KG in Paris | The Edit

A few favorite moments, must-haves, and how I survived the heat.

I head to Paris every June and October while Kris is there for the market. This time, the trip was longer, so I turned it into a mini work trip. I brought my video editor Alex, and it ended up becoming a combo of family time and content creation when my parents and sister joined too.

I love Paris, but I have my issues with it. The energy can be intense, and this time it was so hot I was truly uncomfortable. Add in the fact that AC is basically nonexistent, and… yeah. It was a lot.
But the food, laughs, and memories? Worth it.

Faves from the Trip:

Coffee, croissant, and best meal:

• Coconut milk iced cappuccino from Kith in the 8ème
• Croissant from the Ritz Bakery oddly shaped like a churro, but unreal
• Lunch at Grand Café at Le Grand Palais fresh, beautiful, and delicious

Neighborhoods I love: The 8ème + Le Marais
Travel bag hack: My Away “Everywhere Bag” fits everything

GLW Must-Haves I Always Pack:

1. Leafy Prana: nature’s Tylenol
2. Clean Skin Club Towels: no hotel towels on my face
3. January Labs Mist: mid-flight + mid-day refresh
4. Copper Dry Brush
5. Saint Jane Mucin Cream: my skin thrived

Cultural Moment:
The balloon exhibit at Le Grand Palais interactive, beautiful, and running all summer. 

Dinners I loved:
Lou Lou, Gigi, and Rennommé touristy but always worth it for the vibe + food
