Cannes Can, Can you do the Cannes Can?

La Croisette, Main shopping street
A doggie boutique to ensure even their little pets are decked out suitably
Sweet treats almost too pretty to eat
My Favourite Boutique, this place is too amazing (will follow up on this grand brand)
Typical Cannes Style
It's all eye candy here 
Another perfect example of their style
Glorious buildings are just normal
The Carousel along side the beautiful sea

The palm trees, a common feature here
So Cannes Festival has just been and gone and as usual the mania of who wore what, glitzy parties and private yachts ensued. Having lived in the south of France for quite some time, we were frequent visitors of Cannes. It's a city of luxury and excess. It's funny because I see it as the french version of Miami. Streets lined with palm trees, upscale boutiques around every corner, the beautiful blue sea and glorious yachts are evident at first glance. But not to forget the majestic buildings standing tall along the sea side road and pretty little tarts in all their sugary delight staring intently at you from the window of the many patisseries. Watching the people of Cannes go by is a real treat who are always dressed the part. Cannes style is quintessential riviera-n charm, but with that certain extra bit of flash, all tastefully done of course. Cannes is a place like no other! Everyone and anyone should go to soak up the beauty, the excess, the sunshine and be inspired, in the only way Cannes can.
