Bookstores:<\/h2>\n

1) Librairie Ofr.<\/h3>\n

20 Rue Du petit Thouars, 75003 Paris<\/em><\/p>\n

This bookstore is a reference on fashion, photography, architecture, and design. You will find many things on these specialised topics. Passionate people will welcome you with a smile and will definitely give you great advice!<\/p>\n

You will not only find literary books but also accessories (scarves, candles, diaries\u2026), perfect for a gift. In the backroom, you will find a gallery where lots of paintings are displayed and which also hosts previews all year long. The backroom is also used as a place for private sales with knock-down prices. So, don\u2019t hesitate to ask for information.<\/p>\n

This bookstore also has a large collection of postcards including photographers Arno Lam\u2019s and Fran\u00e7ois Coquerel\u2019s ones.
\nFor all English speakers or Anglophiles, note that this bookstore also provides international magazines, even issues from the previous months, but you will have to ask the employees for them.<\/p>\n

Even though it is a bookstore before anything else, it also serves as a main point of sale of \u201cMeilleur Ami\u201d (literally translated: Best Friend) which is a small Parisian brand of men\u2019s accessories.<\/p>\n
