Meet Julia Comil, a Frenchy living in LA as a fashion blogger. "As a French fashion blogger based in the USA, people often tell me how much they love French fashion brands. Indeed, French fashion luxury labels (Chanel, Hermes, Givenchy, Dior, Celine, Chloe, etc.) are internationally famous and have been on trend for decades. The French girl style is a regular topic in international magazines. But French style cannot only be assimilated into luxury labels. It is actually a ma...tter of versatility, timeless elegance, modernity, and quality. Moreover, French women have access to a plethora of stylish fashion brands at different price points, which definitely help them to achieve the coveted French style."- Julia Comil If you need some fashion inspo tune into her blog at ModeRSVP.com and you'll find amazing content for all seasons of the year.

France is the first country to make throwing out food illegal. If you want to take a peek into what North America’s future may look like, take a look at France. At many grocery stores in Canada and the United States, it’s actually illegal to give away leftover supermarket food. In fact, this rule applies to food that is still perfectly good. However, as of 2016, France has made it illegal to throw away unsold food that is perfectly edible. Instead of tossing it in the tras...h, you must donate all unsold food so those who need to eat, can benefit from stores having a surplus of food. #france #paris #love #travel #nature #germany #instagood #italy #usa #art #picoftheday #europe #photooftheday #instagram #french #photo #fashion #spain #follow #like #s #canada #summer #igersfrance #london #travelphotography #bhfyp #nbff #nbfffrenchspotlight #nbfffrench Source:mapquest.com

In the mood for something spooky?? 20 meters underneath the streets of Paris, lie the Paris Catacombs. It is one of the largest graveyards holding the remains of 6 million people. Legend says that if you are in the catacombs after midnight, the walls begin to speak. You start hearing voices and begin to go deeper inside the tunnels unable to find your way out.

Happy Wednesday!
