It's often been said of film star and dancer Ginger Rogers that "She did everything Fred Astaire did, except backwards and in high heels." That phrase came to mind recently when I saw this image of Catherine Baba taken by Tommy Ton of Jak & Jil Blog. In case you were wondering, those are 5-inch platform stilettos she's wearing while gracefully cycling through Paris' Place Vendome. Respect.
Sincerely,

Hahaha!! Between the bicycle spokes and her robe + heels, this looks like a "do not try this at home" stunt. Or in this case, "do not try this in Paris!"

Why do I prefer living in France instead of my native U.S.? THIS is why. Bravo.
