Van Cleef & Arpels Bridal Bar

Located at 3, rue de la Paix, Van Cleef & Arpels fabulous new Bridal Bar lets you play Grace Kelly for a day. From Monday to Sunday, 11:30AM to 8:30PM, brides-to-be (or bridal wannabe’s) can perch on high stools at the über-chic glass showcase/bar, sip champagne or an espresso and order from a “menu” of collections such as Promesse, Frivoles or Fleurette. The layout and hours of this new showroom are innovative to fine-jewelery shopping in Paris. From the Van Cleef and Arpels Press Packet: “Because there are days other than the week-end for shopping; because the working day flies by so fast and no one likes to arrive at a boutique to find the door closed; because sometimes jewelery can be bought like a bouquet of flowers.”…ahhhh, works for me! Plus, I bet you can’t help but just take a teensy peak at their Alhambra collection, which is still basking in its’ 15 minutes by being Eva Longoria’s BFF bridesmaids gifts.
