Shopped in Paris

I collect Derriere La Porte decorating items for my house, as I've mentioned several times on the blog already (to see some of my collection, read these posts for instance: 1, 2, 3 and 4), and since this brand is actually not only French, but also Paris based, I took the opportunity to get 2 new boxes to add to my collection when I went to Paris recently.

What I got was this box to put bills in, a great way to keep unpaid bills more organized, I think:

And I also got a box to keep sunglasses in.
I love both boxes, but the sunglasses box doesn't fit all of my sunglasses, I am afraid, so I think I might have to get another one of these boxes eventually.

My Derriere La Porte wish list right now

Even though I just got some new additions to my Derriere La Porte collection, there are still so many more Derriere La Porte items I want to get. Sadly, not all of them are available in the store where I usually buy my Derriere La Porte items, so I think I will have to find them online.

Here are some of the items I want most at the moment:
A bill box, perfect to keep all your bills that you need to take care of right now organized
A medicine box, even though I tend not to keep that many medicines at home. But maybe I would if I had a cute box to store them in?
A box to keep scarves in. I have the box for lingerie, but the matching scarf box would be awesome too!
A box for nail polish bottles. Would be very useful for me, actually, since I never manage to organize my nail polish properly.
A change tray, to throw all those things you keep in your pocket in, at the end of the day.

Some new additions to my Derriere la Porte collection

I've mentioned the fact that I absolutely love the French brand Derriere la Porte Paris for all kinds of quirky, cool items for the house. (I've shown off some other pieces in my Derriere la Porte collection here, here and here previously)
So I am always thrilled to add more fun DLP pieces to my collection. The other day I got this cute little box for my lingerie:

And while it is rather big, it did not fit everything I have, so I think I need to get another one.

I also got a set of 3 jars, one to keep make up and beauty products in, one to keep hair accessories in, and one to keep jewelry in. What is great about these jars, however, is that you can staple them on top of each other, which means the whole thing takes very little space, gotta love that! (even though the jars can't contain all of my make up or all my jewelry, of course, but I decided to put items I use a lot in them, for easier access)
