Parisian architecture and design has always made me weak at the knees. After living in Paris for a month, I fell head-over-heels in love. I couldn’t stop staring at everything and everyone around me. I even remember how much my eyes and neck hurt from staring and looking up so much. The detailing in Parisian architecture is unlike anything I’ve ever seen in my life. And to think that it’s been there for hundreds and hundreds of years is even more mind-boggling.
I recently came across this beyond #parisianchic apartment designed by Isabelle Stanislas and Leiko Oshima. Every room I see, I can’t help but think of the finale scene of my favorite movie, Cruel Intentions, when Katherine opens the church door to her demise. The dramatics of that scene carry over into the dramatics of the apartment’s aesthetic. I just want to turn on the #hefindschic playlist and drink Veuve while I saunter through the space with my lover by my side (P.S. I’m currently taking applications).

Original restored moldings and gold-gilded mirrors are complemented by modern furnishings from the likes of Rick Owens, Galerie Fortin and Pierre Chareau. The design is executed so meticulously that the observer is sucked into another world and forced to succumb to its beauty and elegance. Everywhere you turn, there is a spot to sit down and take it all in. Then again, when you live a #chic lifestyle, what else is there to do other than lounge in your #chicabode and drink Veuve? Where do I sign up?
