{Today nosotros welcome our kickoff "Dispatches from France" post yesteryear Deborah Beau of Kickcan & Conkers. Deborah is joining us equally a novel contributor too we're looking forrad to seeing French Republic through her eyes, too then delight assistance me welcome her!}
I'd similar to remain local for my kickoff post hither on , too then today I am taking you lot through the narrow, Medieval streets that brand upwards the historical centre of Montpellier to watch ane of my favourite French concept stores de la luce.
Founded too owned yesteryear Olivier Badou, a talented, self-taught jeweller, who loves lite too shadow, de la luce has evolved considerably over the yesteryear 7 years. It of late re-opened its doors later on a one-month makeover that reflects this natural transformation. Light, simplicity too the senses are cardinal to the shop's novel look.
De la luce offers a beautifully curated alternative of handmade objects for the home, inwards improver to books, clothes, designer toys, accessories too shoes. Olivier carries large names such equally Comme des Garçons too Marimekko with smaller, lesser-known artists, makers too designers, sourcing his products from all over the world. It's the form of store I could pass hours in, wanting to acquit on everything (those leather bags, those printed Indian cashmire too silk shawls, those old, distressed boxes...) too besides only soaking upwards the atmosphere too seeing how people react.
Everytime I watch de la luce I discovery something novel - Olivier has a gift for finding local talent, too I convey to say, a knack for surprises! I notice that both refreshing too inspiring at a fourth dimension when 'pins' seem to move faster than the speed of light...
Are you lot similar me I wonder? Do you lot always inquire yourself where pattern bloggers truly shop? De la luce is my piffling shining star inwards the pump of Montpellier. It's where I instruct for birthday too Christmas presents, for identify unit of measurement too especial friends.
I'm thrilled to live on able to part it with you lot here!
