day details, not just the touristy stuff :-)

Haha! Love the variety of things you chose to shoot ... all such different and bizarre things ... what's up with the undies ? Gotta love the Hello Kitty Kiss figurines! What a trip you've had!

These are great! I adore the cell phone cases, except that I think if I carried one of those I would always be hungry!

I can see Paris has gone postmodern. Thanks for sharing these most interesting photos! ;)
