Paris students in the sixties by Loomis Dean - let me live like this!
there was so much i adored about this advertising campaign. its so evocative of that summer warmth and sensuality you feel in the depths of the seasons.

last one of self-spamming i promise! this was the view from my room. okay, so for two whole days i could see nothing, the sky was so thick with clouds and the rain was near monsoon standard but for the one day that it did clear it was bliss. i wanted to hang out my window shouting “New York Herald Tribuneeee” but no. they’ve added these locks on windows, presumably so you can’t just throw yourself out of them. which is understandable i guess; in a moment of Keatsian reflection when you realise your life could never be this beautiful again - it could happen..

this was from a little book stand along the seine at pont neuf. now, however much i want to tell you that my encounter with the seller of these treasures involved discussing existentialism and the ‘68 riots (which it could have easily digressed to) - it was instead defined by his slightly senile friend laughing at my mispronounciation of a word from parisian dialect (FML i know) still, i got an 1874 edition of Da Porto’s ‘Romeo and Juliet’ and also The Little Red book, to which the seller shouted at the top of his voice “nous sommes pas les tigres papiers”
