2. Love the vintage magazine store :39-43 Brewer St Soho London London W1F 9UD

If you find yourself in Hawaii , Oahu , head to the North Shore .There is a cute resort : http://www.turtlebayresort.com/ . The most fun beach is Shark’s Cove , where you can body board ) Also check out Waimea Falls area
My favorite restaurant though is in Waikikii at Haleculani resort , called “La Mer ” The food is delicious !

Meantime between fashion shoots and commercials , it has been a nice few month to enjoy life . It’s the most amazing transformation of a woman’s body while pregnant , when your skin becomes luminous , your breast are the perfect dream size ) and you feel just so high from life ! I like to keep it simple with a few of the exercises ( pictured ) and yoga .

  After my recent trip to Paris I saw yet again  that food there is more than necessity , it’s an extreme pleasure . It’s like the six sense .  And the food cravings during pregnancy are like that too  ….what a surreal nature )  like you’re possessed .  Having a boy 2 years ago is completely different then having a girl this time . I figured with boys you’re dying for  protein in every possible way . Almost never eating meat before , I started ordering lamb chops , steaks , obsessing about getting a new grill ) dreaming of truffles …The taste had to be salty and spicy  .My advice if you want to stay healthy , don’t eat too much cheese and stay away from mayonnaise

With girls its all the opposite , sweet , sweet sweet ! Making home strawberry  pie  is a must . Lobster as a sweet protein and I’m addicted to grapes (very model thing to say , but they are so sweet )

I think anyone who goes to Paris has his own intimate relation with the city , his coffee place , his street , bistro … I love Paris , french know how to get pleasure out of anything in life , so here’s my favorite things around:

1 Stay

If you’re on romantic weekend , try to stay at hotel Costes at least for a night , it’s worth it , ultimate Gem on rue  Saint -Honore

If you’re in Paris with small kids I would advice Citadines St Germain : www.citadines.com/en/france/…/saint_germain_des_pres.html , amazing location , very helpful service and they have a kitchen in every room  ( you know kids: )it helps ) there’s an authentic french market around the corner to buy fresh produce  ….

2 Eat

My favorite places are Fouchon for lunch www.fauchon.com/, Caviar Caspia for a romantic drink 17 Place Madeleine
75008 Paris, France
01 42 65 33 32 , and Maison de Truffle for dinner www.maison-de-la-truffe.com

Or just check out local markets on Villers metro Station ( Levis market ) , and any speciality food store is amazing ! And best ice cream is at Berthillion : 31 Rue St Louis en l’ile
75004 Paris, France
01 43 54 31 61 3 Check out

I’m obsessed with Pompidu museum :www.centrepompidou.fr/ , Dali is interesting www.daliparis.com/ , take  a boat from Pont Neuf on a sunny day , all those small streets near Saint -Germain are full of surprises

there’s a beautiful playground for kids near Notre Dame Cathedral www.notredamedeparis.fr/

4 Shop

My favorite hip store in paris ( if you like vintage and fashion ) is Killiwatch:espacekiliwatch.fr/  or of course there’s Collette for the latest trends :www.colette.fr/

So far I have discovered :

Calypso makes great dresses with the hip waist :

www.calypsostbarth.com

Woolford makes skirts ,that stretch and are  flattering on every shape :taisha skirt

http://www.wolfordshop.com

H&M has fun Men’s department , which is a good size and looks  sexy

The search continues …..

Happy to announce that I’m taking few month from modeling to welcome my second bundle of joy in September 2011  , life is a rollercoaster )
