Do women make the world go round? The window dresser at the Diesel store on Etienne Marcel thinks so. I couldn't resist taking photos of these funny windows the other day.

A few blocks away on rue Montorgueil, I salivated over the Eiffel Tower made of macarons in the window at the gourmet shop Stohrer. What a concept, eating your favorite monument!
Lastly, a giant sneaker in an athletic shoe shop on the rue Pierre Lescot completed my morning of discovering quirky shop windows.
