George Jr: Amazing find on Amazon. The review as as good as the book and more. Exquisitely printed on quality paper, well designed and full of well researched information. A full blown guide to a dream holiday for the lifestyle and shopper minded. Paris is my fav city and this makes it more so.

Barbara T.: Lovely for anybody going to Paris or if somebody wants to have a French keepsake! I probably will not be returning to Paris, So it really did not serve a purpose for me. I do want to see the book is gorgeous!

kikikiki: Mein zweites Buch von Megan Hess und auch dieses ist wirklich sehr schön gemacht. Preislich unschlagbar und für mich da ich es zu Deko Zwecke nutze optimal. Die Bücher gibt es auch in Deutsch die liegen preislich etwas höher habe das aber zu spät gesehen hätte die sonst so bestellt. Nichts desto trotz sind die Bücher ob in Englisch oder Deutsch was schönes für Fashion Liebhaber.

Kate O.: This is a gorgeous, fabulous book, and the drawings by Ms. Hess are Stylistic Eye-Candy...such a fun and delightfully escapist way to spend an afternoon, on a loveseat or in a window seat, with plenty of beautiful sunshine to illuminate the fairy tale like pictures and to transport you to a place (or places) that you may never actually ever visit yourself, up close and personal, even if you plan on going to Paris or have been. These places pictured and elaborated on are for the most part for the rich, famous, and celebrated, and although the 'average joanna' would probably not be physically prevented from stepping foot in these places, would still likely hesitate to enter just from the sheer exclusivity of the establishments. That's not to say that those with supreme confidence or bravery would necessarily let themselves be made to feel out-of-place, but just let's say that it's a pleasure best enjoyed right where I found it...inside the pages of this fantastical little guilty pleasure!

Amazon Kunde: I LOVE Paris, and fashion and all the good stuff you can find and do there so obviously I couldn't resist buying this illustrated Guide (of course). Really enjoy the illustrations and the stories told alongside them. They are gorgeous, this is a perfect gift for a Paris or fashion lover. You can really feel the Parisian flair going on and it almost feels like you are really there.
Although I have to say this is not a guide everyone can actually follow since 99% of the shops / restaurants / hotels are high-end and very luxurious (which is what Paris is known for obviously), so if you are looking for a guide that shows you the best non-expensive restaurants etc then this isn't for you. All in all a very gorgeous book, I really enjoyed reading it and looking at all the masterpieces.

sandyb: This book is a delightful treasure. From the rose gold page edges to the old fashioned binding, and, of course, the contents, it's just so very evocative of Parisian sensibility. The illustrations are, naturellement, first-rate. It's something of an elitist tourism guide, that is, an illustrated guide to places that I, for one, could never dream of visiting, such as high fashion boutiques and five-star hotels and restaurants. But I don't care! It's a lovely fantasy, and I'll treasure it anyway. I feel inspired to spend time in Paris, even if it's on the cheap. Style is supposed to be about attitude, and this book has it. Nicely done.
