Autumn in Paris


At the place where I have spent most of my life, where I have spent all my summers turning into fall...know the feeling of bittersweetness---sad-that-summer-is-over-and-anxiousness-about-the-new-season-of-school-or-what-ever-to begin... I need to point out that in Paris, august has been hotttt, and since those hot days have ended I realized that the autumn is almost here, leaves are not as bright green as they used to and there is this special scent of autumn you can barely feel....but it is there. 
August - the air was hot and thick with humidity. Every time I descended into the metro, I got hit with a wall of moist, hot air, different odours from Chanel's newest output to natural human ones...like sweat as the easy one and I-haven't-had-a-shower-since-2-weeks-ago as the worst to be standing next to.  Despite all of your efforts to look Paris-chic, you would inevitably return home bushy-haired and sweaty with eye makeup on the verge of running down your face.. Time, where you do not know what to wear is here - in the Sun it is still like July hot, yet, the wind breezes are cold and sneaky. Especially, after the metro, whilst you are still hot, you wouldn't want to get sick just because of the cold breeze... Yet, since I am still here, I can not wait to do the fall too! I'm sure that the autumn in Paris will be as amazing as any other time. 
And... another thing.. Chrish, she left to Dubai - autumn it is. 
When we first discussed that, it was in April. She told me that she was going there to do her internship in the fall... and now she left, on Sunday. I will miss her. 





Photos were taken in Montmartre, yesterday. What a place! :)
From Paris with love!
