YOLO Journal Summer Issue 19

This summer we’re devoting our entire issue to one city, and it’s a keeper. With help from our local friends and insiders, we’re sharing a side of Paris that makes us even more excited to return—even for those who know it well. Of course, we nailed the timeless spots we love: the classic French bistros, brasseries, and grand dining rooms where time stands still—but also the cool new tables, apéro spots, and low-key neighborhood favorites where locals go on repeat. We dive deep into Parisian shopping, from iconic ateliers and bespoke shirting to elevated vintage and handcrafted homewares. You’ll find guides to the best gallery-hopping neighborhoods, compelling niche museums, a game plan for tackling the flea market, and hacks to beat (or avoid) the crowds at the cultural hotspots. Plus ideas for making Paris fun for both parents and kids, so you can seamlessly eat-shop-drink-and people-watch your way through the most enchanting city on the Seine.
