Paris


I would sell my soul to live in that flat!

A kiss from Paris


Un baiser de Paris, with the Eiffel Tower and the Vendome Place, Paris, France.

Cover girls in Champs-Elysées


Cover girls in Champs-Elysées, Paris.

Nostalgic Notre-Dame


A nostalgic postcard of Notre-Dame (my absolute favorite place on earth!), Paris, France.

Nostalgic Montmartre


A very romantic old photo of Montmartre, one of my favorite places in Paris (alongside with the Quartier Latin). It looks like a replica and the date says 27/07/1910. Paris, France

A thought of Paris


A thought of Paris, Une Pensée de Paris, a great vintage-inspired card. I cannot find any information if it's a replica or not.

Le Chat Noir


A replica of the famous Chat Noir poster, poster art by Théophile-Alexandre Steinlen. Printed in Verneau, Paris, in 1896.
According to wikipedia, Le Chat Noir is the first modern cabaret opened by Rodolphe Salis in Montmartre in 1881. 

Boudoir poses


I love those two postcards a lot. This woman has a masculine face/expression that I found very sexy with the rest of her body.

Boudoir photos!


A very alluring boudoir replica.

Marilyn Monroe

A replica of a great Monroe photo, just beautiful.

Beautiful lady


The card is made to celebrate Sainte. Catherine Day, but unfortunately I have no idea who this lovely lady is and the postmark is illegible.

Humphrey Bogart


Some loves Gene Kelly, some love Sinatra, but Bogart is my absolute dream guy :)

Audrey Hepburn


Audrey Hepburn in Sabrina, postcard published in 1955. A favorite, of course!

Old Russian Postcard


An old postcard from Russia that Özlem sent to me. I love the expression on the women's faces, it also reminds me a little of Anna Karanina. The card was sent on 06 (?)/12/1917. It's pretty damaged unfortunately.

The fish seller


A replica again, the fish seller woman (very stylish if I may add), photo taken in 1976.

Old Wimereux


A replica od an old ad of the Opal Coast in Wimereux. It's a great beach now, I guess it was even better then. (And there is a casino-theater on top of everything!)

Fashion forward ladies of the 50's


A replica made out of a picture in Madrigal magazine, 29/01/1952. I picked it up at the Lace Museum (La Cité Internationale de la Dentelle). If you think lace museum is lame, just wait until you see Chanels and Diors and gowns Grace Kelly worn. This is the absolute number one stuff I want to go make a burglary!

The chair caners of Paris unite!


The little jobs of Paris, chair caners. Apparenlty this fellow changes some parts of chairs, an archaic form of feng shui interior designers it seems.
