Take me for a walk in Pere Lachaise...

Paris is the city where if you walk the streets, you may find that my heart is floating somewhere around the Eiffel Tower or the wonderful Louvre. It is therefore the most appropriate for this post due to the fact that I have a long-distance love affair with the somptuous seductive city of Paris. It left me longing for more and I will return to it, come hell or high water.


Red is my passion for Paris, black is the distance between us. The skirt I bought from a Gothic store around Les Halles, the boots as well. What you cannot see is that the boots are  all lace and leather on the upper part.


For Sophistique Noir: finally I started my own blog, you are an inspiration and I adore your cats.

For Madam Noire: yay! My first entry in the Red & Black Week.

    1. Thanks, I love it too. Personally I am faithful to black, but a little bright or Imperial red never killed anyone, right?... :))

    1. Thank you so much! So happy to hear you liked my country. Do tell me which other cities you visited. Have you seen Sibiu and Brasov? They are really beautiful. In exchange, I fell in love years ago with Vancouver and truly enjoyed Winnipeg. I followed your blog, I love it. :)

    2. Besides Bucharest we saw Sinaia, Bran, Brasov, Sibiu, Biertan, Sighisoara, Bucovina, Maramures, Sighet, Sapanta and Oradea. We were also supposed to go to Moldova but it was flooding at the time and a lot of roads were washed out, so we missed that. But yes, we so enjoyed ourselves on that trip and have highly recommended it to many people.

      You've been to Vancouver and Winnipeg! Vancouver is beautiful, isn't it? If you ever come back to Canada, you must see Victoria and also Banff. Those are very unique and beautiful places, and you would love them! :D

    3. Vancouver is breathtaking...we'll take you around Moldova when you come back. Please tell me if you particularly enjoyed any foods and drinks around here.

  6. ciudat, din tot Parisul, cimitirul asta a fost locul care mi-a placut cel mai mult. M-as plimba pe aleile sale toata ziua. Habar n-aveam ca-mi place sa ma plimb printre morminte... Un alt loc asemanator, care m-a impresionat oarecum: cimitirul din Sulina

    1. Cat ai stat in Paris? Din pacate am ajuns sa trec prin Pere Lachaise doar intr-o singura zi...

  7. 5 zile, vizitat "la picior" centrul extins + Pere Lachaise + Montmartre (singurul loc unde am revenit in ultima zi, si singurul unde as locui - mai ales langa via din dreptul crasmei "Au Lapin Agile", cea incarcata de istorie culturala). N-am apucat sa vad cimitirul Montparnasse, din pacate. Oricum, IN Pere Lachaise, a fost o aventura intreaga sa dau de mormintele lui Jim Morrison, Sarah Bernhardt sau Edith Piaf (greu de reperat); in schimb, surprinzator de impozant mormantul lui George Enescu, totusi simplu si de bun gust. De interes mai e si cimitirul Montmartre, desi galagios si poluat (fiind situat la intersectii de sosele, care trec pe deasupra) - aici am gasit, printre altele mormintele lui Georges Melies si al lui Francois Truffaut.
    Parisul e destul de frumos (mai ales Montmartre), desi usor plicticos (cam aceeasi arhitectura) si destul de periculos (mai ales in zone intens circulate, gen Gare du Nord).
