Mercerie

I needed a buckle for my new Liberty tana lawn dress whilst in France.


Popped in this adorable shop in Villefranche de Rouegue


Le Bouton d'Or also carried a small , very good, lingerie section and baby clothes. Even though there was a wall of buttons and buckles the charming proprietress went to the back to find me just the right one.


I wish I had this shop near me.

  5. What a lovely shop. I visited a similar shop in Nice after taking a bus from Villefranche Sur Mer where our ship was anchored in the harbor. It is so much fun to find needlework shops while traveling!

    Hugs,
