That's all Michelle had to tell me.
She was not able to join us, but our other lovely Parisian-American, Kristen, was.
We bid farewell to Michelle on the Metro and headed out to the Opera station. We passed an Apple store housed in a centuries-old building, Sephora and most importantly, found our way into the swanky department store, Galleries Lafayette.
Overwhelming is an understatement. The building itself which became the store's first location in 1893 (they added a few more buildings as they grew) is incredible. There are a few pictures that show the details which you can see on the flickr stream.
Kristen found us (we have cell phones that won't communicate with each other, who knows why) in the shoe department. She joined us specifically to find shoes for her American wedding celebration later this month. Sadly, we came up empty on her shoe needs.
I, on the other hand, found a pair of red plastic wedges. Not the most conscientious purchase seeing as I am still on a no-heels regimen due to the healing of the broken foot. But, you only live once, I guess.
