PARIS VLOG : shopping (with prices!), my favourite restaurant + what the Olympic set-up looks like

[@esbee24]

You two are so adorable. I love Jean. He's a keeper. Hope you two continue to have fun in life.

[@marcelalopezlira7105]

You guys are the cutest! Jean's face after the first vanilla taste was priceless. 😂 Good quality vanilla doesn't taste sweet. It still tastes like alcohol but with the vanilla scent. I agree with you both. Let it sit longer and it will be good. 👍🏼

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

But why does it have to smell so good 😭 I was so convinced it would be delicious hahah

[@marcelalopezlira7105]

@@Ariellelaparisienne It still will be delicious! You'll see!

[@soniakhurana3173]

Loved your vlog ! ❤️ both jeans looked really good on u . And since u have lost weight u look even more beautiful! U guys r such a cute couple . God bless both of u ❤️❤️

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Thank you so much ! ☺️

[@MaryAnnMroz-h7l]

Jean is such a hoot! BTW, Arielle, you are looking gorgeous! Your skin is flawless!

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Ah thank you so much ! ☺️🫶

[@jillwestra9864]

Thanks for the vlog! Still nice to see around Paris. Please tell Jon after the nice things it’s okay to say “and you got a great deal!” 😂

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Hahahahaha LOVE the tip will pass it on to Jean 😂🫶

[@ceer9141]

This video was so fun! I usually only get to see Lafayette at Christmas so this was great to see. Amazing sight seeing in this vid, the SECOND pair of jeans was 😍 ( and not cuz they were cheap LOL), and the faces you both made tasting the vanilla 😅 I was thinking your own would taste great! P.s. you looked supercute in this vid, you always do but your skin is just glowing! I love vids with abit of this and abit of that. It's like spending the day in Paris. Amazing! 💗

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Ah thank you so much ! ☺️ yes I love showing a beautiful summer day in Paris ! Good point about the galleries Lafayette it’s so true that most people only add it to their “must see” list at Christmas time haha

[@patriciateague8677]

I think Jean's right suggesting putting it in a recipe. I don't think it would ever be tasted straight out of the bottle. With the alcohol content it would be very strong.

[@nadiamurray2413]

Enjoy your vlog. I will be in Paris in September - after the Olympics which I am very much looking forward to. A suggestion for vanilla tasting is to add it to some milk. Straight up is unpalatable!

[@abbiekaric8949]

Cute taste test. I make my own vanilla and it gets darker and better the longer it sits.

[@dorismajefsky7405]

Thank you Arielle love always watching , Question what is your eye shadow looks lovely,

[@ameliasmart119]

Loved the vlog and the taste test 😂

[@alomafoggo3239]

It was lovely seeing Paris 💙 The sales!!! Wish I was there!

[@iniabellepaz445]

Hi Arielle, you looked so chic today, love the “sale” jeans, they looked great on you. I did vanilla too but waited 6 months to use it. Also once a month I would shake the bottles. Hello to Jean, hope he got rest! Stay well.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Ah thank you so much ! ☺️ ok good to know you waited 6 months !!! I’ll wait another 4 before our next test 😆

[@meganmkinney]

Love the Olympic update!

[@cynthia2233]

You two crack me up! I tasted Vanilla when I was probably 10, thinking it would be as good as it smelled! Lesson learned early! You could maybe mix it in with plain yogurt or even a little sugar to taste it. You should look it up! Trip to the Galleries' was fun! We did go in when we were there a couple of years ago. We had lunch in the little cafeteria inside. Looks like the weather cleared quite nicely for you to have lunch on the rooftop! They changed the I Love Paris sign!

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Yes I love vanilla with plain yogurt ! Will do that for the next test 😂 so glad you got to see the galleries in person, it really is such a beautiful shopping centre

[@michelemarie2499]

Your videos are amazing 🤩 Thank you so much 🤗🧚‍♀🎶

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Thank you ! ☺️

[@amyfaurote1488]

Even though there was a lot of construction, Paris touched my heart.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Yes ! Honestly it’s just the epicentre that’s tough, everything else is beautiful and open this summer ☺️

[@MsTironce]

Hi there. Love your videos. Could you do a video on proper casual attire you should wear when walking around town? Some people are super dressed up and some I see are super casual. What’s appropriate to wear during the day in August? It’s giving me anxiety 😢

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

I love this video topic ! I will absolutely make a video on this ☺️🫶

[@judywade-bell6816]

A large antique map of Paris above your couch would be stunning.

[@MarlettaWEA]

The vanilla experiment (Exactly why did you undertake it?) was hysterically funny. The expression on your and Jean's face! OMG. Great buy on those jeans. Hard to believe they have such huge markdowns. And it seems so organized for a big sale. Nice to see you able to be out in the SUN for a change! Looks as if Paris is going to be a mess for the Olympics. Good luck. Did you hear how the AMericans and others are having to bring Air Conditioners as there is none in the French supplied temp housing? OMG.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

I was fooled by the smell 😭 I thought for sure it would taste good 😂 yes the sales are so well organised because they are regulated by the government ! Because they only happen twice a year, I think the stores really go all out in presentation 😆 yes I heard so many countries are brining them 😂 the thing is…. Air con is so incredibly rare in France and Europe… your body just adapts haha so I can understand I guess why athletes that are used to a colder atmosphere would need it :/

[@MarlettaWEA]

@@Ariellelaparisienne The government regulates sales? Only twice a year? You could never get away with that in the USA. Sales are almost nonstop here, especially tied to national holidays. But France has the better discounts I think from what you've shown us.

[@waxas2305]

Hi, in your opinion which month have a better sale (bigger) in Paris, is it in June during summer or in January during winter?

[@sadie4me2]

Also, you need to choose the best vodka that you can buy. Tell us the recipe you used to make your vanilla. Where did you buy the beans and how many beans did you use?

[@anaisnin1469]

Ok y’all def have to give the vanilla a taste in a baked good!! 😂 of course it’s gonna taste toxic in the extract form. Vanilla bean paste is usually the one that tastes kinda sweet. Also lovee the jeans, I need to check them out for my long legged body. Jeans- I think it’s fine bc it’s cheap, Killed me 😂

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

It smells so good I for sure though it would taste good too 😭 omg the jeans are actually amazing, it is so rare to find anything that fits my loooong legs so definitely check them out if you have them where you are !

[@Lyazhemsky]

We will be in Paris from August 26 until September 5.After watching your video i got nervous.. Almost everything is closed. How do you sing is bad time for travel? Thanks

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

You will be arriving at the tail end of the olympics so you should be ok ! Next week is the opening ceremony which requires the most closure… make sure you check out the map on the government website and put in your dates ! You will see pretty quickly which areas to avoid ☺️ No stress !

[@inespk]

The one from Costco is vanilla extract, used for baking. You’re trying two different things 😂

[@sadie4me2]

I like your watch. Please tell me the brand so that I can buy it. Thank you.

[@katymcwhirter]

Love these jeans! Although they must’ve been more off? 70% off €160 is €48?

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

You know what…. I think she accidentally gave me an additional employee discount because at the start she thought I worked for the store 😂 so maybe that’s why they were so so discounted haha

[@lorienmondragon]

How long are the sales? I’ll be there in a week and would like to buy me some €24 jeans

[@michaellima6272]

Since sales are nationally regulated, what happens to all the leftover marked down merchandise after the sales end?

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Great question 😬 no clue but it would be interesting to look into it because there are also laws against throwing out seasonal products that don’t sell 🤔

[@baxter8it]

Looking very French today. It suits you! Jean is beet red.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Thank you ! ☺️

Cute video

[@SD._]

Olympics time is terrible for those who want to explore Paris. Everything closed off. 😢

[@anneliesv6796]

If the 160 euro jeans has a 70% discount, doesn't that make the price 48 euros instead of 24? 🙂Or you have received an 85% discount 😀

[@RomyHouston-y9v]

There were two discounts….70% and then 50% which gets to the 24..

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

You know what…. I think she accidentally gave me an additional employee discount which must have been the extra 50% because at the start she thought I worked for the store 😂 so maybe that’s why they were so so discounted haha

[@anneliesv6796]

@@Ariellelaparisienne Anyhow, it;s a absolute steal! 😄👌🏼

[@janetcarter6975]

I let my beans/vodka sit 6 months before tasting.

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

Ok good to know !! ☺️

[@RomyHouston-y9v]

This would not be the time to go to Paris! Too much is closed off and unless you are rich rich you probably can’t get into a lot of restaurants. :(

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

I think in general the enclosures bother pedestrians, bikers and cars alike 😂😭 it’s definitely a bit of an inconvenience right now for sure :/

[@sadie4me2]

I don’t believe tasting the vanilla this way makes any sense. You should have a dab of vanilla ice cream and then some vanilla on top of that.

[@Mommaslew]

Curious….do you actually SEE the pickpocket happening?😮

[@Ariellelaparisienne]

It’s not so much that you see the theft happen but more that you can identify very easily who the pickpockets are…. Groups of people walking around with clipboards, the infamous group of young girls with huge bags in the metro, people who are watching/following tourists and walking close behind etc etc…
