Shop At Maison Bertaux

Shop at Maison Bertaux is Soho's best kept secret...but word's spreading fast! We're now one year old and our regulars can't get enough of our APC, Sonia by Sonia Rykiel Eley Kishimoto and Obey with jewelry by Vivienne Westwood Yura and Princess Tina. You'll love our taste, you'll taste the cakes upstairs and then you'll be HOOKED!

Keeping up with madame....

I've got plenty of excuses why i haven't blogged in an ETERNITY but i won't bore you with them.....let's keep this up up up people!!!!! I've been to Paris since i last talked atcha, to buy autumn APC as it goes - you'll gag!!! - and it's always lovely to be alone in Paris i think, yes, so apart from my fashion appointment I was free to window shop (and actually shop!), compare the patisseries to Maison Bertaux...which always comes out on top!, read my Gypsy Rose Lee autobiography and consume too much cafe creme...

Not bad, but get a load of Maison Bertaux on Valentines Day.....

See what I mean?
This was strange and worth a mention, around the corner from the hotel I was staying in in the Marais district there was what appeared to be a herb garden on the side of a building...

Quite beautiful.....and odd.
Fashion week was great at The World According To... because Eley Kishimoto took the shop for a week and made it their showroom, and with a few swathes of fabric and a bit of blacking out of the windows made the space into a cross between Janus and Star Wars...


Max and I went for our buying appointment with Duke and Joe, which has become a bit of a tradition, Joe works his way through the shoes and Duke pulls karate shapes, while we have a few glasses of wine and try stuff on, well I do, not Max obviously...

Me in my favourite EK coat, the collection's so wonderful, some amazing oversize plaid coats and my favourite dress was a severe Joan Crawford number....very me.
Lilliana let the boys fiddle about on her computer, they couldn't believe their luck, i'm like the police every time the boys go near mine....!

Duke took a shine to Fiona......and now the shop's back to Silas sale mode.

February sucks in many ways but it's always lovely to get a visit from ladyfriends, Princess Julia and Hannah from the Pix zine came down during fashion week for a bit of a gossip and to try to use the landline for a hot interview for issue 6 of their 'zine with YOKO ONO!!!!!!! (available in Shop at Maison B hot off the press!!!)

Well at least we've caught up a bit....I won't be a stranger for so long next time......madame xxx
