What do I wear??????

What's the point of having a blog if I never write??!  I've been AWOL for over a month and my trip is quickly approaching.  I'm obsessing about what to wear in Paris.  Pants vs skirts?  Pack a huge suitcase of everything I own so that I'm prepared for anything?  Or travel light, with a few basics crammed into a carry-on bag??  I so want to look chic in Paris, but I also want to be comfortable especially when I plan to do a lot of walking.  What kinds of clothes should I take?????

In my absence from blogging, I have been preparing for my Paris adventure.  I have been studying my favorite language, mais je parle un peu le Francais.  Quelque jours je pense que je parle tres bien, mais pas vraiment.  Eh bien.  And I have been reading books about Paris and about people who have moved there to live - expats and their adventures.  French Fried was about a couple from England who bought a farm in Southern France.  From that I learned many of the red-tape complications of moving to France.  French Lessons gave me some opportunities to think in French and a few new vocabulary words.  Me, Myself, and Paris was written by a California woman - like me - who goes to Paris for six weeks every year.  I've learned some of her favoite non-museum places to go.  Of course, all these books are in English, but I'm getting the spirit, history, geography, language of la cite'. 

Twenty-four more days till I leave!  So much to do!  What do I wear?
