French Muse Experience: Day Three

The French Muse Experience.

 

The view this morning from where we are staying in Lacoste.

 

 

 

 

 

Aix en Provence market was our destination.

Our goal was to shop for the much loved Provencal linen clothing. 

We had a late start, that can happen on holidays. We were

talking so much we missed the turn off, nobody seemed to mind. Ruth dropped us off at the top

of the market, and within five minutes our bags were too heavy to carry.

This lady lost her head while shopping madly.

Linen dresses at the market run from 20 to 75 Euros. Most are about 39 Euros.

The Mistral was blowing which made this May day feel like October. The sky was brilliant blue, the trees freshly crowned green, the vibrant spring colors were showing off.

While at the market with two million (not really) other people, Ruth and I had an idea to have our own market, to invite different stand owners to come and give us a private show. Pure decadency.

The Happy Muses in Aix.

  6. What a fabulous tour you are giving them, lucky ladies!

  7. They look like bons vivants!

  8. Fabulous women! Where are Corey and Ruth?

  9. Deborah

    All of ya’ll looked like you were having a wonderful time. Wish I could have been there.

  10. The hat guy’s a stitch, isn’t he?! We probably saw you on Cours Mirabeau! Kirk’s just gone out the door to buy the Cassis book he found last time we were here – we’ll bring it as a housewarming gift when the fisherman’s house is ready!

    I love, love, need the red hat. I hope the beautiful lady with the silvery grey hair loves her hat?

  12. I am talking the photos, and Ruth is there with the orange hat!

  13. She does! The hat comes in a variety of colors.

    The fashion display actually made me drool. Loved the red hat. Hope she bought it because it was perfect on her.

  15. The mannequins are effortlessly chic. What is it about the french market look? It’s so simple and yet we cannot seem to duplicate it in North America.

  16. Rebecca from the pacific northwest

    This leaves me wanting to see the outlay, all spread out, of what each of your ladies bought.
    I quite like that back detail on the yellow top that the soon-to-be-owner-of-red-hat woman is looking at.
