This week is one of my favorites of the year in Paris with the Chatou antiques fair. It happens twice a year and is an event I would highly recommend planning a trip around if you’re at all interested in antiques. I’ve found so many treasures over this years and this year was no exception. Emily and I spent the day exploring and Romain even came during lunch to meet us as well, although sadly he couldn’t stay long so we have a return trip in our future either this weekend or next. Some of my favorites from Weekend Links Week 11 include a list of the 24 best bars in Paris, an article that left me craving a salad, and the dreamiest list of the best villas in the South of France. Enjoy!
