Happy Friday and Happy March! I always feel like we have turned the corner on winter when I flip my calendar over to March 1st. It has taken me all week to recover from my fun times last weekend, so I am ready for some relaxation!

Exciting news! I am planning a great giveaway for next week so stay tuned. Here’s a little hint to make sure you come back and check it out on Monday – it involves Paris and my favorite French sweets…
Here are two books being released soon that I am anxious to add to my bookshelf:
Being released on March 5th in the US by Louis Vuitton, World Tour showcases the collection of over 900 vintage hotel labels from the collection of Gaston-Louis Vuitton.
French fashion writers Isabelle Thomas and Frédérique Veysset break down the “je
ne sais quoi” in Paris Street Style to be released on March 12th.
ne sais quoi” in Paris Street Style to be released on March 12th.
Hopefully, I will find time this weekend to watch these movies:
Diana Vreeland, The Eye Has To Travel:
and,
Anna Karenina
Would you travel on the Titanic II?

Australian billionaire Clive Palmer revealed his blueprints this week for the new ship, a replica of the original, expected to make it’s maiden voyage in 2016.
The Oscars weren’t the only awards this week – Jetsetter presented their own awards for some of their best loved hotels and they are offering deals at all of them. Don’t wait – the deals end March 3rd!
I hope you have a beautiful first weekend in March…wherever you may be wandering!
I shall definitely be buying the Paris Street Style book as soon as it's out!

That book looks fantastic. That will be a great giveaway. I like my feet on land.
I will be waiting for the release of the World Tour Book. I hope you will enjoy watching the movie Anna Karenina. I haven't seen The Eye Has To Travel but would like to watch it one day.
A fun post Sandy, I will keep an eye on the books, looking forward to the LV book. I ready about the idea for the Titanic II today, I am not a cruise person but Mr. H would love to make the transatlantic crossing one day. Will check out Jetsetter..always interested in travel tips! I am off to fine The Eye Has to Travel…looks wonderful. Best wishes for a lovely weekend Sandy..

Saw both movies and loved them. Anna Karenina was one of my favorites in recent years and Diane Vreeland is just a fascinating woman, so do see both.
The books look great, I will have to add them to my ever growing list on Amazon. I will have to check out the Jetsetter awards results, always fun to see who is ranking on top!
Oh my goodness…Titanic II?? I am afraid not. We study all the history of the original Titanic in our historical fiction unit in my class. It is just such a sad event. I would LOVE to see the ship, but not sail on it. I would imagine there are plenty who would want to though.
Good morning sweet friend! I am going on my blog break, but thoughtI would come by for a little, BONJOUR!

Hello there! I need to order that Paris Chic book for sure and not sure about riding on the Titanic 2 but I would love a tour of it. I did the exhibit at the Discovery Times Square and it was gorgeous but a bit spooky too. Love anything Titanic! Need to see both of those movies too We have just too much in common it seems! (good thing) Have a great Sunday!!
I'm excited to get hold of both books as they are about my passions in life. Thanks for the heads up.
I love Anna Karenina.
And no I will not travel in Titanic II
actually i get seasick immediately.
