Typing the word “Paris” on a search engine you’ll definitely find hundreds of thousands of results. They wrote books, movies were made, were put together photo albums with hundreds of pages, preserved dozens of memories and stories.
Certainly, Paris is the most romantic city in the world, appreciated for its unique architecture and style. That’s for decades and continues to be the favorite holiday destination for hundreds of thousands of people each year.
Dozens of places in Paris expect to discover – from banks or Tuilleries hidden in Luxembourg Gardens, the steps of Montmartre or Marais on which you can stay to enjoy a baguette à la française, bistros and cafes where serving a glass of wine in afternoon is absolutely no violation of any code of conduct, to… stores.
Even if you seem to aim very high, it seems natural to start, with the beginning. His name is Champs Elysées. 2 km long, is probably the most famous boulevard from Paris, if not from the world, a must see on any map of “Shopaholic” coming in Paris. Present brands: Luis Vuiton, Sephora, Charles Jourdan, Guerlain, Yves Rocher and H & M. Even if everyone knows it as a very expensive place, you can never know what bargains you can get.
At only a few steps away is Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, where trends are set and where great designers feel at home. Among those present creations here is Dior, Chanel, Hermes, Valentino, Gianfranco Ferre, Versace, Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent. Prices – enough to know that summer and winter balances are a blessing that allows us to take possession of any bargain. Bear in mind that the sales period in Paris is in late January and late June.
If we’re in the high-class shopping, you should not miss Rue Montaigne, where shops Ungaro, Celine, Nina Ricci, Chloe, Prada, Armani, D & G and Ralph Lauren greets you with the latest creations. On the same note is included and Rue des Sèvres, located in Saint Germain des Pres. Do not get discouraged by big names. After all, a designer is more than happy when he sees creative street wear. So be wary of the bargain, as it is smart shopping.
To get with the feet on the ground, a perfect area for shopping – for every pocket and discounts all year round – is La Vallée du Village. Why is say so? Because the area is set as a shopping village and every store is in a “house”. Discounts up to 66% on famous brands will give us trouble when organizing luggage back.
