They are pretty well entrenched into the fabric the seemingly ever-changing Montmartre/Barbès neighborhood. The owner and in-house label designer is always a pleasure to chat with. He likes to chop it up about everything from hip hop music, to design, and politics. If you're just passing through be sure to get some dining recommendations as well. They know the spots. But I digress... The boutique is dope. They offer a number of niche brands that create some quality clothing. Also the in-house Isakin brand is coming out with some very well put together pieces each season. I shop mostly for their pieces when I'm there. They give you that Parisien refinement without any of the pretentiousness. You can't help but to love it. This place is a neighborhood gem.

When was the last time you rang a bell besides an ominous black door to enter a boutique, then…read moretraveled through a long dark corridor with classical music playing in the background to be greeted by someone who offered you something to drink while you perused the shop's offering? Ummm, never. That's what I thought. And that's what makes this particular L'Eclaireur address one of the most unique and pleasant boutiques to visit in Paris, let alone the rest of the world. I rarely go to this shop because everything there is just too gorgeous and too expensive, but yesterday I was in the neighborhood and stopped by because I've been fantasizing recently over these adorable charms by an LA-based artist named Catherine Michaels that I knew l'Eclaireur carried. Of course the charm that I wanted was one of the pricier of the series, but I've been a very good girl lately and felt like I deserved it. The saleswomen helping were absolutely adorable despite their chic, sophisticated looks. They were so helpful, looking through catalogs to see what was in stock, getting out different strings for me to try my charms on with, marveling with me at how intricate and unique the designs were. It was such a pleasant pause from reality that the purchase happened almost in a blur. But every time I look down now at my fantastic charm necklace I'm thrown back to the experience and am so happy that I decided to ring that bell alongside that ominous door.

From gorgeous trench coats to casual chic clothing, it's terribly easy to want to buy everything in the store. I ended up purchasing this suit in a rich blue color, procured from Mr. Start in Shoreditch, London. They offer tailoring services as well, but I was leaving Paris too soon. They also carry a wide selection of Heeley colognes. Definitely a breath of fresh air from the shops off Rue du Roi de Sicile and Rue des Rosiers. More personal, sartorial, and fantastic. The best part? Folks in the neighborhood pop in and out to chat with the owner. For non-EU travelers, VAT refund shopping available.

It's their new affordable fashion brand that's accessible to any budget, but with clothes you won't find at places like H&M or Uniqlo. Lots of basics with modern cuts and enough style for the streets of Paris, or anywhere in the world you might wear their stuff. Their jeans are one of the things most people come here for, and while I didn't buy any, I can see why someone would. They look great and the price is right.

Le Bon Marché feels less like a conventional department store than a monument to the distinctly…read moreParisian art of choosing well. The iron-and-glass atrium is beautiful, the scale feels wonderfully manageable, and the selection of fashion, design, and home brands carries a point of view that could only come from Paris. Harrods occasionally comes to mind as a comparison, although the resemblance ends quickly: Le Bon Marché is quieter, smaller, and far more Left Bank in its sensibility. Upstairs and throughout the store, browsing is genuinely fun, and I still remember visiting when there was a Williamsburg, Brooklyn-themed activation that offered an unexpectedly charming French interpretation of the neighborhood and its culture. La Grande Épicerie, however, may be the masterpiece: an astonishing food hall where the presentation, abundance, and sheer discernment make grocery shopping feel almost museum-worthy. At a moment when e-commerce has hollowed out so many great department stores, Le Bon Marché feels increasingly special, proof that physical retail can still justify the trip simply through taste, atmosphere, and discovery. It is absolutely worth visiting while wandering Saint-Germain and the 7th. Très bien!
