My favorite store in Paris was called Colette. It is one of the world's top trend-setting boutiques. Spread out on 5 five floors in the heart of the 1st arrondissement in Paris, Colette sells everything from home furnishings to music to high end couture.i
Recently they have hopped on the eco-friendly bandwagon. Honestly, Europeans in general are more conscience about the environment than we are, but they do it in more subtle ways. For instance they are sticklers for turning off lights and doing laundry in the evening to waste less water. This could have just been the family I lived with being cheap and trying to save money on their bills, but I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt.
