I've been noticing the decorations slowly going up in shop windows and on grand facades. But when I was Velib'ing home down rue Saint-Honoré tonight, I was thrilled to see the stars shining bright.
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee! C'est magique.

The Christmas lights are coming!
One of my favorite things last year was the Christmas season. The lights in this city are phenomenal, with every neighborhood and monument bright, dazzling, aglow...

Yay - I'll be in Paris in a month! Can't wait to see it :)
ReplyDeleteI hope they are still there in January when I arrive! Some years they are and some they are already down. At least the SOLDES will be on!
ReplyDeleteWow, beautiful!! We hope to visit around Christmas time....some year!
ReplyDeleteWe're celebrating the New Year in Paris this year:) I've been itching to see those lights and the New Year's Eve fireworks for years:) Can't wait!:) Thank you for the "avant-goût" and keep those pics coming!:)
ReplyDeleteso pretty!
ReplyDeleteAwwww, pretty! I love those Christmas lights. So festive!
ReplyDeleteOui, very pretty. Just as I was coming to accept autumn, winter weather descended on Paris this week... so at least we have the lights to look forward to.
ReplyDeleteLast year, it seemed they were alight for ages, so all New Year's and January visits should be a-ok... for not only lights, but, oui, Priscilla, les soldes! And don't forget le galette des rois - miam!
