STRONG SEPTEMBER SUN

8th Arrondissement, Paris, France
September 2017

By Emily Smouha

From architecture to street style, the 8th arrondissement seems united under the harsh smack of the Parisian September sun. Back-to-workers swan purposefully with post holiday glows still fresh on their skin, leaving trails of discreet eyes in their wake. Autumn textures in motion once again; Leather, cashmere, velour and silk against brash beige stone or marble. Material, form and design changing as the day extends. Places to go, people to see.  Lunch at Le Relais de l'Entrecôte is a buzzing symphony. Act quick! Wait in line. Your table is being prepared. And later into the awe-inspiring Musée Jaquemart Andrée to humble you more intimately.  Soft and strong, supple and majestic, the sublime quotidien details weave into an indulgent memory of a day in Paris.
