Les Fleurs

There are two reasons to walk down passage Josset in the 12^th: it’s quaint and off the beaten track; and it’s home to Les Fleurs, a girly boutique extraordinaire that drips with funky jewellery, bags, rococo mirrors and all sorts of gizmos and gadgets for little and grown up girls alike.  Owner Lucie Deniset has handpicked little-known, yet confirmed creators (like Nat&Nin, Adeline Affre and Titlee) to create a range of desirables quite unlike elsewhere in Paris – a move that has made Les Fleurs so popular, you can hardly move for the crowds, especially on Saturdays. The run up to Christmas is always a good time to shop here, when decorations and stocking-fillers abound. The boutique also stays open on Sundays in December, so you can avoid Saturday’s crush.
