Scarves et Le Tour Eiffel



Yes, it is very French to wear scarves--they are everywhere.  I enjoy wearing scarves.  I like them as accents for a poor student like myself.  You can use a scarf to cover your head when it rains, as a blanket on the plane, and to stay warm in general. We do wear scarfs a lot in the states and I feel it has become a valued accent for street style in general.  My history of couture professor claims that it has been the custom to never leave the house in Paris without your scarf or an umbrella because the weather changes throughout the day from rain, to sunshine, or whatever in between.

Ici est le Tour Eiffel!!! This pic is from dancing saturday
night on a La Péniche.  The boat went once around the Seine and docked for the disco portion later in the evening.  The event was sponsored by Erasmus, a study abroad student group.  Super fun, lots of languages, and terrible dance music(--Britney Spears circa 2000, was not my idea of good dance music but everyone enjoyed it).  Also my fave, fave,fave Musée d'Orsay.
