Weekend in Paris features member Travels with Julie writing on the best of Paris for girls. Travel in Europe can’t get much better for gal pals going shoe shopping, then sampling chocolate and wine.

The article reveals “sexy shoe lane” (Rue de Grenelle in the 6th Arrondissement) for class foot wraps by Sergio Rossi, Christian Louboutain, Prada, Michel Perry etc – just watch out for those hot chilli pepper prices! Once you know what’s current, 57 Avenue Montaigne in the 8th Arrondissement will offer similar goods at much more sensible prices!
After all those hours spent happily tracking down that elusive shoe, bakeries and pastry shops can be no substitute for chocolate and Rue du Faubourg St. Honore in the 8th Arrondissement has just the shop! The handmade light cream and chocolate ganache comes highly recommended. After which it’s off to the sommeliers for a tasting of 5 different wines and cheeses.
Sounds exhausting! Nevertheless, I’m looking forward to the girl’s next trip featuring perfume, macaroons and bistros If you’re on a European vacation shopping in the French capital and need some other type of entertainment to round off the day, read our 2010 guide to Paris cultural events.
