Behind the Glass: Valentine's Day

The store is now completely decked out for Valentine's Day & our delicious pâtisserie theme carries right over to our amazing window displays. And we've just gotta say, that between the myriad of floral patterns & the pastries that look yummy enough to eat, we're particularly fond of these somewhat eccentric windows. We only wish that we could actually pull up a chair & dig in to those delicious looking cakes or curl up for a nap in the bed that's completely decked out in florals. But I suppose for now we'll just have to use our imagination! Be sure to stop by the store soon to see these delightful windows & maybe even bring your sweetie along with you! ;)

Behind the Glass: Clue

Here at The Paris Market we absolutely love Halloween! And as much as we love planning out our costumes for ourselves, we love dressing up our windows here at the store even more. This year we were especially excited to debut our windows & if you haven't guessed the theme yet, they're based on the classic, murder mystery board-game, Clue! Take a guess to see if you can figure out who done it!, where they did it, and which weapon they used in each vignette. And just in case you're stumped, we've included the answers at the bottom of this post! As always, be sure to stop by the store soon to see the full effect of these awesome Halloween windows!

Behind the Glass: Savannah's Fashion Night

Tonight's the night! Savannah's Fashion Night is finally upon us & we've spent countless hours over the last two weeks getting our store in tip-top shape for this very moment. Our theme for the evening is French 60s Pop & we've had a blast getting the store all decked out with bright, pops of color. And if you've passed by our storefront on Broughton Street over the past couple of days, you've seen exactly what I'm talking about with our new window displays. We're hoping they set the tone for this evening to be as exciting & vibrant as they are. So don't miss out! Join us tonight from 6:30-11PM for what is sure to be a night full of good company, delicious food, lively music, and, of course, great fashion.

Behind the Glass: The Birds

Continuing with our Halloween window displays, our second storefront window draws upon another Alfred Hitchcock classic for inspiration. Yesterday we were caught looking out our Rear Window and today we're being chased by swarms of birds. Set in a small northern California town, The Birds is a bizarre film in which birds begin aggressively attacking the townspeople. Although our display won't be attacking customers in the store, it still manages to reflect the chilling and disturbing nature of the 1963 film. Like all of our window displays, you have to see them in person for the full effect, so be sure to stop by soon for a unique glimpse into some of the most classic scenes in film history!

Behind the Glass: Rear Window

With Halloween right around the corner we felt it was high time we set up a window display that reflects the approaching frightful holiday! Inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's classic 1954 film Rear Window, our new window display transports you right into L.B. Jefferies' (James Stewart) living room. Referencing the claustrophobic, anxiety-filled emotions James Stewart undergoes within the film, we wanted to keep our window equally as unsettling. The only thing missing from this scene is the terror-filled James Stewart himself. Check back tomorrow to see what classic film inspired our second window display!

Behind The Glass: Hand Painted Beauty

It's not very often that we get to showcase the side of our store, however Kelsey's hand painted windows are just too beautiful not to show off! We typically keep our window displays in the front of the store, but for Savannah's Fashion Night we wanted a storewide, all-encompassing presence that radiated beauty, fashion and jewels. In case you didn't get to see these beautiful paintings be sure to stop by and see them in up close!

Behind the Glass: Fruits of the Season

As we approach the end of summer, and a season that is typically filled with get togethers of old and new friends, the urge to celebrate the beauty of such an occasion came upon us. A one last hurrah for the long warm nights that are soon to be behind us. Filled with the bounty of a late summer harvest and the final fruits of our season, our windows are a snapshot of what brings us together and what is important in life. A glimpse into a late summer gathering with your closest friends and family sharing experiences in the wake of this warm season.
