Let them eat cake!
Ok so I have a huge obsession with Ladurée macaroons. Ever since clients of mine brought me a box home from their honeymoon in Paris I have had a major weakness for these light and airy, delicious masterpieces. I was on their website the other day and became insanely inspired by their storefronts. The decor, details and the brilliance is so amazing I want to transform this into a wedding immediately. It’s very Marie Antoinette with a touch of whimsy.
Talk about Parisian chic! And these last few photos are from the brand new Ladurée Bar opening soon. How fabulous is that!? Macaroon cocktail please! Talk about a signature cocktail…so in love!
More macaroon chicness! Do you not want to fly to Paris immediately for some macaroon cocktails!? Sigh…
And these last few pictures are the perfect addition to this look. First of all those swarovski crystal Jimmy Choo’s are just too perfect! photo via the fabulous Bear Flag Farm. I adore this shot of with those oversize cupcakes and pink tulle!! via Emily McGregor. Can you just see the flower girls carrying macaroon bouquets?! Too much?…I think not! via Casa Sugar. And lastly a mirror of pink tulle also Emily McGregor.

J’adore Laduree! I lived in Paris and my most favorite thing in the whole wide world was a pot of Lady Grey Tea, and a vanilla macaroon. I always went to the store near la Madeleine, which is opulent and outrageously gorgeous. And, I was inspired by their decor and packaging as well, I want a jewel box of a bathroom in the mint, cream, and gold of their pastry boxes. J’adore, J’adore, J’adore! Glad to know I’m not the only one crazy for these cookies
The last time I was in Paris, I ate so many macaroons at Laduree that I literally made myself sick. I would do it again in a heart beat. Craving a lavender macaroon in the worst way right now…
I think I’ve died and gone to heaven…gorgeous!!!!
I have never had the pleasure but now seriously wanting one in any flavor. Although, lavender sounds divine! And the decor is truly inspiring as well. Thanks for sharing!
my heart just fluttered.
OMG I MUST create an illustration inspired by the photograph of the lady in the pettycoat. Thanks for the inspiration! And yes, I would totally join you for macaroon cocktails!
YUM!
