Sisters in Paris

Heather and I were lucky enough to get to spend a week together on an epic girls trip to Paris, France this past October! We've both been separately, but this was our first time visiting the city together. We stayed in an AirBnb in Montmartre and loved our little neighborhood so much. I'm happy to share the actual AirBnb booking if anyone is interested... we loved the space and the location but the bed was extremely uncomfortable and we had some of the worst nights sleep we've ever had. We were consistently up all hours of the night tossing and turning. So maybe you don't want to stay there, haha :) Bad sleep aside, the location was great and it was easy to take the metro anywhere in the city and even easier to just walk anywhere as well. I listed out everywhere we ate and all things we did over the week. Anything with an asterisk next to it means we LOVED it!

Where we ate:
Pink Mamma * (delicious! we shared a pizza and drank some delicious red wine. make sure that you walk to the top floor and check out this beautiful space)
Odette * (we stopped here for a sweet treat, the location couldn't be any cuter if it tried)
Laudree (mandatory stop for sweet treats in a collectible box)
Bouillon Chartier (we had a quintessential Parisian meal here one night)
Frenchie Bar a Vins (I'm a HUGE fan of FTG, so I loved visiting their wine bar)
Ob-La-Di * (we had breakfast here one morning and loved every sip and bite)
Kozy (if you're looking for their brunch it only happens on the weekend, oops!)
Cafe Kitsune (fueled up on a delicious iced chai one afternoon)
La Bossue (we had our final petit déjeuner of the trip here and it was heavenly)
Corto (a small inconspicuous place near our AirBnb that happens to have out-of-this-world-delicious-steak-tartare)
Creperie Framboise (because crepes)
Wine and snacks in the park

What we did:
A LOT of walking!
A LOT of metro riding! (we purchased the Paris Visite 5-day pass and it basically pays for itself in a few days. taking public transportation is my favorite way of getting around a city)
Shopping at Merci * (I fell in looooooove with this concept store)
Galeries Lafayette (go for the high-end shopping but don't miss the incredible rooftop views)
Stamp Market * (check the hours before you go... I found handfuls of beautiful old stamps here)
Paris Flea Market  (the flea market was not a highlight for us... most stalls were closed so there wasn't a lot for us to see)
Explored the artists square in Montmartre (we purchased a small watercolor for our mom here)
L'Atelier Des Lumières * (I cannot recommend this place enough, it was the most beautiful artful experience I've ever had)

And in no particular order, here are our photo favorites from a week in our favorite city. I hope you enjoy :)
