Welcome to Parisienne Farmgirl
From Brontë to Boondocks, I’m as pragmatic as I am fanciful. As farmy as I am fashionable. One side of my being has been nurtured with glamour and an upscale aesthetic, while the other side grew in desperate love for open fields and the feeling of soil in my hands. My family, preference for femininity, and a love for times gone by makes me who I am. I am ‘Parisienne Farmgirl,’ and I’m delighted that you’re here.

“This is the bit where I tell you about myself…”
As I understand it, this is the bit where I tell you about myself, however, were we over bubbly or an espresso, I’d much rather talk about you, but you’re there, and I’m here, and apparently, it’s my turn.
My name is Angela, and I suppose I’m what you would call an ‘old soul.’ I’ve been “who I am” since I was a little one (aside from a few dreadful moments in high school, of course).
My childhood hero was the Princess of Wales (and if you stick around long enough, you’ll hear the story a few times of how I met her.)

Maidens and Their Artist
This lovely lady has a spotlight in my YouTube video from the other day. I look forward to sharing that with you here: She’s a lovely maiden in bronze, and someone made her by hand, and yet, I can find nothing about her creator. She lives on, but her artist’s name has...
First Thoughts on Returning to Paris
I’ve been sitting here for a week now, trying to decide what to write. How does one even begin to put into words the joy of returning to something that you thought was lost to you forever? I’ve typed and deleted about a hundred sentences in the last half an hour… I...
