Stolen Moments

Few days ago, I found myself with an hour free between a business meeting and a cocktail party.
One hour doing nothing, for how long it did not happen to me?
What was I going to do?
I've been already to Flottes twice that day, and although I really like it, I decided to discover a new place.
I work rue Saint Honoré, Paris 1st, which is quite the center of the center in Paris.
I followed the advices of a customer, and went to the salon de thé hidden on the 1st floor of the Hotel Vendome, which is Place Vendome, 1.
Delicious place...
I was the only customer for an hour, and dear, I really enjoyed this peace...
 I was spoiled by the charming maître d'hôtel, and I had the lovely place all for myself.
I found this cute book (I must admit, the lovely cover attracted me first...), about vintage, dresses and the way you look can change your life. Sounds like the story of mine!

The whole decoration of the Salon de Thé looks like a Dior showroom in the 60s, or like the movie Quadrille, which is one of my favorite. I'm not even sure it has been translated into English, or I'm not even sure it's possible to translate it into English, the dialogues being so French, and so old fashion in the loveliest way ever.
Few pictures of the movie, anyway, just for the pleasure. It is such a master piece, each image seems gorgeous...
