Arm yourself with the stylish guide to style in the world's style capital! Small enough to fit in a tiny handbag but big enough to include descriptions and photographs of Paris's best fashion, shoe, and perfume shops, but also concept stores, bakeries, cheese and chocolate havens, and other hotspots, this little number will help you get the most out of your Parisian shopping experience. Warning: most shops accept credit cards! Special features: - a hand-illustrated cover - a hand-illustrated map for each area - information such as opening hours, history, and signature dishes - postcard - softcover with a sturdy PVC jacket Highlights: - Louis Vuitton's amazing flagship store - Colette, the pioneer of concept stores - La Maison du Baccarat, a palais for French crystal brand designed by Philippe Starck - the Marais boutique of Jamin Puech - Diptyque, famous scented candles and perfumes since 1961

Customer Rating:      Summary: Great book, great info, great pictures Comment: I love this book. Can't believe you get so much for the great price. The shops are grouped into arrondissements and a map is drawn with the shops noted. There's vital information such as hours of operation, website address, & perfect description. The photos are superb. I didn't need to take photos of the stores myself as the book did it perfectly for me... and on matte paper! I can't stress how great the photos are in this book. All the Taschen books are fabulous. This book is really packed with everything you need. As they say, a photo is worth a thousand words and this book is packed! This book's vibe is today's Paris; It really makes you feel like you're there. If you like verbiage, than this book is not for you.
