Gabi in Paris: A Recap

This past week, Gabi traveled back to her favorite city in the world: Paris, France. She had first visited the city in August of 2018, making one of her biggest lifelong dreams come true. Living vicariously through Audrey Hepburn, she visited places such as the Palace of Versailles, the Louvre, and of course, the Eiffel Tower, which was just outside the hotel she was staying at. Let's take a glimpse into Gabi's second trip to Paris.

Day One: Arriving in Paris

Gabi set off to Paris on Monday, January 20th, with her boyfriend Collin and mother, Nelly. Her airport outfit was, as usual, very fancy and full of her girly style. Arriving around eight hours later and checking into the hotel, Hotel Bazac, Gabi was finally back in the place she called home. Hotel Bazac is a five star hotel located in the heart of Paris. A few of their rooms come with a terrace that provides a breathtaking view of the Eiffel Tower, one of them being the Royal Suite, the room Gabi appeared to be staying in. After giving us Fancy Babies a tour of her room via her Instagram Story, Gabi headed out to explore the city. She visited the iconic landmarks, the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower. We can assume she visited the Chanel store as well, of course. After watching the Eiffel Tower glisten and sparkle, Gabi's first day in Paris had come to an end.

Day Two: C'est La Paris

Waking up to a view of the Eiffel Tower, Gabi's second day in Paris was certainly a dream. Judging by her Instagram Story, her first stop was the perfume museum, Musée du Parfum. This private museum offers a unique experience, allowing guests to explore their perfume exhibits and learn about the history of perfume manufacturing. After touring the museum, guests are able to spray themselves with perfume samplers from the Fragonard perfume boutique just before exiting. Gabi also visited the Louvre, a popular landmark that attracts both tourists and residents of Paris. Originally a royal palace, the Louvre is the world's largest and most popular art museum. The Mona Lisa and the Venus de Milo are two of the most famous works of art featured there. For a quick bite, Gabi and her family stopped by Nina's Vendôme for teatime with Marie-Antoinette. The lavish tearoom and boutique sells Marie-Antoinette's favorite tea and cake, the perfect place for Gabi. Her last stop seemed to be at the Chanel store (as expected) where she, of course, made a purchase. Gabi and her family ended the night with a glass of wine on their hotel suite's terrace, with a stunning view of no other than the Eiffel Tower at night.

Day Three: Marie-Antoinette's House

Gabi's third day in Paris seemed to have one focus: The Palace of Versailles. If you're not familiar with it already, the Palace of Versailles was originally the royal residence of many Kings in up until the late 1700s. It has now transformed into a museum of the history of France. Marie-Antoinette had residence there, offered by King Louis XVI, hence why Gabi refers to the Palace as Marie-Antoinette's house (because a part of it literally was). If I could picture Gabi living anywhere in the world, it would definitely be there. With the Parisian style and large chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, it is a perfect fit for our fancy queen. She appeared to have an elegant breakfast just before heading off to the Palace. After a day of adventure in her castle, Gabi ended the night wearing a nightgown with her teacup in hand.

Day Four: A Bittersweet Goodbye

As her final day in Paris approached, Gabi seemed to roam around the city one last time. She appeared to start off her day with a cup of tea or coffee on the terrace that overlooks the Eiffel Tower. She then made one last visit to the Eiffel Tower in a stunning Ted Baker Coat and Love Shack Fancy dress, paired with some Jimmy Choo heels. She made a few stops to some luxury stores, including Cartier and Swarovski. I'm sure Gabi's last day was definitely bittersweet, considering she had to leave her favorite city, while on the other hand knowing she would get to meet hundreds of fancy babies at her London meet up.

From wandering around the Palace of Versailles to purchasing an item from the iconic Chanel store (which was the very first one to open), it is safe to say that Gabi's trip to Paris was like a movie.
