Bonpoint does it again…
Okay, are you ready? Because this needs your full attention. Silence your phone, turn off Pandora and prepare yourself for the smallest and sweetest of fashionistas…
La Prochaine Fois
It was my turn for inspiration this week and I decided to feature this clever little clip from Pret-a-Surf. In the midst of winter, it’s a good reminder that summer will come again and when it does we need to all have swimsuit wardrobes like hers!
Charlotte Rampling
Love this old photo of Charlotte Rampling. She’s such a wonderful actress (and quite a beauty) still!
Silly Old Bear
I’m so happy Disney has brought out a new Winnie the Pooh film. I love that they have kept everyone’s voices the same and used the old style of animation, although it does look like they’ve nicely mixed in some more three dimensional style animation too… I can’t wait to go see it, I got washed away by nostalgia just from watching the trailer.
world’s greatest parents
So, my parents came in town for the Fourth of July and we had a ball. They are just the cutest, most fun parents ever and they wear me out! We saw Anything Goes (which was fabulous), dined on the deck, ooohed and aaaahed at fireworks, cruised down the Hudson, took a walking tour… I’m exhausted just talking about it! It just so happens that today is my dad’s birthday so I just want to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO WORLD’S GREATEST DAD!
Linus
I had so much fun in Paris riding around the city via Velib, that I’m thinking about getting one here in NYC. I’m a little scared to ride to work next to the crazy NYC taxi drivers, but I think I’m going to give it a shot. I have a crush on the beautiful Dutchi by Linus. Of course, with a wicker basket on front and a little brass bell!
Red, white and…
Happy 4th of July weekend everybody!

Merci
Merci is just about the coolest concept store ever and a MUST SEE for anybody heading to Paris. When we visited, we each picked up a gorgeous little notebook (pictured above) which we now fill with everyday thoughts and inspiration… it makes me smile… (even though I’ve forgotten the translation)
Monday escapes…

Some beautifully calming places and spaces from Maisons Coté Sud…
petite animals
Here at Petite Alma we adore tiny things, especially tiny animals – they’re just sooo cute. We’ve rounded up a few of our favourites to share with you this morning, and if can’t tear your eyes away from these chaps… then just wait until Friday!

Circus star
We LOVE Ms. Witherspoon and were thrilled to see her on the new Vogue cover today. What a doll (and what a shoot! Watch behind the scenes.)
Cone crazy
Spring has ALMOST Sprung (although it’s taking a little longer than we’d like) and in the meantime we’re surrounding ourselves with all things summery and pretty. These take-out flowers by S Design Unit and porcelein ice-cream cones by Virgina Sin are tiding us over… mmmm….
we heart joan
Over here at the Petite Alma we are crazy about Mad Men. Seems that we are all in agreement that Joan is an absolute rock star. We love her. Peggy’s pretty fantastic too and Don ain’t to shabby himself, but, Joan… she takes the cake.
