    I wish I could say I impulse shop in International locals regularly. As most,I love to window shop…read more However,as time passes I find I need less and less so get most of the joy out of " window licking" as they call it in Paris. A few years ago I was happily strolling through Paris when a window display of extraordinary eye glasses caught my eye. For some reason I was compelled to go in and was amazed at how attractive their readers were. So, I went ahead and bought a pair having been lured by the great colors,esthetic design and apparent quality. It's been a fantastic relationship and I've reordered many times. Don't hesitate to look for this brand or just order online like me. I haven't found them in the U S.

    Bottom line: My Izipizi Paris reading glasses may have been a bit more expensive than regular drug…read morestore variety ones, but for the style, functionality, and design they are definitely worth it. I love them! The Deets: When I saw a fellow Yelper review Izipizi recently, I was like "hey, I've got some of those!" I indeed have not one but two pairs of Izipizi Paris readers, and I love them. I actually lucked upon a shop here on this side of the Atlantic, a home/kitchen accessories shop no less, and was drawn in by the unique fashionable design as well as the variety of styles as well. Usually reading glasses are very blah, not much to them. Izipizi reading glasses are stylish, functional, and have a design for every taste. They also have readers dedicated for computer/monitor work as well. I've loved mine, and they have held up for a few years. I've gotten positive remarks on them from others. I would recommend them if you get the chance to acquire some. The price point may be a good bit more than your regular drug store variety readers, but I find them worth their price tag. I have also done some online "window shopping" on their website as well at their www.izipizi.com/en address. I think if needing more readers in the future, I will be looking to replace my current ones with more Izipizi glasses.

    Galleries Lafayette is a department store on steroids and a shopper's paradise, offering mid-range…read moreand higher end products. Their merchandise is extremely diverse, comprising just about anything you want across three buildings. The main building, where you'll find women's fashions, accessories, cosmetics, eyeglasses (including an optometrist), sportswear, children's wear, is topped with a must-see art glass dome, complete with a glass cat walk (maybe on the 4th floor?) that enables up close viewing of the dome from the inside. There are restaurants, rest rooms, and sweets shops in this building, too. Menswear has a building all to itself, as does the food court. Be careful here. There are so many delicious and appetizing foods offered in the food court building that you'll be tempted to overstuff. It would be just too easy to spend an entire day shopping at Galleries Lafayette.

At the entrance all the well known brands for bags and clothing. The area for Moynart Labubu was doing brisk business. A Labubu bag I looked at was 2300 euros!!! Soooo many stuff here. We went to the 6th floor to get souvenirs, cookies, and gifts to bring home. Our suitcases will be packed full. Great service, friendly staff. No pictures, the store was too crowded and I didn't want to get in trouble for taking pictures with no permission.

    My first experience with AV was Year 2016...and I've never gotten so many compliments on a pair of…read moreeye glasses in my life! I absolutely adore them. The TSO technician told me about 15-20 years ago (can't remember how long ago really) that AV's son had come into this TSO store all disheveled from traveling about door to door all day pursuing businesses. The original doctor of this TSO location (since retired) loved the frames and said yes! Some background info told to me by my eye tech... The son told the doctor how the Valentin frames came about being made by his father; who I shall refer to as the creative genius of artsy frames!!! It was because his wife wasn't satisfied and didn't like any of the eyeglass frames being sold in Paris at the time...so Mr. Valentin (genius mastermind and engineer I think) got to work. But, because his frames were so unique and out of the box...made out of resin for instance...the son had a hard time getting eye doctors to agree to display and sell them. And so because this TSO doctor on a small Texas island near the Gulf of Mexico ocean...in Galveston said YES...I have a fabulous pair of specticals that I adore! Shop TSO! This location has the best selection of frames I've ever seen.

    Well-made stylish glasses but don't order at a trunk show. I ordered a pair in October of 2023 and…read morenever received them. My optician called the company and they kept giving him a date, three different times and they were never sent. I personally emailed the company twice and never got a response. Very bad customer service for any company, especially one selling higher end frames.

    I planned my Paris trip around getting a Celine bag (my very first designer purchase if you don't…read morecount that rude experience I had at Goyard) and this store did NOT disappoint! I received the best customer service, even though I wasn't 100% sure I was going to leave with anything despite the plan. I originally wanted a basic black trio bag and that's exactly what I came in for. Too bad there was no black trio bag available. I was so bummed. I didn't want to look around because I knew I couldn't afford anything else in my price range (high class, no income should be my motto). It says "Nathalie" rang me up but I'm not even sure if that's her name- anyway, I told the SA who was helping me my budget and she assured me that it was totally ok to have one! She said they didn't have the trio bag but they had just gotten a shipment in that morning and wanted to show me something else I might like. At first, she showed me a gray trotteur bag but she figured that I would like the black more. She even brought out different sizes of the bag so I could try it on! In the end, I got my first Celine bag and I'm so glad it was a Phoebe Philo piece. I recommend this boutique because I totally felt welcomed and despite telling the SA I might not even buy anything, she still wanted to help me find something I liked!

    I appreciated the service and knowledge of the sales associates. I'll definitely go back again.read more
