A Touch of Paris with Blue Illusion!

FullSizeRender 2Stepping into a Blue Illusion store truly feels like a Touch of Paris! The company was grounded in Australia over 15 years ago by Danny & Donna Guest who spend alot of the year up in France gathering inspiration for their collections. This has given inspiration for todays post where my Mum and her dear friend Anne pose for my camera wearing delicious Blue Illusion outfits, pretending to visit a different part of Paris for each outfit. Come and join us on our trip through Paris and be inspired – smile!

1) Visiting Le Sacre Coeur

It’s a lovely sunny day with plenty of walking involved so a good hat is a necessity:

Falling in love with a different hat and top, Anne decides to change her mind last minute – smile – woman’s prerogative right? Janelle Sun Hat, Top and Necklace found in store only.

2) Loving Sweet Treats our next stop is the original Laduree cafe at Madeleine IMG_6782
