Hello there…

I was ten or eleven years old when I first visited Paris with my mother. Since then, it has been one of my favorite places in the world. Besides being the most romantic city in the world, Paris has so much history and so much to see from Musee du Louvre, to River Seine, the Eiffel Tower and Arc de Triomphe. It is no wonder it was voted the #1 best place to live by International Living. If you are passionate about beauty, art and culture like I am, you will love Paris and you will never get bored because the views are just spectacular!

I delightfully dropped with desire when I stumbled upon this Giuseppe Zanotti shoes featured in the February issue of Tatler Russia.  Zanotti’s shoes are sleek, sexy and ultra-modern and use the finest material.  I will take the Gianfranco Ferre dress as well (above my knees tough); I think it would look amazing on my brown skin tone. That would be the perfect dress to celebrate my upcoming birthday, say in Saint Tropez…ah back to reality.

I will update to add if I find a close view of the shoes.
