Christmas windows

Paris's department stores have their Christmas displays up now, so of course we had to go check them out.

First stop, Galeries Lafayette.

I got a kick out of the knitted turkey. Especially funny since I've never heard of French people cooking a whole turkey.

Everything glitter. We decided they must have spray glitter in order to get such coverage. Brown glitter, love it!

Eva was totally excited and was running from one window to the next.

I took this picture to show Jessie the stuffed dolls.

Mom and Marc admiring... I can't remember what.

I loved these jars of blue candy! (Even though I am opposed to eating blue foods as a matter of principle.)

Check out these pink wigs!

Apparently they are unisex pink wigs.

And speaking of pink, how adorable is that bright pink piece of furniture?! Love.

Then on to Printemps.

Dad is always happy to find something to photograph.

While the Galeries Lafayette displays were geared toward children, the Printemps windows were more sophisticated. Anyone need a blue feather coat?

Definitely the first time I've seen a bear that you could have on a satin ribbon leash.

Not to mention the first fish skeleton rendered in crystals I've seen...

A one-horse open sleigh with furs and glam accessories...

And a croquembouche made out of stuffed macarons!

A great Monday night activity for all ages, and a fun way to start off the Christmas season.
