The Paris Traveler

Sabbia Rosa

by Lynn on July 18th, 2007

French LaceI think I should be writing this post in February just in time for Valentine’s Day instead of in the middle of summer, but then again, what better time to parade around in beautiful lingerie bought at Sabbia Rosa than when the weather is warm.

What makes this lingerie shop different from so many others? For one, the owner known to everyone as Sabbia Rosa, is quite the quintessential Parisian woman who helps you understand that up until now you have been living in a world of frumpy under garments irregardless of what you’re actually wearing.  Unless, of course, it comes from her shop! (For shame! How could I think of wearing anything else?!) Sabbia Rosa Slip

Nevertheless, when you see the beautiful silk and satin nightgowns or robes, or pass your fingers delicately over the handmade French lace trimmed camisoles, or bras and briefs in an array of pastels and vivid colors made exclusively for her boutique, you know she’s right!

Prices are not for the faint of heart; 200€ for bra or panties, (no not both!), or 400€ for a lace slip gives you an idea! No surprise that this luxury lingerie store is frequented by famous models and movie stars; but what better gift for a guy to show his girl that he cares than lingerie from Sabbia Rosa!

    Okay, it looks like another vacation is necessary. I have this shop and all those other attractions you mentioned on Best of Paris. We are off to England in the fall, think I had better work in few days or so in France while I’m there. It’s getting harder and harder to resist.

    If you take the Chunnel, you’ll leave the center of London and be in the center of Paris in a little over two hours! It use to take that long just going to the airport in London and coming from the airport in Paris! Besides, autumn is the best time to visit Paris! (I think we’ll be seeing photos of your trip to Paris soon!)
