Parisian Priorities

Artist X wears black jeans from Target just about every day. He says he prefers them. I'm on to another reason...he admits that his favorite place to lunch is the Musee D'Orsay in Paris. Thrifty fashion choices must allow him the luxury of such tastes. Bonus: black can hide a multitude of sins, even buttery croissant ones!


I visited the Musee D'Orsay on my first trip to Paris when I was 13 and again on my next trip there right after college. The former train station is quite a stunning venue for some of France's most notable impressionist and post-impressionist pieces including the one pictured here, L'Absinthe by Edgar Degas. Merveilleux!
