Covered moto

 Motorcycles with roofs like this one are now a common sight all over the city.

Two ladies

Decorative architectural touches like these make many of Paris' buildings a visual delight.

Headliner

A gigantic mural of Ali, whose funny, fake attention-grabbing headlines as he makes his rounds selling newspapers in Latin Quarter cafés has turned him into a local legend.

Arty dog

An impressive sculpture of a French bulldog guards an entrance to luxury hotel Plaza Athénée, a favorite venue for end-of-fashion-week parties.

Roses skirts

Skirts made completely out of roses decorate the window of a shoe shop on fashion hub rue Saint-Honoré.

One of my favorite stops, especially on rainy days, is Mariage Frères. With over 600 varieties of teas, everything on their elegant menu, even the bread used for the finger sandwiches, has tea as an ingredient.
