Your Inner French Girl

Before Mireille Guiliano published French Women Don't Get Fat, I stumbled on a book called Entre Nous: A Woman's Guide to Finding Her Inner French Girl, by Debra Ollivier. 

I read it cover to cover over the course of a weekend and continue to refer back to it every few months.  In that book I discovered that The Savvy Life and the French lifestyle have much in common including:
  • Focus your spending.
  • Quality over quantity.
  • Find enjoyment in the simple pleasures of life.

Like the French lifestyle, Savvy Living isn't about doing without.  It's about picking and choosing what you bring into your life vs. mindlessly consuming.  This control over your financial life brings joi de vivre.

    I also read that book and absolutely loved it! I've always felt a pull to the French and their lifestyle.
