Wearing The Red Just Like Hotel Plaza Athenee

The Hotel Plaza Athenee reminded me of a woman who knows how to wear a good red lipstick.
A hotel well known for accents of red has been sitting brightly on the Avenue Montaigne for as long as I can remember and I have walked past a million times but never ventured in. I have snapped the red geranium infused balconies and taken countless shots of the doormen against the red awnings; especially at Christmas time. Avenue Montaigne is one of those streets to see over the festive period.
It was only last weekend when I paid an impromptu visit to Paris that I made this connection. Hotel Plaza Athenee does remind me of a woman and her red lipstick and why the wearing of a red lip is such a winner.
Red accents are in profusion; in the furnishings, the carpets and have of course the world famous awnings and outdoor hanging geraniums. Contrasted against the red are the rich creams of textured upholsteries, the warmth of antique furnishings, white and creamy flowers (the hotel was full of beautiful white Arum lilies, bundled up and clumped into their Deco style vases) and the overwhelming twinkle of a myriad of chandeliers. The red, like our much-loved lipstick is an accent, a pop of colour and one, which really gives the hotel her personality.
