Ladurée

I cannot wait to go to Ladurée on the Champs-Élysées!! Three weeks!! I've been dying to buy myself a pretty box filled with some macaroons, but I want a really nice box so that I can use it as a jewelry box back home. I'm not sure which one I will get, but take a look at some really nice ones:





I just love the Ladurée style...absolutely amazing; it really captures the essence of not only Paris, but the French culture in general. It's very...well, Rococo-esque. Here is what I am talking about:

The Swing by Fragonard - 1766
(something you would definitely see in your Grandmothers living room)







And my greatest love...Marie Antoinette:
