Hidden away in a peaceful courtyard just off the Rue du Faubourg St Antoine in the 12th arrondissement in Paris is a recent addition to the lively local vintage fashion scene. Lali Moli opened this charming venue only a few months ago which I discovered on the way to one of my favourite shops Caravane Chambre 19 just […]
