A little dash of Paris and a perfectly timed winter surprise from my charming neighbor @charlesmasson55 who was haunting the flower district at dawn!
Special advice from the flower whisperer: anemones love ice water. Who knew?!
Merci infiniment, Charles.
Au revoir, Valentino. I loved this dress.

Found my byline in the airport!
As it’s been fantastically restorative to be away, I am now happily returning home to tackle the pre-publication phase of Feel the Floor.

Christmas at La Colombe d’Or (and in front of the arresting Braque I eyed throughout dinner. ). In spite of the intense blue sky (2) it felt so much like Christmas in Saint-Paul-de-Vence.
