520 "A joyful, aspirational, and approachable guide to
embracing life the Parisian way, from American expat and
founder of the French lifestyle brand Madame de la Maison.
The French are known for their joie de vivre-celebrating
the little things in life-a philosophy Ajiri Aki has
embraced over the past ten years of living in Paris.
Nigerian American Aki fell in love with Paris on her first
brief visit there (only a single day) while in college.
With a background in fashion and having earned a master's
degree in decorative arts, it wasn't until she moved to
Paris full time that she began to absorb lessons from the
French: finding beauty in simple things every day,
decorating with fresh flowers and flea market finds,
taking time to find the best ingredients for a dish and
gathering with loved ones around the table to share a meal
or a glass, and perhaps most importantly, learning how to
"être" - or just be. In this beautifully photographed
volume of everything French, Aki shares all she's learned
living in Paris, from hosting a perfect apéro (happy hour)
to becoming a leisure-loving flâneur (loafer) in your own
town, to how to find and celebrate joie de vivre. Explore
all the prettiest Parisian cafes, plan a multi-course
dinner party, learn how to properly loaf like the French,
who work to live-rather than live to work-and allow
yourself to slow down and find beauty and joyful moments
all around you. With lush photographs of Paris's diverse
landscape of food, people, culture, and architecture, Joie
makes you eager to book your next trip to the City of
Lights and to create that magic no matter where in the
world you are"--|cProvided by publisher.
