Escape to Paris at this
Nolita candle shop
What I'm sure I don't need is another candle—but when I received a Cire Trudon candle as a gift I was thoroughly impressed. The candles not only smell divine, they come in beautiful, hand-blown glass tumblers. I just had to squeeze in a trip to their NYC shop for more.
The Palace of Versailles' Hall of Mirrors was the inspiration for the Nolita store's decor. Between the vibrant blue walls, the gilded mirrors and the antique display cabinets, I honestly felt like I was in Paris. The candles en masse had me swooning, and their colored tapers were such a wonderful surprise.
If you are in NYC anytime soon, it's definitely worth the trip to this shop, tucked away at 54 Bond Street. After you've checked out the store, be sure to grab a cup of coffee across the street at Peels—the Stumptown brew is amazing!
