Maison Clarté in Paris: The classy Repetto shoes.

Maison Clarté in Paris: The classy Repetto shoes.

You can go to Maison Clarté in Paris and, like Nan Goldin, buy some of the ornamental pieces in the gorgeous window displays and some of the furniture, or you can go there to buy Repetto shoes. Or both really—the stuffed birds, the chairs, the chandelier by Astier de Villatte and the beautiful antiques are all for sale. Maison Clarté is an exclusive seller of Repetto shoes, classic models as well as collectibles such as the zizi in jean, the MJ with rhinestones or the BB with zippers. The boutique is precious, stumbling upon it made me feel good for the rest of day.

Valerie Salacroux: Tasteful Designer Shoes in Paris.

Valerie Salacroux: Tasteful Designer Shoes in Paris.

*UPDATE: VALERIE SALACROUX’S SHOP HAS MOVED TO THE 3RD ARRONDISSEMENT.

Valérie Salacroux first worked in Milan with MiuMiu and Prada, then with Balenciaga, before creating under her own name. Inspired by her life on the Basque Coast, her collection of sandals reinterpretes the great French classics: flat leather saddler sandals, cork and wooden platform sandals and fashion wooden clogs. All is made in France, by small teams of craftsmen. The quality is in the detail: traditionnal saddler stitching, carefully chosen skins (genuine cobra, python, lizard, crocodile, goat and calfskin on real cork…) Valerie Salacroux’s style is very feminine, very refined and so terribly “frenchy”… a wonderfull blend of creativity and craftsmanship. For Valérie Salacroux, each model is designed with a special mission: to shape your feet and ankles beautifully.” Her products can be purchased in her workshop/boutique in the 3rd arrondissement or online.

Zef in Paris: Casual chic clothing for children.

Chic and fashionable Parisians dress their kids in Zef clothes. Designer Mariu De Andreis, the daughter of Italian fashion photographer Paolo Roversi, captures the perfect French bobo (bourgeois-bohème) look for her line of kids’ clothing Zef. The quality of fabrics, the elegant patterns, the ethnic touch, the casual yet sophisticated clothes definitely set this brand apart. It is classic and hip, timeless and modern.

Also, the accessories are very tasteful and I can easily imagine grown ups shopping for themselves at Zef!
