colette, the new mod
	shopping in paris is really a luxury...
			ahh colette! sitting ever so modestly on the rue saint honore, colette offers its patrons probably one of the most eclectic mixes of modern hodgepodge cum design in the world. shoppers can breeze through the many levels picking up the latest tom dixon lamp, a fabulous alexander mcqueen creation, kiehl's body creams, francois nars latest lipstick, grab a designer bottled water from the basement restaurant and be sure to be seen by the ever present paparazzi. an artful melange of uber-chic, japanese tourists, and parisian fashion mavens make the crowd sometimes far more interesting than the shopping experience. colette has quickly become an obligatory pitstop while in Paris.
