Emily’s Parisian Fantasy: 10 Things Emily in Paris Got Wrong

When Sex and the City ended its series with Carrie Bradshaw in Paris, the city of love, I didn't really expect for Darren Star to try to take on the city again. Don't get me wrong, even though Sex and the City has a lot of issues throughout the series, it was a show I [...]

Nice to come home right when Paris is blooming 🌸
What if I told you she’s a changed woman? What if I told you she finally feels like she has come home?
Strolling these streets on my last weekend in Spain ♥️
Spring flowers 🌸
It’s a dream, this feeling ✨
My happy place 🤍
