HAUTE COUTURE MORNING
in the Golden Triangle

Nothing beats a couture fashion shopping spree to start the day off right. And here, almost everything is within walking distance. From Hôtel de Sers, you're right in the heart of the Golden Triangle, where iconic fashion houses stand alongside more discreet designers.

Let's start with the essentials of Parisian elegance:

• Chanel, Dior, Saint Laurent, Balmain, Givenchy—all these legendary brands have boutiques on Avenue Montaigne or Rue François 1er. You'll discover key pieces from the latest collections, plus the added bonus of a personalized shopping experience at select flagship stores.

Yet Paris wouldn't be Paris without its discreet, hidden designer gems:

• Maison Rabih Kayrouz (38 rue de Bellechasse): Architectural silhouettes and noble fabrics in an incredibly serene showroom.
• Dice Kayek (20 rue de la Baume): Poetic, feminine minimalism for those who appreciate statement pieces.
• Maison Ullens (4 rue de Marignan): Understated chic and luxurious fabrics, perfect for a sophisticated travel wardrobe.

And for accessory lovers: Sylvie Corbelin (60 rue François 1er), an artist-jeweler who blends surrealism with refined craftsmanship in unique, statement jewelry.

Need a break between fittings? Head over to Carette (4 Place du Trocadéro) for a café crème served in vintage china, with a delightfully Parisian atmosphere—and a view to match.

LUNCH À LA PARISIENNE
Where to enjoy a chic lunch with mom?

After a stylish morning, it's time for an elegant lunch break in a setting worthy of your shopping adventures.

• Loulou: Located in the Musée des Arts Décoratifs wing of the Louvre, this trendy spot attracts Paris’s chic and artsy crowd. Expect Mediterranean cuisine, a sunny terrace (weather permitting), and plenty of inspiring people-watching between bites.
   

HEADING TO JEWELRY
Place Vendôme and beyond...

It is impossible to imagine a mother-daughter day without a sparkling escape into the world of high jewelry. From Hôtel de Sers, head toward Place Vendôme, the ultimate temple of exquisite jewelry.

Must-see spots (even if just for window-shopping):

• Van Cleef & Arpels, Chaumet, Cartier, Boucheron, Piaget - each of these houses embodies a piece of French jewelry history, their windows showcasing true masterpieces.

But for more unique and discreet treasures, here are a few addresses you'll want to share only with your closest friends:

• Elise Dray (rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré): Delicately rock-inspired jewels that elegantly break the rules.
• Marie-Hélène de Taillac (8 rue de Tournon): Renowned for colorful gems and a whimsical universe halfway between fairy tales and Oriental treasures.
   

WHERE TO HAVE TEA
like a true Parisian?

After so much excitement and sparkle, it's time for a well-deserved sweet break. Luckily, Paris is full of dessert spots as beautiful as they are delicious - perfect for a mother & daughter pause.

• Angelina (Rue de Rivoli): Legendary for its old-fashioned hot chocolate and Mont-Blanc pastry, served in an irresistibly Belle Époque setting.
• Ladurée (Avenue des Champs-Élysées): Paris’s most famous macarons in a pastel dream of a tearoom, all femininity and elegance.
