@NicolasRinaudo I just shared it with the BFF with whom I’m visiting Paris! We have plan to push each other to spend money without guilt
@RosaCtrl do you want a few more addresses? There's a set of shops I really love in the Marais
@NicolasRinaudo yes! Thanks!
@RosaCtrl let me put together a list then. When's your trip to Versailles?
@NicolasRinaudo oh, just drop some names. We will have just a packed few and very packed days the week of September 15
@RosaCtrl oh you know what, in that case, just take a walk in that area. There are very few shops you should avoid, and they're very easy to spot.
@NicolasRinaudo by the area you mean around what’s between the Pompidou and Notre Dama? Neither of us has been in Paris before! 😱
@RosaCtrl around Bonaparte 13 will do fine, it's lots of cute and hip streets. It's the gay neighborhood, and you know how that's always the nicest and most trendy place of any city.
@NicolasRinaudo this is fucking perfect! I’m going with my future gay husband! 🌈
@RosaCtrl so I gathered, yes :)

Do you mean https://13bonaparte.com/ ? (So "13 Bonaparte" instead of "Bonaparte 13")
The photos in Google Maps make it look like the kind of place where I can't just go and take a peek without social interaction... Feels like I'll end up in an "interview room" 
To be honest, I don't feel very comfortable with that, especially since when I don't plan to actually buy anything 
Might just take a peek at the online stuff.
@JD557 oh yeah the designer is likely to come out and chat, because he loves to see people enjoy his work. I like interacting with proud creators but I can absolutely understand why you wouldn't.
The online stuff is quite nice, but the true gems aren't sold online - they get sold off before he has time to take pictures.
@JD557 but it's worth the pain, if you can take it - I have a few tops from them and every single one of them has led to people randomly complimenting them in the street. PARISIANS NEVER DO THAT!
Also, err, quite pricey.
I don't usually talk about clothes much because I don't really know much about it, but if you're a man and happen to be passing through Paris, make a quick detour by Bonaparte 13. Their stuff is amazing.
