Well, as Claudia Strasser proves within the pages of Paris: Flea Market Style, you havent properly thrift-shopped or market-hopped until youve been to Paris. Strassers book is a fantastic companion to the myriad of flea markets across France's capital, which have become the first place to look for salvageable objects as the city embraces "out with the old, in with the new". Some apartments, in the midst of Twenty First Century renovations, are having their mirrors and furnishings removed for the first time in centuries and it all flows in to the citys flea markets for people like Strasser to lovingly carry home.
