Jennifer Scott shares twenty secrets she learned while staying with the Chic (pseudonym) Family in Paris in her blog and now in this book.
I loved reading them all. The beauty tips—-take care of your skin, perfect the no-makeup look, always look presentable—-are helpful, but it is the how-to-live-well tips that really bring the entire Paris experience into your daily life. Always use the best things you have is something we should all practice, as well as finding simple pleasures and living a passionate life.
