Merci
I'm really not the biggest shopper, but I will have to say that so far as shops go Merci has got to be my favorite shop in Paris, well, pretty much one of my favorite shops around. It has got a bit of everything from a floral area, rotating art gallery, home furnishing, kitchenware, clothing, stationery, children's items, vintage french books and you can even select your own yarn, fabric, or customized perfume and pick up some Grom gelato (one of my favs) or stop by the cafe while you're at it. It is impeccably well done, the owners and creators, pure geniuses. Although not everything was not at my price point or budget, I was literally speechless walking through because it was incredible to see that a place in my inner dream world really exists. If I were to open the shop of my dreams... this would pretty much be it. If you're going to Paris, go to Merci, you will be happy you did.

It looks like a nice place to shop. Thanks for sharing this.
That’s one fabulous shop!
Ooh, yes please.
that's so awesome! i'm going to Paris in exactly 27 days for the very first time, and will be absorbing all of your tips and tricks. lovely.
this store looks amazing. i want to go to Paris just for a visit!
i'm so sad i missed it while i was there. but this is definitely going in my file for next time!
It's such a great shop, I went to the opening and bought a gorgeous vintage belt (which I since broke - too many macaroons...)
Also - Did you know it's meant to be a non-profit making shop? All the money goes to charity - The company that own it also have Bonpoint, I don't think they're short of a bob or two.
yowza! that is one stunning store, and with that red little car? cute can die. and thanks for featuring it, because i know one stop whenever im going to paris(soon i hopeeee!). take care for now my dear, hope you had a joyous day :)
