I've tweeted about it a few times but this is my official announcement that I AM GOING TO EUROPE for holiday in less than 2 weeks!!! So here's my call to action: I need all my fellow beauty and fashion lovers to suggest some great shops, brands resaurants, etc...

The deets:
I'll be splitting 10 days between London and Paris. Are there any brand/stores I should put on my list? (any I should avoid?)
I've put my hotels into the maps so you can see my starting points.
How you can help me:
Leave a comment below or email me your suggestions. They can include shops, restaurants, brands to check out, neighborhoods, museums and other attractions, etc... I already have my hotels covered so I don't need any suggestions there. I've started google mapping some places out, but I need more suggestions! Yes, it's kind of sparse right now.

I'm still debating whether or not to take my laptop but I'm sure there will be all sorts of instagraming, tumbling and tweeting (again... if wireless is available). Oh, that's another thing... Is there wireless all over the place or am I just S-O-L?
Thanks so much for all your help! I can't wait to share my finds with all of you!
ps. Sorry if this is coming off as a humblebrag, this is my first time to Europe and I cannot be more excited!



You'll find plenty of wi fi in Europe, but you'll pay for it (sometimes quite a lot). Unlike the States, there's precious little free wi fi in Europe's major cities. There were a couple of places in London where I was able to find no cost internet access, but never in Paris. I always travel with a laptop because it can come in really handy for things like booking discount tickets, figuring out how to get around, etc. but I also build internet access into my travel budget. Have an absolutely fantastic trip!!
