Look Up


The Galeries Lafayette is a legendary luxury department store in Paris and one of the city's most popular stores. What I like about it is that all these new clothes, purses, shoes, etc. are all housed in this stunning, Art Nouveau building. The structure is one of the city's heritage sites because of its unique decor. Perhaps the focal point of the building, and the one part of it I always make a point to see when I am in Paris, is it's ornate, colored glass dome. Just walk to the cosmetics section and look up.
