The best fashion and gift stores Lyon 5th 69005

Flashover is a "creator of objects in Paris", but the Lyon shop is one of the most important addresses when visiting… Old Lyon. Yes, design and modernity awaken the pavés of Renaissance streets with shimmering colours and amazing shapes for everyday objects nicely reinvented. It's hard to escape, especially on Sunday when Flashover is the only boutique open in town and you can't make the empty hands at this brunch organized by our best friend.

The Maison de la Presse is precious. With no less than 3,000 French, regional and foreign press titles, it feeds appetites in all fields, from the most serious to the most amusing. At the entrance to the tourist district of Old Lyon, La Maison de la Presse also offers maps, guides and beautiful books so that you don't get lost in the city and admire all the faces of Lyon and its region. Maps and stationery shop. Souvenirs, goodies and smiles from a staff never short of good advice. Shipping and telephone services.

No smoke without fire - this is to tell you to stop smoking before burning your life - but not to vapotage without pleasure or advice. So, to start vapoter safely or continue to vapoter in complete serenity, direction the Vapoteur de Saint-Jean. In the heart of the historic quarter classified as World Heritage of Mankind, no wonder whether this boutique is open or closed, since it is open every day in large hours! Practice. And then the shop is really beautiful, far from what one can expect, clear and warm at a time, with elements of decor in natural materials, stone and wood. But the most important thing is the advice it offers to guide us towards the choices best suited to our needs and the quality of the products selected. And to vary, the Vapoteur de Saint-Jean also offers electronic pipes and numerous accessories. A smart address without a smoke screen where you taste the true happiness of vapoter.

Silk, an integral part of the local heritage, is one of the most beautiful gifts made in Lyon. Although the looms have disappeared from Old Lyon, high quality silks can be found at Brochier Soieries - La Soierie de Saint-Jean. Brochier Soieries is one of the oldest silk houses in Lyon. Fashion accessories (scarves, squares, ties) made on a Jacquard loom and hand-painted are on sale in the store and online on the Internet.

Piaton, an address of enthusiasts since 1929 where lovers of Italian mechanicals come to enjoy Vespa GTS Super Sport or Primavera. Very fashionable, the MP3 from Piaggio to move around town and a little further with more power. Beautiful revised occasions. The workshop is irreproachable. In the same spirit, the store presents all the necessary material to improve your scooter and complete your outfit. Helmets, protective jackets, gloves, anti-theft devices and Vespa-related products to make you look Italian.

Here it is a little Babylone of the video and the DVD. Judge instead: 20 000 titles spread over 240 m 2, three front distributors and really attractive formulas for members: from 1 € to 4 € per 24 h or weekend (prices vary depending on the novelty of the film). A colour pastilles code allows you to easily locate it. The membership card is free. First minimum supply: € 30, plus 7 € bonus offered. Then the reload is free. Note that you can now, competition from the cable force, rent movies without leaving home via VOD (Video On Demand).

The boutique is a great place to celebrate Lyon silk and the work of artisans. Here, tourists or Lyonnais come to buy scarves, stoles, ties, scarves and squares in this noble subject to centuries-old tradition. Pannes, twill, muslin… bright colours draw the eye and dress a little sad. All the rooms are manufactured at Atelier des Pernambuco, rue Romarin. There are demonstrations here, however, 7 j/7. We love the beautiful loom in the middle of the shop. The shop also sells wholesale fabrics for clothing.

Of course, its stock is not huge (6 000 films - only 2 000 dvds), but it is one of the few places where one can enjoy an irresistible desire for author film, French cinema or revoyure of a little old film. Of the 50 to 60 new films of the month, we're sure to find the one that missed the LWOP one year ago. The subscription formula is attractive, especially for student budgets. And a distributor allows access to the 240 most recent films, out of the opening beaches.

It would also have been possible to say the worlds of Alba, since the universe of this renowned designer (it is present on the largest salons) is in several themes: the days of Alba, the ready-to-wear with interior clothing, dresses, tunics, coeur. Alba Nights, Pajamas, Kimonos, Nuisettes. Alba dreams are linen, and Alba's folies, interior decoration. Fabrics and patterns are original and unique, inspired by traditional techniques and travel. It's beautiful, modern, colourful and comfortable. There are chances that your dreams will become softer.

Between the old-fashioned, patinated spectacle-makers' workshop, the trendy architect's loft, the large table for convivial sharing and the club armchairs for relaxing during fittings, this boutique in the Saint-Georges district offers a splendid showcase for your future eyewear.
