I also love and anticipate your beautiful posts. It’s fun enjoying what you love too.
Wow what a lovely generous gift to such a precious part of the world. The opportunity would feed my soul. May you and your family have a beautiful Christmas.

Well that is a lovely dream on a lovely blog to start the work week ! Thank you.
I cannot think of anything that would be more magnificent!!!
Vicki
I start my morning off reading your inspirations for the day. A quick bit of energy or twist for the day or a moment away to vicariously go along on one of your ventures brightens my day. I have enjoyed your blog since the beginning . Being a francophile and interior designer I especially loved following the process of your creating Le Petit Bijou. I hope one day to have the opportunity to see it in person and experience all that you say it is! Thank you for sharing your tips and inspirations with us!
I’ve been enjoying your blog for years, and look forward to it every day!! I haven’t been to Provence in many years, and to win would mean the world to me!! Merci beaucoup!
Hi, Vicki — I love your take on fashion, style, and — yes — life in general (because to my mind, it’s all of a piece). You are at once, high fashion and down to earth — a rare combination. Accompanying visuals are great. The contest is a fabulous idea. Should I be the lucky winner, you can be sure my French speaking fiance and I will take you up on your offer.
Dear Vicki
You are so right, France waves a magic wand over you. I have been to Paris three times, but I dream of Provence. I imagine sleeping in your beautiful home and awakening to the legendary Provencial sunshine to start an exciting day. Truly, you are living our collective dream…perchance to share it, this life changing. Does one have to return to reality after?
Today is my birthday and a week in Provence would be a delightful celebration of my 63 years of a wonderful life!
Vicki
Yours is an delightful and inspirational blog.
To be relaxing and reading it at Le Petit Bijou would be extraordinary!
I hope to have an opportunity to experience this beautiful area of France.
Thank you
Having once lived in St Remy and with friends who still live there, I’d love the chance of coming back and re-visiting a place which has so many happy memories for me. Love your blog too!!
Happy holidays. Love your blog. Fingers crossed!
Have become a Norstrom’s regular thanks to your suggestions. Love shopping more than ever. I am introducing you to my teen age nieces by selectively passing on your wonderful insights and hints. Hope to see you in Provence.
Dear Vicki,
What a lovely thought! A week in Provence at Le Petit Bijou sounds absolutely dreamy. What a beautiful celebration to offer this opportunity to all your reader! Thank you.
Merci bien for the opportunity to apply. I cannot think of a better reprieve from a hectic life than a week in St. Remy. The winner will be able to enjoy being transported to a place of beauty and la joie!
thanks for giving a chance!!! susu
Yes please!!! Provence….. Saint Remy your beautiful ‘Le Petit Bejou’ the Wednesday market with all the delicious produce the people.
I understand your feelings for Provence and France you wish everyone could experience these feelings at least once.
‘Merry Christmas’
Provence I hear is a laid back region with many amazing towns & cities just waiting to be explored.
I run a bed and breakfast here in Adelaide styled in the french way. Soft greys and greens, hydrangeas and gardenias in the garden and shutters on the cottage. Could do with more inspiration so a trip to France would be wonderful regards Rosie
I would love to be introduced to the aromas & magical tastings of Provence….my imagination is running wild !
Oh Vicki, what a dream, as I live in Melbourne, your blog and much read and treasured books “My French Life” and “French Essence” have for some time given a wonderful insight into French life.
Thanks for your generosity of spirit..
Best Wishes to you and your family.
Elaine
Ok. I am in.
Joan
I have been a fan of you and of your writing since I bought your first book (and then the second!) years ago. Your daily blog is like an email from a friend – so warm and chatty – and full of delicious insights into places I love – or would love to discover. It’s my “big” birthday in 2017 – I cannot imagine a more wonderful treat than to enjoy your gorgeous house in St Remy. What a generous offer! Jeanette
Vicki, I have followed the transformation of Le Petit Bijou from day one. Oh how I would love to stay there even for a weekend – one week would be a dream. Your blog inspires me both creatively and as a woman. I have been an ardent subscriber since the very beginning of your journey. My French Life and French Essence still take pride of place on my coffee table. I remember when you replied to my email when I wrote to you about My French Life – to me that said I all! You are generous of your time & genuinely likeable. Like so many readers, I love reading your blogs. Each one is pure delight.
A week in Provence, esp. St. Remy, provides a wonderful opportunity to explore the riches of the region. Merci beaucoup and joyeux Noel.
How wonderful! St Remy is a beautiful place and I would love to take my darling there!
Dear Vicki, I miss France sooo much. I used to go there nearly every year when I lived in England. I had the most thrilling romance of my life one year in Ste Maxime – and it started at the baggage claim in Nice airport… The tales those suitcases could tell. I can remember what I wore on every occasion I met him. The elegant fashion and the aromatic essence of France seemed to be part of the mystique that heady summer. YES! YES! I’d love and appreciate a week at Le Petit Bijou in St Remy de Provence. Your inspiring site is a delight. Thank you for all your hard work!
My nephews and nieces are attending French school in San Diego. Ten year old Sophie is fluent. She says she will be my translator when we go to France. Provence would be lovely!!
I live in a very drab small prairie town in Canada and would love to see the beauty of small towns in Provence!
How awesome. So glad I found this. Have a great week!!
Jenny
I love the insights you share with us and have learned so much! A week in Provence, c’est magnifique!
Vicki,
I have followed you for several years now and it has been fun to read your insights and suggestions. I have enjoyed wearing the clothes and shoes that you have highlighted.
As a young girl, my family and I lived in southern France for two years and I have longed to go back to France.
Kathy Coe
Could only dream of spending my 60th Birthday next year in such a beautiful Provencial village, with the most special people in my life. Vicki you are such a beautiful person to provide such a generous opportunity. Joyeux Noel to you and your family!
Oh my goodness! Thank you Vicki!
St Remy is heaven on earth!!! One of our favorite places to explore..took friends there this summer
And Joel Durand chocolates are the best we have ever had
omg… It would be like a dream come true… xxx
Yes i would love it please..
My husband and I had a Paris and Provence trip planned in 2014 but life took a tragic turn and we never got to make the trip. Provence still beckons as a place to begin again. What a wonderful way to give back to your readers. I’ve enjoyed your posts everyday. Thank you
Your generosity is amazing Vicki. How fabulous it would be to be the recipient of your hospitality.
Provence! What could be more magnificent? I have visited Paris (city of light and love) and, since I am a small town girl, have always wanted to see the French Countryside. Love your posts, Vicki!
Oui, s’il vous plait!
Oh to peek inside St. Remy’s special “little jewel box”!
Since I first spotted My French Life in a book shop years ago I have yearned for a stay in Saint Remy de Provence. The book brought tears to my eyes for you were living my dream! Thank you Vicki for your courage and for taking us all on a fabulous journey.
Congratulations to whomever will win this amazing week. How generous and exciting. I love this blog!
I laughed so hard at your post awhile back about your husband taking photos of distant horses instead of you! It think I identified, because my husband would do the same thing!
Vicky,
Your blog seamlessly melds history, beauty, classic but also leading edge fashion. But above all it celebrates how innate and true style is ageless, timeless and can add joy and beauty to every aspect of our lives. Thank you for this.
Valentina
Oh Vicki, have been so busy with work this week I have only just seen this…OMG!! -What can I say!?… Be still my beating heart! A week in Provence at Le Petit Bijou, St. Remy, is on my bucket list so to win would be totally amazing!! Can’t tell how much I would adore it and appreciate every minute of it. Many have already made the comment but it would seriously be a dream come true! As you know you are my girl crush and I am addicted to your blog, instagram et all. Thank you for being so generous, this is an incredible offer and thank you also for adding a wonderful spark to my day.
Your amazing generosity is evident in every one of your blogs! A big thanks!
I look forward to your posts every week.
The message is straight to the point and very helpful but my favourite part of your post is the
photography, full of colour and style. Just brightens up my day, thank you.
I’ve never been to France. The closest I’ve come is reading your blog. Thank you for such fascinating and fun reading Vicki!
Thank you Vicki for updating your blog daily! The thoughts feed my soul.
Provence for a week would be great. I would visit Ashley from Curious Provence
Hello Vicky. What a wonderful and generous offer! Through your blog, I have gained such valuable insight into fashion and French lifestyle. I am a professional artist and would love nothing more than to spend a week in your adorable cottage with my paints and easel. I would explore the towns and countryside, capturing in paint that glorious light that inspired the great Impressionists. It would be a dream come true.
Hi Vicki Not sure how many times you can leave a comment as I left one yesterday but not sure if it was received I am so excited about a week in Provence at Le Petit Bijou I thought I’d try again Such an amazing & generous offer! I could think of nothing more wonderful than being there & seeing it for real after all this time of admiring it from afar As many have said , it would be a dream come true! Thank you for again for your blog & the daily dose of inspiration you always deliver.
Vicki what a treat, your blog always offers something special at the end of a busy day, and you top it off today with this, everyone would love to win so good luck to all, and thank you to you!
Thank you Vicki for your inspiring website!! I love the opportunity to see life through your eyes!!
Would love to escape to Remi!! Blessings to You!
Hi Vicki love your blog
My favourite place in the world is Provence . My sister and I drove around St. Remy trying to find Le Petit Bijou 2 years ago. All your fashion tips remind me of my French teacher who was so “chic “and entered the room on a waft of perfume. She used to mix Mystere de Rochas and Madame de Rochas together! I still remember it. Provence excites all those senses and I would love to stay at your little jewel!
A week in Provence would be a dream, for sure. I was in St Remy years ago with friends and have a very strong memory of outstanding food. My darling husband has never been to the south of France. He has just retired and celebrated his 73 birthday. Can you imagine anything more romantic than being in that beautiful part of the world, in your charming house and exploring together?
A week in Provence would be a dream. I have been to St Remy years ago but my darling husband has not. He has just retired and had his 73rd birthday. I can’t think of anything more romantic than a week exploring together.
Oh how wonderful! Thank you for such a fantastic opportunity! I cannot even believe this generosity you give.
Merci Vicki for your generosity and thoughtfulness in making this offer. What a wonderful Christmas gift for one of us. I hope you have a fabulous festive season. Love Trish
My dream trip! Thank you!
Merci Vicki – Dreamt of being in Provence. The sights, the people, the smells…all of it. What a phenomenal opportunity to be had. Thanks for the chance.
Bonjour Vicki,
Comme professeur de Francais, j’aurais voulu voyager à Provence, ou n’importe où en France. J’ai payé pour l’education de mes trois enfants et je travaille encore. Je voudrais aller en France un jour. Cela me donnerait tant de plaisir et de richesse. Merci beaucoup pour votre site web extraordinaire. Bisous et Merci
Bonjour Vicki!
J’aime votre blog et trouver le bonheur dans vos messages quotidiens. Un voyage en Provence serait incroyable pour cet étudiant! Réjouissez-vous de vos idées et conseils suivants :)
Vicki, what a wonderful offer, a week in Provence would be heaven on earth. I am also from Australia and have been to Paris once for 5 days 11 years ago. I was immediately captivated and entranced. I have dreamt of one day returning to France, this opportunity to experience the beauty of Provence would be a dream come true. Le Petit Bijou would be the icing on the cake. Thanks for the possibility.
A week in Provence!!!! In your beautiful place! Ce n’est pas vrai!!! As a young girl I spent a year in Nice at school… what a treat it would be to return!
Have followed you avidly for years.You may not realize but during the darkest days of my separating from my husband and changing my three adult children’s lives for ever, I would go onto your site and be captivated, recharged and feeling better.You were actually my divorce Therapist!
Now life on my own.I have even got onto instagram with much persuasion from one daughter.The only social media I have have ever done.Totally personal but public. No business or product to sell.Felt I knew what to say after reading so many of your blogs.Just love you Vicki.
love Andrea
I have been to Paris once & would love to visit Provence…Would be a dream come true!
Oh…St Remy!!! My fingers are crossed for luck. I’d love to win a stay at your spot…it looks fabulous! I’m enjoying your blog! Thanks for such a generous give-away!! ❤️🇫🇷
I adore Provence and especially St. Remy! I love your book, “My French Life” and have used your “french address book” several times. Thanks for sharing your resources and journey with us. I’m ready to go back!!
Thank you Vicki for your generosity and beautiful soul. Your blog has been an inspiration to all of us. I wake up to you everyday. What a pleasure. Thank you again.
Saint-Rémy-de-Provence is simply the most charming village to visit, love the friendly feeling of the town the choice of shops, restaurants etc a place in France not to be missed.
What a wonderful gift you are giving.
To all in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence a Merry Christmas & all the very best for the New Year !
Oh how lovely that would be. I adore St Remy and would adore a repeat visit.
I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.
I am 75 years old, and I would love to go to Provence and take my granddaughters too.
Joyously,
Betty
Perfect timing and a lovely place to start the next chapter of my life. Thanks Vicki for the very kind and generous opportunity to enter.
Dear Vicki
Might as well throw my hat in the ring, as I love St Remy and LPB so much. It’s a heavenly place!
Best wishes, Pamela

I’ll fix it for you, Pamela .. :)

Many thanks Vicki. have done so. Cheers, Pamela
Well, I subscribe via Bloglovin’ but now I’ve subscribed by email as well. I was in St. Rémy a couple of months ago for work and it was lovely. The Roman ruins at Glanum were my favorite thing, followed by the jazz guitarist who serenaded us at an outdoor café.
A week in Provence….surely you meant to say a week in Heaven.
Such a generous idea ! Wishing the best of luck to all this who enter xx
Hi Vicki, the chance to stay in your Little Gem, would be at perfect push for at weekend tour of Provence. If you are going to Provence for Chrismas, to post some Photos of your beautiful house and garden.
Henrik
Whilst I would love to be in the draw, I think it would be a little too greedy to win a second time ! But, I can guarantee the lucky winner will never forget this beautiful little slice of heaven.
This looks amazing and I would love the opportunity to see Provence and St Remy. Thanks for the giveaway! Happy holidays.
now, wouldnt that be the perfect Xmas present?
Thanks so much for the opportunity!
Having never been to Provence, this would be a wonderful treat. Or maybe a small honeymoon gift for my son and his lovely fiancé! Thank you so much for your generosity, and Merry Christmas Vicki
I would be very happy to stay again in Provence. Saint Remy is really nice and Le Petit Bijou is a jewel. Thank you for this opportunity ! claudiag
It’s always a pleasure to read your posts. Thank you for the opportunity to visit Provence as well.
What a dream this would be!
Oh Vicki, you KNOW I’d love a weekend in Provence! Put my name in the pot, please! I have been a subscriber for years now, and you know how I enjoy your ideas, questions, chats and friendship. What a glorious photo this is…OOOH, I can’t wait to see who wins! And by the way, thank you for the shout-out on IG. I think because of you, I had many visitors this weekend! HUGS!
Vicki – Many times I recall your posts and refer back when I am traveling to your region. Some of your leads on fashion save me a great deal of time and not having to search it out. Just a quick link. Thank you for all your hard work. Best, Gina
Dear Vicki,
I went to school in Aix in 1976, and returned for a reunion eight years ago. My husband and I took the opportunity to also visit Arles, Avignon, and St. Remy. I took glorious walks through the countryside (many places where Van Gogh had been) as well as walked around the town, visited the fragrance museum, ate wonderful food and met some lovely natives who were so tolerant of my French! It is my dream to go back again, but $$ is tight. Nevertheless, I get my Francophile fix through your blogs. Thank you so much.
I’ve followed you throughout the years through links and bloglovin’ – now I’m official, by subscribing. Love the blog. This is an amazing and generous give away.
Provence…love at first sight !
Hallo Vicki, Ihave been following your blogs from sunny South Africa. Each one of them is a ‘petit bijou’. At one time I was privileged enough to visit France regularly – fell in love with a little town called Lourmarin not far from St Remy, but then hard times hit.This visit will be a dream come true. In the past few years I have lost so much….maybe the tide has turn?
Just love your blog. Pictures, stories, personal insights – love it all. I have not been to St Remy but get a chance to visit through your postings.
What a amazing opportunity! Love France!
One of the best weeks of my life was spent at Le Petit Bijou – to repeat that would be just heavenly – I didn’t “touch sides” on absorbing the beauty of the area let alone the perfection of Le Petit Bijou – I must go back!! X
Wow, thank you Vicki! 😃
Dreams become reality
I so enjoy your blog and what a wonderful treat to offer your readers! How exciting!
How I would love to go to Provence!!
Dear Vicki, this trip to Provence would be a dream come true! I love reading your blog!
I love Provence and your blog and would love to have a week there. Thank you for this opportunity!
Would I like to spend a week in Provence. …
with my record of living where I visit, I have to give this some thought. With no cat sitter, I might have to not even go there :)
We visited St Remy last summer, stopping in all of the shops and restaurants you recommend. We loved everything about it and would love to visit again in 2017!
Vicki, I have been following your blog for quite awhile, love it!! You are such an inspiration to beautify our lives, inside and out!! It’s a dream of mine to go to Provence, # 1 on my bucket list!!
Much thanks,
Love seeing all your photos and reading your posts. Going to Provence would be a dream trip. Happy holidays!
Help, I am having the same issue as Pamela. Please help me to resubscribe :)
And, my comment is : Thank you Vicki for your blog. It is what gets me through my day or week sometimes. My dream is to one day go to France, but my husband is a school teacher and I am a part time nanny, part time retail clerk, full time mom with three kids, two of which are in college (Can you sense my money woes at this point, lol)…. Although a lovely trip would be on my bucket list (if I had one); I’m afraid reality has other plans :( . My only chance is to enter a contest! Thank you for the chance, and your life that you share with us who can only dream !
All done Elaine…
Just click on the verification email when you receive it xv
Wonderful blog ! And fabulous chance to win a week in St Remy ! I will be dreaming about it ….
I am subscribed to your inspiring blog through Bloglovin’. A trip to Provence is at the top of my bucket list! Blessed holidays to you and your family!
Dall’ Italia alla Provenza…un viaggio dell’anima già vissuto 6 anni fa, le figlie ancora piccole….da ripetere…un sogno divenuto realtà…
From Italy to Provence…a journey of my soul already lived 6 years ago, with two still young daughters….journey to repeat…a dream come true
J’aimerais visiter la Provence. Je vous remercie!
Love your blog, love your style, would love to experience all the charm of Le Petit Bijou and Provence! Je vous remercie, aussi!
My bags can be packed in a minute! Would love to travel to Provence in the new year!
I have followed your blog for ages – love all about it and would love to spend a week at
Le Petit Bijou! Best regards from Norway.
St. Remy was one of our favorite towns during a 2015 trip to Provence. Your offer provides a wonderful (and generous) opportunity to experience St. Remy.
From photos your home looks absolutely gorgeous. I would love to stay there. I was in St. Remy a few years ago with family. What a beautiful trip it was. To be able to go back would be a dream.
A week in Provence….with your special touch. St. Remy, here I come, to relax, explore, shop, and experience the beauty and love of life that is Provence.
Fabulous! I would love to spoil a beautiful friend with this for her honeymoon. Thanks Vicki xx
I visited St Remy many years ago and fell in love. Owning your beautiful, delightful books (they survived the recent flood!) I have been a long time subscriber, living vicariously through your photography and writings. From Louisiana, mille mercis.
On several occasions I have told my husband that if we are only able to take one more trip to Europe I want to go stay in Vicki Archer’s Le Petit Bijou in Saint Remy. When I feel stressed I often go to your website and dream my troubles away. Oh, yes please, I would love to be chosen!
Thank you for the chance to enter. My husband keeps asking me what I want for my 50th birthday in April. Didn’t know until now, I want a trip to Provence with my girlfriends :) My fingers crossed! Thank you.
Provence would be a delight!
Hi Dearest Vicki,
You know I would love another week at Le Petit Bijoux. I was planning on coming anyway but how can I turn down your generous offer.
Can’t wait to see you again in 2017.
Much love,
Audrey
I would love to see Le Petite Bijou and Provence! What a beautiful gift!

Pinch me!, …..this is what dreams are made of! Keep the inspiration coming…..it makes my day!
A dream holiday – thank you
Bon jour Vicki. What a generous offer. I have been a fan of yours for years following your advice on living, home, fashion and fun. Last year I brought my copy of French Essence in our container that we sent to our home in Italy. It has served as great inspiration. Happy Holidays to you and your family.
I love to travel on this site. My two French books you wrote sit on my coffee table as I read the advice and inspiration you send so creatively.
Sounds like a second honeymoon for us!
It would be a dream come true to stay there!
That would be the most heavenly Christmas gift! I have followed you for years from Vermont, where new flannel is our idea of chic! You keep me in touch with my favorite places, looks and events – please never stop posting!!
Yeah!! Thank you for offering up this jewel to a lucky reader!!
Your generosity of spirit is what is needed more in this world. Thank you for the opportunity of a chance to win…………….
Happy holidays!

I love reading your blog and “armchair traveling” to Saint Rémy!! Your photos make the village come alive!
Love your helpful and insightful posts! You’re most generous in your offer for one of your readers!

hectic schedules!
Best to you

A week in Provence would be heavenly! Thank you for offering such a generous giveaway.
Through your blog I get to go to France every day in my mind, a much welcomed few minutes of pleasure. Thanks for taking the time to write it and posting such beautiful photographs.
My daughter and I love everything French. An opportunity to take her to Provence would be an absolute dream before she goes off to college next year.
I LOVE YOUR BLOG! I feel as if I know you through your thoughts and sharing of the beauty of France and all of your other travels. It would be an honor and a pleasure to spend a week in Provence experiencing the place that is so beautiful and special to you – and which you have so beautifully shared with me and others. Thank you for the chance to do that!
OH yes please! My most favourite place to visit ❤️ Thanks for the opportunity Vicki
It would be a dream come true. I wait for your post every day!
Wow, Vicki,

If I don’t win, I am still dreaming of the day I can come to Provence and most assuredly be able to visit and meet you and see Le Petit Bijou. I beat pancreatic cancer, this would be some celebration ! XOXO
Absolutely, Suzanna!
Champagne required :)

A once in a lifetime opportunity… simply divine. x
A dream come true!
This is so exciting! Thank you for the opportunity.
Hi,
Love your blog. I haven’t missed a posting since I subscribed! Je voudrais d’allee aux Provence avec ma soeur Staci. Not too bad for high school French fron 30+ years ago. :o). Thanks for considering my entry.
Best, Sandi
I have loved your blog for several years. A week in Provence sounds like a dream!
What a wonderful gift you are giving of Le Petit Bijou! Ohh laa laa ~ I’m already starting to dream of Provence. Living in the USA and loving to travel to France takes my breathe away. Thank you for always inspiring me with your blog and photos. Your continual dedication to make us readers all happy and want more. As we continue to grow together as women and learning to better, I will look forward to more of your reads in 2017. I’m crossing all my fingers, toes and legs Provence is in my 2017 plans. Happy Holidays ~
Delightfully generous of you! Love your words,
I can always picture what your describing.
I am just retiring from 38 years in the women’s clothing store business, I have loved the fact that
Great style has so much more to say than fashion.
You have provided your readers with the opportunity to see the difference!
Thank you😘
Thank you so much Barbara.. what a lovely thing to say… You made my day.. :)
Vicki-
As you are always so generous in sharing ideas, inspiration and information on your blog, it’s not a surprise that you are equally generous in sharing your beautiful home! A week at Le Petite Bijou would be a dream come true!
A week in Provence what a dream.
If I won I would literally scream!
To stay chez Vicki
and win would be tricky,
but oh would my eye have a gleam.
Love this Sue… Thank you :)
Thank you for the inspiration! I enjoy reading your blog each day :)
What a wonderful gift a visit to Provence would be!
I’ve never been to France. A week in St Remy would be a delight, I’ve read your blog for years & thoroughly enjoy it…especially the antics of Ghetto. I’ve gotten many good ideas from you…books, decorating, recipes….& I always enjoy the photos. Bon jour🍷
Le Petit Bijou looks so beautiful! It would be a treat to stay there.
Oui, Madame Archer!
J’aimerais y rester et pratique mon français, s’il vous plait. Merci pour l’opportunité.
What a magnificent and generous gesture.
Vicki, thank you for offering this wonderful escape! My husband and I were in Saint Remy last May and absolutely loved it.
I love your blog. I find inspiration daily! Merci Merci.
I am already a subscriber but wanted to say Thank you for all you send to us through your blog. France, travel, food, healthy eating, fashion, beauty –it’s all there for us to enjoy /think about,dream about or act upon! I’ve never been to Provence but would love to experience the light dancing off the old buildings.St Remy and Le Petite Bijou sound like the perfect place for southern France ambiance..Thank you for your wonderful offer.
Vicki, your kindness shines through with this lovely prize. Thank you. I, along with many others adore Provence and in particular St Remy. Receiving your blogs on a damp day in November lights up the day with thoughts I have of blue skies, warm sun and a feeling of happiness from visiting St Remy previously. It would be a dream for all your subscribers!!!
Your blog is beautiful!!
I have always loved reading your blog, and following you on instagram. It was an article you published about 3 years ago that for me, a 38 year old mom, helped change my mind. The article was about letting your hair go grey. After being totally inspired by that article ( and I shred it tons!!) I did it… no more 2 hour long, every 5 week hair apt. Now I get stopped almost every day and complemented on my hair. I have olive toned skin and sliver hair with wisps of black that ( according to many) is very envious. I have saved a ton of $$$ ( cue smiling hubby) and have found a new confidence in myself. My my hair apt are more about keeping the style fresh and ” cute” and dressing to complement. Thanks again!!! PS I would love to show off my hair in France!! C’est bonne!!
I’ve dreamed of France since I was a little girl reading about Madeline. Oui, s’il vous plait!
Vicki,
I love your blog…it keeps me connected to Provence and Paris! Thanks so much for sharing your experiences and perspective on travel, fashion and everything in between! How fabulous it would be to spend a week at Le Petit Bijou in St. Remy! I love the quiet elegance of St. Remy, the amazing markets, etc. It is the best of Provence!
Wow, Vicki! St Rémy is my second most favourite place in Provence! It would be Number 1 if it had the sea as well as all its other wonderful attributes such as the charming buildings, fabulous markets and great cafés and restaurants… Your house looks wonderful, too – full of French essence…
Seasonal wishes to you and all your followers. x
Your blog is lovely!!
Bonjour Vicki,
I have been a subscriber for some time now, as that is how I was notified of the contest.
I enjoy your golden glimpses into all things French and lovely.
Merci, Andrea (PGH)
BEST CONTEST EVER!?
What a great giveaway St, Remy would be a great gift to my husband, it’s one of his favorite locations in France.
“Well, Vicki said…” is part of my daily report! Have followed enthusiastically for years…you are my oh-so-stylish friend who keeps me smiling.
Having ‘known’ you for so many years now Vicki, first through your books, then here almost daily on such an inspiring and helpful blog, the only thing missing has been meeting you in person. I would adore a stay in Le Petit Bijou, and perhaps a chance to meet in person whilst there! Thank you for the chance to see exquisite St. Remy, and all you did to make this little house so very special. I know it must be beautiful.
Vicki, what a marvelous gift indeed! I have long dreamed of a week at Le Petit Bijou… I’d love to go with my dear husband, but also wouldn’t mind a week of time with my dearest, best friend. You are the best!
What a great giveaway, St. Remy would be a great gift to my husband, it’s one of his favorite locations in France.
What a wonderful holiday gift to share a place you love. I have visited Paris once and only have the warmest memories of it. My husband knows of my desire to return and to explore Provence. This would be the magic to make it all happen! Thank you and Joyeux Noël!
Bonjour – it would be a dream come true to stay at Petit Binou – Merci xx
This would be a dream come true as I’ve never been to Europe, let alone France, my favorite place. I love all things French.
So sweet an opportunity!! Didn’t make it to St Remi on my first trip to France last year but looks like a bucket list place to visit.. love seeing your posts in my inbox!
Hi, Vicki. I was lucky enough to visit St. Remy, just once and for just a few hours but it was on market day and I was completely enchanted! I can’t think of anything better than spending an entire week there. Thanks for the opportunity
Hi,
My wife and I have been to St Remy previously and loved it.
Would be terrific if we could go back again with winning the prize.
Dale.
Time at Le Petite Bijou would be such a special way to celebrate several family milestones. I live on the Coast of Maine, which has it’s own charm, but am a life-long francophile and have been dusting off my francais. With best holiday wishes to you and your family.
Even though I live in France I absolutely love Provence and haven’t been down to the south of France for a couple of years. What a lovely prize you are giving away. xx
Would love to be able to visit Provence.
Moi, J’adore la belle France comme vous!
Vicki,
A gorgeous prize… I will live in hope. x
What a lovely opportunity. I love your posts on France and especially Provence. Have a wonderful holiday and prosperous New Year.
Love the blog. Your mix of graphics and text is very well done. Nice voice, great commentary.
St. Remy de Provence is my favourite town in France. I try & visit every year & I was there in October 2016. I have also spent Christmas the in 2014 & it was a lovely experience. Different to Ireland where I live but lovely to see blue skies in December.
Winning this prize would be wonderful. Carina
So generous and kind! This would be a dream. I rarely enter giveaways, but this is beyond! <3
My husband and I spent two weeks in France this summer (Dijon and Paris) for our 10th anniversary. We’re determined not to let another 10 years go by before getting back to France. We spent time in Aix en Provence during our honeymoon and would love the opportunity to get back there sooner rather than later! Thanks for this chance!
Nietzsche said: No hope but no despair.
But then, with this opportunity, maybe there is reason to hope!
Ce voyage serait mon rêve devenu réalité!
We love St. Remy, of course, and what a great Giveaway. Here’s hoping….!
Amazing opportunity!
You are, as expressed by your charming blog, a wonderful example of living your dream. Among many things, I teach at NYU. When my students ask for advice, I always tell them to find your passion and live it.
Judy
Dear Vicki,
Thanks for the opportunity, I would absolutely love to visit St Remy de Provence with my husband and stay in your beautiful house… Will keep my fingers & toes crossed until the 19th… :)
What an amazing opportunity and a dream come true! Thank you!
A week in Provence would be a fantasy come true!! I’ll start packing and hope to see you there!!
Pick me! Pick me!
Thank YOU, Vicki! What a generous and lovely giveaway! I’m afraid that your Black Friday Sales ideas proved a bit too irresistible, and I spent a bit more than I probably should have of our 2017 travel budget on wrap coats! ;) But if we WON a stay, well, then we’d have to travel to France…and probably stay an extra week or two in the New Year. Your “Jewel Box” looks like exactly that. Perfection! Have very happy Holidays with your wonderful family!
How wonderful! And how generous. Your blog is one of the few I subscribe to, I have to be selective otherwise I wouldn’t get anything done all day long. I have incorporated many of the “Top 10 French Wardrobe Essentials” you sent when I first subscribed in hopes that I would look effortlessly elegant (still trying). I visited St.-Remy-de-Provence just once to go to the weekly market but didn’t have enough time to explore the village, so I would LOVE to return….and for a WEEK! Heaven in Provence. Fingers crossed and I can pack a suitcase in no time flat. Thank you!
What a generous offer, and what a beautiful part of the world to spend a week in. Wishing you, your family and friends a wonderful Christmas and spectacular 2017!
This gift would be wonderful after an exhausting year of work with no vacation. Thank you Vicki! Good luck to all!
What a generous prize! Who won’t want to go to Provence!
Love your posts and love this giveaway! Thanks:)
Vicki,
Summer 2017 will be my fourth time staying at Le Petit Bijou. I have taken my three daughters in the past and this year my Husband will be joining me! I I Love Love Love This Magnificent Treasure you have created for All of us to Enjoy. It is truly my Favorite place to visit and I hope that going forward I will be able each year to enjoy the Beauty of this Le Petit Bijou and St Remy! A Big Hug to you, David and Christaine for All you do in making my stay Wonderful. And to you, Vicki may I say you are Simply FABULOUS! ❤️
How generous of your Vicki and what a wonderful memory for someone. Here’s hoping!!
What a wonderful give-away. Merci d’avance for your generous gift to some lucky person!
I always love to read your posts which take me right back to time spent in Provence. It is my most favourite place in the world and I would so love to return.
What a generous act of kindness. I would love a trip to St. Remy!
It is always a pleasure to read your perspective on all topics and how simple and to the point it is…very much like French fashion…timeless and elegant. I love the opportunity to win a week in St. Remy.
Could not think of anything more wonderful than a week in St Remy in your beautiful Petit Bijou, I have friends who have stayed there and am dying to go. Fingers and toes crossed, what a wonderful gesture!
Oh what a dream! I would love to spend a week in Provence with my mother – exploring and working on our novel together. Wishing you a very happy holiday season!
Through my love of France and my Obsession of Provance, I found you on Pintrest and I’ve followed you ever since.
My Dream would be fulfilled with everything you have described in your blogs to actually experience in person thank you for this generous offer
Happy Holidays
What a beautiful gesture..thank you.
Would be a dream come true.
A week in Provence would be a dream come true!!!!!
Yes, yes, yes to Provence. What a treat!
What a generous idea. We are coming up on a milestone anniversary. My husband just asked me this weekend what I’d like to do to celebrate. This would be dream. Thank you for the opportunity to dream BIG.
Tres magnifique! Please enter us for traveling to Provence, Paula in Provence – it has a ring to it! Thank you Vicki for bringing us beauty and culture from home and abroad – love this blog!
I love Provence…. St.Remy is such a gorgeous place. The atmosphere is so romantic. A week holiday with my new love… That would be a dream come true. Thank you for the opportunity Vicky!
Provence is truly magical and your offer is such a wonderful holiday treat.
There’s nothing better than sharing what we live with others.
Thank you for sharing yourself through your blog. I look forward to it. It’s a bright spot each day.
Wishing you, your family, and all your readers a very healthy and joyous holiday season.
I love everything French from the Alps, Fashion and Fromage to the beautiful stylish buildings, the air of beauty of the fashionable class. I adore your website, well done it is beautiful.
Merci…a fairytale come true gift
Vicki what a wonderful present this would be this Christmas! Love your blog – have been following you for several years.
Love your website and I live in France vicariously through it!
St Remy would be a dream. Happy Holidays to everyone. May your Christmas dreams come true.
Dear Vicki,
It would be a dream come true to visit your magical corner of the paradise, such a lovely prize.
I have been a long time follower and this generous give away prompted me to comment :-)
Thank you for taking time to put together such beautiful and informative posts.
with kindest regards,
Aneta
It would be a dream to discover this Petit Bijou of yours. Your taste is impeccable. As a photographer on film, the tones and all the details would be amazing to photograph. Thank you for considering me as a humble host on your home.
What a wonderful dream, a very generous giveaway and an incredible opportunity!!!
Love following your blog Vicki. What a generous offer to visit St. Remy with all your special touches and reccomendations. Happy Christmas to you and your family!
A week in Provence/St. Remy would be a wonderful treat. The people, the shops, the food, and the wonderful photo opportunities. I am crossing my fingers for the opportunity.
Provence would be my dream come true! My husband is from Quebec and has never had the chance to see France. I’d love to be able to take him! Your descriptions of St. Remy have made me want to consider relocating! xox
I love your post and would love to travel to La Provence!!!!
Vicki,
I am not sure if my comment is being received… last try… would dearly love to win. x
Hey Vicki……Am I eligible, despite already being generally lucky and fortunate in life? Just for the public record?……my first and only trip to St. Remy was marred (to say the very least) by a telephone call which revealed that a woman I’d known in gradskool had taken advantage of my absence to move into my house (yup…she was there the entire time I was gone) and open-up her volley of remarkably vicious and prolonged attacks. Suffice it to say that, after a year of my having to go through the courts, she finally ended up on 27 outstanding Federal warrants. She was a truly Varsity League stalker…..and she began with that telephone message, which I listened to as I sat in a cafe opposite Saint-Martin…..where, for obvous reasons,I couldn’t do much about the domestic situation 3000miles away. So, I think that I need to see St. Remy again, with a less preoccupied and worried mind.
In addition?….the first thing I did post-divorce was (predictably enough and as is common) think “What the hell am I going to do with this big, 220 year old house?”. The fifth or so thing I did (after the gnashing-of-teeth, the incessant wailing, and the destruction of at least one portrait in this house) was to think “Easy….it was renovated twelve years ago precisely so that it could be a B&B. It’s about to become one once again. Problem Solved.”
So, I can leave anytime I want, nowadays….and if I rent out the bedroom reserved for me and the dogs, I can even make money by absenting myself for a week (odd to consider that the most productive thing I can do to increase my guests’ pleasure is to just get out of town).
So, I may be the only applicant for the prize who’d actually make money from winning it. Odd, but true (as long as I don’t bother tallying-in teeny expenses such as an international air flight).
In any case, whoever wins is in for a real treat….I’ve seen the photographs of Le Petit Bijou.
Thanks as ever,
David Terry
J’aime la Provence and je suis une etudiante de tout chose Francais. Mon favorire et St Remy and Isle sur la Sorgue and Arles dans le sud de France. Mon amour de tous francais commence il y a 40 annes et mes ecrivants sont mauvais maintenant.
J’aime votre blog et votre amour de la France.
What a generous and kind gesture. It brings such excitement to the end of the year. Thanks for the thoughtfulness. Del
Boy, does that look wonderful. I’m at the moment taking care of my elderly father who has dementia. My mother had emergency surgery for a reputed colon. She is hospitalized and hopeful will be home before Christmas. I’m exhausted and would love to win this trip…..
Love your blog and this generous opportunity to revisit Provence, a place of very fond memories where I studied 40 years ago! Merci et bonnes fêtes !
To thank us, your readers, for our company and friendship this year, by offering to share your own passion for France yet again, is a most generous and considerate gesture on your part: to win this week in Provence some lucky person will have a chance to further experience your enriching spirit and genuine warmth, ever apparent throughout your web site! How wonderful to dream….
I have followed you and been inspired and sustained by you. I am the girl who had a broken engagement a few years ago, right before Christmas and that stopped me from being able to move to London. I commented on your blog then and you replied with kind, careful words that encouraged me. I kept getting up each day and learned to see beauty in each day – no matter what. You inspire so many of us ways you will never know. Thank you. I have been to England but never Provence and would love to visit. Thank you for the opportunity to enter for such a generous gift.
Merci beaucoup Vicky! That is such a nice place! I would love to spend a week with my love in such a romantic place…
How delightful of you to do this! I’ll hope for a chance. Thank you!
J’adore St. Remy, and j’adore your blog, and j’adore your books !
As a long time reader, I would be THRILLED 😁 to stay ar your lovely home for a week!
I’m already dreaming about the beautiful countryside of Provence!
S’il vous plait! S’il vous plait! s’il vous plait!
I’ve long had a trip to Provence on my bucket list. After reading your books and blog, Provence has risen to the top of that list. What a wonderful give away this is!
This trip would be a blessing and an inspiration beyond imagination!
What a lovely Christmas gift this would be this year! Wishing you and your family a veryy Merry Christmas! Love reading your articles
I found you, your books and this blob, site, etc. years ago and truly felt like I found something magical. I went to Provence in 1999 and it’s been my favorite place (and password to all things) since. I have been eying this magical place online for years and just have not been able to pull the trigger. I have just had back surgery a week after turning 50 if that isn’t adding insult to injury! HAHA. I am not saying this for sympathy but it’s truly where I am in my life. I have done a lot of reflecting during and since my order and I could truly use that magical place to get myself back emotionally and mentally again. It was life changing in 1999 and I expect it would be again.
P.S. I took a picture similar to the one above with the book outside a fabulous little boutique !
A generous kindness for the season! I love your blog and always find inspiration and positivity in abundance which is a welcome rarity it seems these days. Thank you for the opportunity to enter – best wishes to your and yours in the season of giving.
I share your passion fro France! I haven’t been to St. Remy since November 11, 2005! I remember the date because we watched the Remembrance Day ceremonies there. How lovely it would be to re-visit Provence!
What a wonderful Christmas gift that would be! A week in Provence is a dream. Thank you for your beautiful blog.
Your postings are always so inviting, makes me want to travel to France and beyond even more. Next year is a special birthday and anniversary, winning a stay at Le Petit Bijou would be the perfect gift.
Hope you enjoy a wonderful Christmas and New Year.
Thank you, thank you for your lovely blog and website! I love that you focus on women of all ages and sizes, and focus on the loveliness that’s within and around us all. Merry Christmas to you!
So pleased to have found you today – your words and pictures feed my dreams of another visit to Provence, and bring many happy memories of wonderful holidays. Fingers crossed!
Love Provence – we have been there a few times. it would be so exciting to win!
Please give me an excuse to return to Provence and its wonderful markets!
I am a subscriber (both email and via Bloglovin’), and visiting France has been a life-long goal. Thank you so much for offering this giveaway!
I love everything French and would be ecstatic about winning a week in Provence!
I have always wanted to go, it sounds lovely.
I’ve been reading your blog for years and even my granddaughter in college loves all your French fashion advice! Even though my dad was of French parents I have never been and would love this amazing travel gift!
It’s always a pleasure reading your posts. Thank you for the opportunity to visit Provence as well.
A week in France!! Ill need a whole new wardrobe!
My fervent wish would be to take my husband to Provence to paint! We’ve not visited beyond Paris.
This is so generous of you to offer, Vicki. Travel is the greatest gift. I find it always expands our minds and hearts, and shows us again what we all have in common — our innate goodness. Visiting the beautiful village of St. Remy and France would be a dream come true. Best of luck to everyone!
How wonderful would a week at your lovely place be! We have traveled with our children once before to France, in the Perigord region. It was an unforgettable journey.
Happy holidays Vicky, to tou and your family!

Oh what a delightful prize! My boyfriend and I visited Paris for the first time last Spring for 4 days,,, sadly he was very sick and ended up in the care of a Dr. Which meant we missed our first French adventure. Perhaps we will get to come back for a do-over! Thank you again for such an inspiring blog, website and sharing your insight into all the treasures, adventures and delights to be experienced.

Dearest Vicki,
We absolutely loved our week in Le Petit Bijou two years ago. It is even more perfect than it looks online! The village of St. Rémy is indescribably gorgeous. We felt so welcomed and appreciated in the shops and restaurants. We bought several lovely Christmas ornaments while there that are now front and center on our tree, reminding us in this beautiful season of our special time there. What a blessing it would be to win a week to relive that very special time. How generous you are, Vicki. Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family.
Love this village. Love this blog!

Thank you for sharing your gift of perspective to beauty……your insight has been an inspiration and provides a calm for me. I will be visiting seven battle fields in France in 2017 or 2018 to honor my grandfather who fought in WWI in 1918. He was in seven battles from June 1- Oct 27, Ainse Defensive, Chateau-Thierry Sector, Champagne-Marne (Rock of the Marne), Ainse-Marne Offensive, Vessel Sector, St. Michael, and Meuse-Argonne (where he was severely injured and lied in a muddy ditch for several days thinking he was going to die). St, Remy will be my closure to the trip….as I feel from your posts it will offer me calm, peace and a quiet beauty.
Vicki:
I would love to win a free week in France. I love your blog, especially how you have recently been using pictures of yourself. I commend you for stepping out of your comfort zone. I hope you have the best holiday season with your family and friends. Thanks, Kate
What a lovely and generous offer. I remember well when you were getting Le Petit Bijou ready, the renovating, the decorating, following with great interest. Unlikely to ever be within my budget, the opportunity to have a chance at a whole week there is too irresistible so here’s my comment…
I love this site of yours, your blog, and most of all your way if thinking. You’ve given me so many wonderful and thought-provoking insights, on such a range of subjects. The way I approach dress, hair, make-up has all changed since reading your blog, but more than that, how I approach life.
My favourite series has been “Getting to Know You Better” – such a lovely idea, and always a wonderful read.
I am grateful for this space you’ve created and your wonderful posts, delivered every day, so thanks are to you, and to your team!
This would be a wonderful week, thank you for the opportunity to enter.
I don’t usually enter these competitions, but this is one I couldn’t resist. Fingers crossed I will be enjoying the sites of Provence next year :)
Vicki Archer is exactly the blog I’ve searched for! I love the fashion, the lifestyle and the beauty articles. As a huge consumer of quality Everything, I am grateful and excited to be part of this whole scene.
Such a beautiful place. It would be a wish and dream come true!
What a lovely gesture, the world needs more kindness and you certainly are raising the bar. Blessings to you and everyone who entered and is dreaming of winning. Thank you.
Dreaming of Provence here in South Alabama. Y’all don’t know how much I would love to make Provence my new favorite place to visit. My overseas travel has been limited and what a Christmas Blessing this would be to win. If not the winner, I surely will continue going there with you in your dreamy words and picture perfect photos, Vicki.
Please❣️
What a wonderful dream trip to your fabulous Petite Bejou. Our tastes are very much the same so I’ve very much enjoyed the pictures of the house. Thanks for offering such a generous gift at this time of year. Joyeux Noel!!

I’m thrilled to be able to enter for a Week in St. Remy. It does look heavenly. I’ve only been to Provence with my mother on special holidays years back . She has passed this year but I have my memories. Whom ever wins your generous gifting of a week stay will surely have great memories to create. Thank you for this marvelous site . Coffee , glasses and I’m going to settle in and read. I’m @elesium on IG and we’ve chatted before. Wishing you a marvelous week. Thank you for this great Christmas present that someone can place under the tree to share with a loved one. Warm regards, Debora
How wonderful and generous of you! I lived in France for several years and would love to return. Thank you so much!
A dream for sure, thank you for a chance Vicki. Love you blog♥️🍷♥️

What a privilege it would be. A dream come true.
Hello Vicki- I, too, am blessed with time in London and Provence several stays a year so your blog is especially helpful. The best part of your work is that it provides a point of connection with beauty and kindness. Thank you!
Merry Christmas and Love to France!💝💝💝
Vicki – your blog always transports me to the magical South of France…..every post….without fail.

What a lovely Christmas present a trip to Provence would be. Fabulous blog and it always makes me want to go anywhere in France. Thanks
What a generous giveaway Vicki. It would be a dream to stay in your beautiful Le Petit Bijou, but it wouldn’t be 100% perfect unless I had to the opportunity to meet you in person.
Have a great week ahead. Cheers from a cold California this morning! xx
I am a French teacher and a supporter of many other people’s dreams and goals with French language and culture, but in all these years I haven’t been back to France going on 10 years. It is at times a little embarrassing! A week in Provence for me would be amazing!
What a lovely, gracious, and inspirational offer….just like your blog which is a joy to open each day!
I would love to visit Saint Rémy de Provence “Le Petit Bijou” it would be a dream come true. Thanks in advance.
I’ve never been to France! What a wonderful gift that would be! Love your blog and your view of your beautiful country.
What a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the beauty that is France. Your blog is like a breath of fresh air each time I receive it. Thank you and please continue to inspire us all!
Dear Vicki,
Thank you for offering such a great opportunity to visit such a lovely area I have only dreamed of visiting! I would peruse the town, take in the atmosphere as well as the sights and maybe squeeze in some antiques! The countryside alone would be a magnificent gift to see! I am going to say a prayer and keep my fingers crossed as well! Enjoy your week! Smiles
What a treat this would be!
What a generous and spectacular gift to your readers (friends) Vicki. Have hollowed you for many years and it would be amazing to win this stay at Le petit bijou.
Good luck to all….fingers crossed 💗
What a wonderful prize ! Now THAT would be the best 60 th birthday pres . A friend and I keep saying ” One day we will get to Le Petit Bijou ” , so we are holding thumbs .
I would love to visit Le Petit Bijou, thanks for the great gift.
I would love to win a week in your St Remy home as I am planning a trip to Provence in 2018 with a friend. I have read that St.Remy has a lot of antiques and that there are brocante fairs. It sounds like an enchanting village.
I have been following you for many years. Thank you for this generous offer.
Bonjour! Over two decades ago, I had the opportunity to visit St. Remy for a day. Unfortunately, I spent most of the time trying to find my way out of the traffic circle. I would LOVE the opportunity to go back and get it right on the first try! On a serious note, thank you for the inspiration. My 24 year old daughter is smitten, too. Merci!
Hi Vicki,
It was due to your blog that I was able to persuade my wife to take a holiday in France for the first time in ten years! We had a great time staying in a Gite up a mountain near Clermont and to win a stay in Le Petit Bijou would be simply wonderful. Fingers crossed.
Richardx
Vicki..Your blog always transports me to another world..thank you for brightening those little moments of my day! How wonderful it would be to be physically transported to France! Choisis-moi s’il te plait!
Yes!!! I would love to be entered into the contest to win a week in Provence. Your guest cottage looks delightful! I have been an avid reader and fan of the blog. Have a blessed Holiday Season.
Wow, would this be fabulous! Thanks, Vicki!
I would love to spend a week in Provence. Your blog is such a pleasure to read, and has sustained me throughout the months since I lost my husband suddenly. You inspire me to search for my style, even at my age of 56. Thank you.
Exciting! I do follow you and I am a subscriber… or, so I thought. When I attempt to double check my subscription (via email) the format says I am UNsubscribed and must re-enter of my own free will. YES, of my own free will, but computer will not accept. hmmm ?? Can you be sure my email is back on? Thanks. Sure would appreciate being enrolled in this fantastic journey!
All doni Shari.. just click on the verification email when you receive it xv
What an amazing opportunity! Thank you!
It will be a dream come true to say the least! I want to thank Vicki whose blog (the only one) I read daily and always look forward to it. What a generous gift for us indeed. Thank you so much!
I’m visualizing the food markets as I write, I can just about smell the tomatoes and the freshly baked bread. Man I hope I win!!
Thanks for this opportunity to win a trip of a life-time! <3
There is no other place quite like France ! I look forward to your posts to bring back memories of my beloved Paris! I was a French major in College and have loved everything about France for almost my whole life! I was heartbroken last year when I was scheduled to attend the UN Climate Change Conference (COP21) in Paris, but my plans had to be cancelled due to the security issues. I worked from home for those two weeks – getting up at 2 am to be on Paris time and video conferencing with my colleagues and the delegates to complete my work on the Agreement. I cried when I saw the Eiffel Tower all light up in its glory to celebrate the signing ! Oh, Paris! my dear, charming, wonderful Paris ! Your blog posts had kept me informed as to what I was going to pack, and what I was going to eat, and what I was going to see ! Your readers live such a grand vicarious life through your site ! MERCI !
Bonjour !! It’s been fifteen years since I last visited Provence and adored it. Your village is a stand out in the string of lovely places I saw. I adore reading your blog and dreaming of another visit.
Joyeux Noel ! Kathleen
Le Petite Bijoux is beautiful, I’d love to have a chance to explore Provence from there. Merci!!
Love this little carrot that you’re dangling….
Dearest Vicki,
Thank you for another year of inspiration, humor, beauty, and joy! What a generous and “so you!” gift to give your readers. Thank you!
Warmest wishes for a Merry Christmas and Peaceful and Joyous New Year!
Mary in Napa Valley
Saint Remy de provence is my favorite small town in France. And staying at Le Petit Bijou for a week would be a dream come true!
Thank you for this wonderful opportunity.
Take me away to Provence… A girl can dream!
You’re posts always make me smile as I sit here at my desk each morning. Thank you for taking me out from under the fluorescent lights for a moment.
J’aime la France
Incroyable ! A week in St.Remy at Le Bijou is what I am visualizing right now !! Thank you for offering your readers such a wonderful Opportunity and Gift. I will see it in my dreams and hope for the chance. I am wishing myself lots of luck . Patricia
to tell the thruth ….I would like to be the jewel in your box.
Le Petit Bijou looks like the perfect place to stay while exploring charming St. Remy, nice of you to share with others.
Have enjoyed reading your blog for years – Happy Holidays!
Wow, this would be a trip of a lifetime! I’ve been to Provence once but dream of going back. Thank you for this opportunity!
I would adore staying at Le Petit Bijoux, it would be amazing to win
Hi Vicki
I just wrote a little comment for the contest, but it says that my comment is awaiting moderation. Not sure what that means and I definitely don’t want to miss my opportunity at the contest.
What a nice surprise this would be! St. Remy sounds like a lovely village with a wonderful location.
Dear Vicki ~
I just returned from an annual Christmas shopping trip with three of my dearest girlfriends. During our conversations over lunch, dinner and many cocktails I quoted you endlessly. Thank you for sharing in what is a very special weekend for me.
xo,
Holly
A week at Le Petit Bijou–what a wonderful treat and something to dream about! Thank you for such a generous gift!
Ah, sounds like a dream! I love all things french including your site :-)
Your posts brighten up every day for me. Being a GP in central London is a privilege but can also be very tiring and stressful. I so enjoy reading what you have to say whilst having a break between patients with my cup of coffee ! I would so love to go and stay in wonderful St Remy x
Dear Vicki,
I so enjoy your posts and your tips for style essentials and words of wisdom. The lovely photos are so inspiring. Really just devoured your week in Venice and the beautiful pictures taken by your niece. And love St.Remy so crossing my fingers!
We learned about you from dear Ellie, and have been devoted since. Le Petit Bijou is a jewel box and a dream to discover one day. Joyeux Noel
A week in Provence! What a lovely dream come true.
Vicki
I enjoy your take on all things French, as well as so many other topics. I especially enjoy your beauty suggestions. A week in Provence would be the cherry on the top of the Sundae
What a wonderful location! Would be the perfect place to celebrate our 25th Anniversary this year. 😊
Dear Vicki,
Thanks so much for this opportunity to win a free stay. I found you a few years ago and love my daily visits enjoying your words and images! A few vacations and business trips to Paris has made me a lover of this magical city and now would love to visit all of France! Wishing a win! Lol…..cheers, Connie
What an exciting post this morning, I’ll be daydreaming for weeks about staying in your cottage in St. Remy! My last (& only) trip to Paris was in the early 70’s when I visited a girlfriend at the American College in Paris. I was 19 and had $20 in spending money and a suitcase filled with peanut butter, Hershey bars, Mexican peasant blouses and American rock albums to sell to all the students. What a dream to return now and enjoy it with a few more dollars in my pocket for the flea markets and to enjoy the countryside. Thanks for your wonderful posts and a chance to dream of returning to France!!!
As a fan of your blog & a practicing Interior Designer, I followed your blog as you lovingly restored Le Petite Bijoux…… Every item you selected was perfection! What fun it would be to actually see the completed project in person!
Hi Vicki, I tried several years ago to book and I waited too late!! Maybe now I may not be toooooo late! So enjoy reading your posts and hope.to be back in Provence soon! Enjoy your blog so much!
A holiday in Provence would be a dream, how lovely of you to want to share it with us. Thanks.
A week in your gorgeous, lovingly outfitted apartment in St. Remy would be a unbelievable treat! Thanks for being so kind to your readers to offer this chance.
To live in Provence is my DREAM, DESIRE and KNOW IT FOR SURE!! I’ve been to Paris which I LOVE, however I’ve not actually been to Provence…my heart jumps, my body tingles and I get as excited as a child at Christmas about to open a present when I see or hear anything about it!! Thanks so much for offering this!
You take me to France everyday! THANK YOU!!
I agree! Every morning you brighten my day! Have loved reading the 1001 plus comments your readers have responded to this gift! Thank you Vicki I wish you a beautiful Xmas and a wonderful 2017!
What a beautiful place and location!
Simply gorgeous!
This would be a dream come true! I have never been to France but know I would LOVE everything about it! I enjoy your blog so much and enjoy reading everything I can about France. Merci beaucoup!
I have been a subscriber for a long time.
I never imagined that I could win something for reading your beautiful blog!
Here’s hoping I do! Provence looks lovely and so do your rooms.
Thanks!
That will be exciting for whoever wins! For now I’m inspired to paint my version of the picture posted. Thanks
What a generous gift to one of your readers! I would love a chance to visit St. Remy and stay at Le Petit Bijou! In 2005, I was on a tour of France with girlfriends! On the 4th day of the tour I fell at the post office in Bayeux. I spent the next 2 weeks at the American Hospital in Paris recuperating from elbow surgery. I was so sorry to miss the rest of my tour traveling through Provence and ending in Nice. Thank you for a chance at this wonderful opportunity!
Vicki, Your blog is delightful, informative and inspiration. I look forward to hearing from you each day. A trip to St Remy would be exciting. When visiting Provence in 2007, life was magic
Dear Vicki,
What a wonderful opportunity! I so enjoy your posts in France and London. Thank you!
Christine
What a generous giveaway! I would so love to visit Provence. I also really enjoy your blog. I feel I may be at the younger end of your readers, but your posts are universal in their appeal. And I can only aspire to live a life like yours- in London and Provence!
Thank you!!
A wonderful blog, which I always look forward to reading. A fabulous prize in a stunnng location. Thank you so much for the exciting opportunity!
I’m thrilled to enter for a chance to win a dream come true. I’ve enjoyed your daily and weekly newsletters for a few years now, inspiring and beautiful!
I love getting your emails. They have inspired me to try many different things whether it is with décor or fashion. Merci beaucoup!
Thirty two years ago my husband and I spent our honeymoon in France but did not make it to Provence. On Friday we learned that my cancer has returned and, if we are to see Provence, it must be soon before treatments exhaust my energy and stamina. A week at your charming place would give us a chance for romance and serenity in the midst of a very challenging time.
Your blog inspires and encourages me to live well and share happiness with my family and friends.
Dear Vicki, Provence has always been a dream destination for me!
I love your blog and look forward to every post in my email box. What a lovely generous gift The opportunity would be indescribable. May you and your family have a beautiful Christmas.
I love getting your emails. You have inspired me to try many different ideas whether it is in décor or fashion. Merci beaucoup!

Hi Vicki,
Warm wishes from Austin, Texas! I must say that I cannot think of anything more lovely than to have the chance to stay in La Petit Bijou. How fabulous of you to share your special place with your readers. I have loved your books and am continually inspired on both vickiarcher.com and your other platforms. Thank you so much for sharing your life and your gorgeous point of view with us all!
Vicki,
You are the first blog I read every morning! Love you, love France, love decorating and love those pixie pants from J. Crew! I look forward to what you have in store for us in 2017! Also, I just met Audrey from French Vintage Home and she had the nicest words to say about you and your husband. Anissa
I haven’t been to St Rémy since my grad school days in Avignon. I wish I were there now with a vin chaud at the marché de Nöel!
I have followed your blog for several years and enjoyed your journey of France.
I would love to visit St. Remy! It’s been too many years since I’ve been in the south of France. Thank you for this giveaway!
I can’t think of a better place to be than Provence. I was there in 1982 and although I have traveled extensively since then (I was in Paris and Normandy in October) I have not been back to Provence. I love your emails and look at them to be taken back to my favorite country.
Thank you, Vicki. Through your blog I’ve learned so many wonderful things about fashion, beauty, wellness and travel. The exquisite photos/ drawings and vivid writing bring much daily delight in what’s mostly noise on the internet. You’re a gem for sharing your gifts with the rest of us.
Hi Vicki, such a thrill to think about winning?

Vicki, I love reading your blog and keeping up with the current fashions. You have a great eye for quality and style.
I love your blog and reading about all things Provence. I don’t even have a passport….yet. This would be the perfect excuse to obtain one!! Fingers crossed!!
Hello from NZ Vicki. I’ve been an avid follower of yours for years and spent some time in Provence a year ago but only went to St Remy briefly. Just adored it and the area, so would just love to able to revisit sometime. Thankyou for the offer, fingers crossed!
Hello Vicki – SVP could you put me into the hat ? I have a great need to see St. Remy and its wonderful surroundings.
I have been receiving your blog twice weekly for five years now and love the fantastic photographs that greet me in the morning followed by the advise on lifestyle and fashion. I love the way you manage to convey your message in so few words, and let the pictures speak for themselves. Yes I am very visually aware and am in my bliss when surrounded by beauty indoors, outdoors and certain people.
Happy Christmas to you and your family wherever you are,
Anne
To return to France and actually spend a week living in a beautifully restored home in Provence would be a dream come true. Thanks for taking me there every time I read your blog. Dorothy

Dear Vicki, I am in the process of finishing chemotherapy and my wish is to have a trip to France with my daughter once I have recovered. My daughter has never been across the pond ( we live in Canada) and I would love to introduce her to Provence.
Thank you for your daily inspiring posts which I look forward to reading every day. Blessings to you and your family this Christmas and for the New Year ahead.
Hi Vicki!
my husband and I stayed at your place this last summer!Its such a beautiful place as really enjoyed it!it was so wonderful being able to walk right to the village.We would certainly live to come stay again!The lucky winner will be blessed!
I thoroughly love your blog and website, but I adore the photos! A visit to St. Remy would be a dream come true!
Mon Dieu….my heart just skipped a beat! I’ve been immersed in researching my french heritage and have dreamed of visiting southern France to actually walk the ground of my ancestors. Winning a trip to Provence would make my dream come true! Doigts croisés!!!!
Mon rêve. To go to France. St Remy de Provence et le Petit Bijou. Sigh.
My first trip to France was this year! We had 4 days in Paris. We had a wonderful apartment that overlooked the Seine. My husband and I totally fell in love and can’t wait to get back. We know that we only “dipped our toe” in all things French. There are so many other areas to explore. Provence is definitely on the list. Would love to stay in this charming town. Le Petit Bijou looks like perfection.
Greetings from Nova Scotia Canada Vicki
Thank your your kind opportunity to be selected as the happy soul who will visit and be at home in your wonderful home in Provence. Your website always offers me such happiness as I remember my experiences of being in France. Thank you for the vision Vicki! Warm regards
Marsha

Bonsoir Vicki ~ what a fine idea !! I would love to stay in your warm and welcoming location in Saint-Rémy, discover the wednesday market to fill my basket with all the delicious fruits, vegetables, huiles d´olives, fromages … catch some fragrant flowers and a bottle of velvety vin rouge… and – if you would like it – prepare for us an apéro provencal… !! Let´s do it :-)) Grosses bises, Yvi

We readers should be thanking you for all your generous sharing of knowledge on fashion and beauty – you are my go to bible if there is anything I need to know! And it all just arrives on my iPad each day, with a beautiful image as well. Even the image today is proof that much time and effort goes into everything you post to ensure it is the very best.

In the corner of the heart, lies secret wishes. FRANCE only a dream. To actually visit, there are no words. Your posts take us there, so grateful.
Provence……Heaven on Earth! I shall start planning my wardrobe…. of course the “French Essentials.” With all your beauty and fashion advice, I shall hope to blend in with the Provencal women. Just another something to wish for in the The Year! Vicki, your blog is such fun!

My Daily Click is the only email i truely look forward to reading each day. The gift of visual beauty in all its manifesting joys is something i believe our societies (mental health) need more of . I know it to be a positive and harmonising influence that i can hold for my family and my relationship work with couple clients.
Thank you for offering this blessing to us readers!
With appreciation,
Janie.
I adore France, but despite having visited many times I really don’t know Provence, so would love the chance to stay here and explore. Your blog is great as well!
Wow what a gift!!!!
Wow what a wonderful gift!!!!
Vicki – it would be a truly wonderful way to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary! I entered your previous draw without success – maybe it will be second time lucky……..
Thank you for your generous gesture!
I look forward to and always find a moment to read your posts. You share wonderful insight on fashion and skin care and being a woman. I don’t always have time to read all my emails but I always find time to read your posts!
Hi Viki
I live way down here in little New Zealand and my husband try to get to Europe as often as we can, a trip every three years if we are lucky! France is our favourite favourite place or should I say Paris.
We haven’t ventured much further afield and this sounds just the most amazing experience to visit Provence. You are my inspiration I so look forward everyday reading your most interesting blogs you are one AMAZING lady please keep writing them.
I must say I take note of all your recommendations and have often purchased a piece of clothing or skin care product not an easy process as lots of places don’t ship to New Zealand!!
I would so love to win this!
How exciting! What a great contest and PRIZE! I’ve been to Provence, once, and it is amazing. Fingers crossed that I WIN!
I have subscribed and unsubscribe from blogs over the last several years but have always enjoyed French Essence! We are close in age so love your fashion and makeup tips and of course all things French. You start your blogs with such clever photos!!
Hi Vicki, I would love to win this for Sande with the hopes that the beauty of Provence will help with her recovery
Hi Vicki, what a wonderful gift for a New year ! I’ve never been to France so this would be a dream come true . I love reading your posts. Merry Christmas, Carole N .
A week in your wonderful bijoux would be so enjoyable. I wish to introduce my husband to France again, as it has been 34 years since he was there. I think he would enjoy the slower pace and the incredible outdoors in Provence. Merci for your wonderful offering to your followers.
Your posts give me my France fix, transporting me to a world of beautiful details. My husband and I have a deal, we ski Europe and I get a week in Paris for the sales, or when on our way to Africa we always have a few days to “adjust” our clocks in Paris. But we have many, many more French destinations on our list, including Provence. Thank you for this kind sweepstakes for your entranced public.
Such a generous offer Vicki. I’ve been a subscriber for a long time. I love your blog it’s so inspirational and lifts my day. I long to visit the south of France. xx
Thank you for this lovely and generous offer! This would be the best Christmas gift EVER!!!!! A true dream come true!!!!!! Fingers and toes crossed that I win ;)))). Have a very Merry Christmas!!!!
Vicki, I have been reading your blog religiously since forever! You are wonderful in so many ways! I just came back from two weeks in Paris and I remembered your saying Filorga was available in the drugstores. I stay in a little apartment on the Ile St. Louis and I walked around to to the pharmacy and voilà, there it was!
I have only been in Provence for a couple of weeks but I would love to go back and visit your town. I will cross my fingers that I win and hae the fun of seeing who I want to come along with me!
Take care…
Ruth
Visiting France is on my bucket list. I have been reading your blog for a long time now and it is one of my favorites. Thank you for this wonderful giveaway!
Packing my bags always wanted to go to France.
Love your pics. Wishing everyone ‘Bonne Chance’.
I’d so love to win this beautiful dream, Vicki. I would write a guest blog post for you and tell you and everyone about it…and, bien sur, celebrate it in your style : )
Thank you for your generous give-away Vicki. Like many, I’ve purchased your books and followed your blog to feed my dreams of having a French life like yours. I’ve never ventured as far south as Aix . Le Petit Bijou looks like a perfect holiday destination……and I won’t have to wield a paint brush or hammer!
It’s been 40 years since I’ve studied in France. A visit to Provence would have me dusting off my language skills. Thank you for the contest
Un verre qui n’est jamais vide… oui!
How positively generous!!! And what a lovely thing to think about with all of the other chaos going on in the world. Whoever wins is most lucky indeed!!!!
Thank you so much for all of the work you do on your blog. I look forward to it everyday.
Merry Christmas!
Amy
A sketchpad, a box of watercolors and a field of lavender = a perfect day in Provence.
French Essence speaks to all my favorite things; France, Fashion, Beauty, Family
I’ve been to Paris several times but never to Provence.
Hope I have Bonne Chance.
Linda
Vicki,
What a fabulous trip! Thanks so much for your inspiring photos and words. I would love to take my husband/ best friend who “loved me through” breast cancer. I can’t think of a better place to celebrate. Happy holiday to you and your family and to all your readers!
Your beautiful book ” In a French Life” has offered so many suggestions of authentic Parisian places to visit, I have entered them in my personal travel log. And they are truly magical to experience, as you describe.
Arles has been an inspiring place to wander and muse in, visiting other towns of Provence is the next step. You offer so many lovely suggestions for Aix en Provence, to start with.
You make dreams come true, your blog is enchanting.

Sending the warmest wishes for the happiest of holidays to you and the family!
It would be a dream come true for my partner and I to go back to Provence. We have some very special memories in the south of France and it would mean the world to us to be able to go back. Love your blog Vicki :) xx
Provence? For a week? This single, working mother says, “Yes, please!!”
What a generous prize Vicki. We stayed at Le Petit Bijou and it was absolutely incredible. The lucky winner is going to have a fabulous stay! As for us, we hope to stay again soon. Love, Janelle
Thank you Vicki for such a lovely opportunity to stay
LPB. It would be a dream to stay there. Have
adored your blog for so many years and you have
inspired thousands of women all over the world.Xx Trish
Thank you for such a generous giveaway! I enjoy reading your inspirational blog and hope to visit France someday. Crossing my fingers.
I visited Provence for the first time in July this year. It was brief as we were with a group but I decided then that I really need to visit the region again and explore further. This would be a perfect excuse! Beautiful Thank you Vicki!!
Vicki thank you for this giveaway! My husband and I joined a tour to Paris and Provence in 2009 and St Remy was one of the stops. I would love to go back and explore more of this beautiful Provençal place. My love of Paris and Provence makes me look forward to reading your blog everyday…anything French!
As soon as I retire in 2017 I am coming to tour France and Italy – on my bucket list for new life!
Morning(6th Dec in Aus.) Vicki
Think I am number 420 to email in order to be a chance for this unbelievably generous offer!!! It’s been a hellishingly sad year for me – lost my dear Mom, my best mate, moved house and now find my next best mate (my dog) has a very rare disease peculiar only to his breed and I want to run away to take some time for myself. This would be perfect!
Hi Sue, just a brief note – I just lost my Mom as well. She was my best friend, and so I know precisely how you feel. Also I punctured my left vertebral artery from visiting a local hair salon that didn’t use neck protectors on their basins. This move to the UK to marry my fellow has been more than adventurous since I arrived. What I wish is for all of us to win. In this troubled world we all need a break in France. Good luck!
How I would love to win this and celebrate many, many years of friendship with my BFF who first told me about your awesome site.
A week in Provence! ooh lala, just the thought could get me through the long Canadian winter…I’m packing my sketchbook and watercolors now just in case!
Vicki, I’ve been a follower for years. Love your style! I’m a Francophile and adore reading and learning more about France. We love spending time in Paris and Provence. Wow! It would be incredible to win a week at Le Petit Bijou. It would be the perfect way to celebrate my 70th birthday in 2018. Thanks for the opportunity!
Oh my gosh!!! My heart is seriously pounding faster! Ha! I’d LOVE to win a trip to your town. Marvelous and so generous of you, Vicki! Thank you!
Mais oui … I am a photographer and would LOVE a week in Provence!
That would be wonderful time with my daughters. Thank you for your inspiring blog.
I never miss a posting! Thank you for your take on timeless fashion and finding a signature style. What a generous offer–Thank you for the chance to experience your beautiful place in Provence. Warmest wishes to you, Vicki.
What a wonderful gift, Vicki! I can only imagine the scents, the scenery, the food and the people of St. Remy! Thank you for bringing France to us! I adore following your blog posts. It is as if you transport us from all corners of the world to share the Provençal experience with you. Merci!
Merci. How thoughtful is this gift. Your blog is always delicious. Thank u so very much for a year of little jewels.
Would love to visit St.Remy ! Just moi and husband.
The thought of winning this generous offering would be a dream come true right about now as I sit here having a pity party for myself. First I was bitten on the foot by a poisonous snake in October (swelling still hasn’t gone down) and today I had a deep skin cancer removed from that leg. Of course I’ll come out of my funk soon.
Provence . . . I can practically smell the lavendar from here!
Thank you for this generous offering of a chance to win a stay there at Le Petite Bijou!
I would love the opportunity to stay at your beautiful home with my French boyfriend! Returning to Provence would be a treat, I haven’t been back in many years. I would love to revisit Le Pont de Gard and all the lovely villages in the area. Your website and books are a special pleasure.
I look forward to your Blog each day and thoroughly enjoy reading your insights and tips. What I would really enjoy is a week at Le Petite Bijou!! such a nice offer……Thanks, Judy
Would be a dream come true! I have never been to France but I am in love with her through books, movies, fashion, food and wine. Oh what a delight it would be to spend time to get to her!
Vicki,
My head would explode (in a good way) if I won this trip. My husband and I have a 3 year-old and have not taken a vacation since I was pregnant. To add to this, my mother is battling ALS and my father was just diagnosed with cancer. He is having his kidney removed today. To say this has been a difficult year would be putting it mildly. A trip to Provence woukd be a blessing! Thank you for offering this opportunity to your readers.
Oh my goodness, what a wonderful surprise! Haven’t been back to Provence in 20+ years. If only…..
I’m rather new to your blog but not to loving all things French, especially the southern region of France. It is due to reading about you and seeing the photos of Le Petit Bijou that I visited St Remy a few weeks ago while touring for 11 days. All I can say is that the visit was too, too short. I would love to stay longer and experience the true town life. Thank you for the generous opportunity! Cheryl
One of my most special memories was there. To go back would be a dream💞
Thank you for the opportunity to win a week stay in Provence.
Such a lovely, generous ‘thank you’ for your followers! I once sprained my ankle in Saint Remy while holding a bowl and 12 plates purchased there. Miraculously, only one plate was broken, leaving me to enjoy the nearly complete set over these past years. I’d love a chance to revisit, not having to hobble around!
Pure Francophile Delight! Ecstatic about the possibility of experiencing Le Petit Bijou!
Thank you.
Having followed your creation of Le Petit Bijou through your posts about it, I cannot think of a place I would rather spend a week. Thank you for your blog, Vicki. I always enjoy reading it and learn from it. Best wishes from the northwestern Oregon, where we actually saw some snowflakes this morning, Leslie
Best gift ever! I read your blog and dream every day. You are a treasure to us, Vicki, thank you so much!
Your blog is so informative and interesting. I love reading it. Spending time in Provence would be a dream come true………I can practice my French………….
I will be attending a workshop near Toulouse in late June and I would love to visit St Remy. I love France. Thank you for this contest.
Hi Vicki,
I have and continue to enjoy your newsletters/blog. Provence! Wow!!! That would be so exciting!
Love reading your blog and would love the chance to spend some time in your wonderful place.
Thank you for such a generous opportunity! We love St. Remy.
Love reading your blog for fashion and beauty inspiration as we are close in age. But hearing about your life in St Remy has been the highlight. Would love to see for myself!
I follow your post since 2 years ago and I enjoy a lot reading it. Thank you for the beautiful opportunity to visit Provence, it’s a dream!
What a gracious gift! My daughter did a study abroad in Aix en Provence in the Spring of 2015 and of course, we went for a visit! Would love to see more! Again, thank you for this opportunity.
Thank you Vicki for the opportunity! I would love to explore every inch of this quaint town! Merry Christmas!
Loved Paris. Now to go to Provence..a dream. Love your blog.
What a lovely and kind gesture. The pictures of Le Petit Bijou look absolutely stunning and it would be a joy to spend a week surrounded by such beauty.
Every time I have the great good fortune to be in St Remy I always walk by this little jewel and imagine how fun it would be to stay there! Thanks for such a generous contest!
Vicki
Living in Australia, i love your early morning greetings and look forward to the charmimg photographs you supply for our enjoyment, sometimes amusement! I then follow you on Instagram where it all dovetails. Thank you for such good advice always delivered with kindness.I have never been to the south of France although I visited Paris for my 60 th birthday with my daughter. Just divine.
How generous! I would be delighted to win, but after reading the comments above, there are many others who sound like they need the trip and accommodations more than I do. (My husband and I recently stayed at LPB.) Good luck to them! And again – this is a very kind thing to do for your readers!Merry Christmas.
Oh my goodness, what a FABULOUS opportunity! Please, please pick my name…..that would be such a dream come true! The

Un verre qui n’est jamais vide…oui!
J’apprécie vraiment vos mails, merci!
Wonderful FABULOUS idea! Glorious thought……..escape!
I would LOVE to experience the wonders of Provence….. Wander all the way up from Australia and entice my hardworking daughter living in London to join me!!
“It seems unimaginable to “miss” the unique qualities of such a blessed region and unthinkable to be so contented the individual qualities that set Provence apart can be ignored.”
I’m feeling lucky!!
Happy holidays, dear Vicki!
what could be better than visiting Provence?
I have followed you for so long….love your book…you give me inspiration to continue my dream to visit provence…I have made it to paris and know that your gorgeous county is next on my list…..thank you for this generous dream come true possibility to so many to whom you have already given so much !

Dear Vicki, I’ve so enjoyed reading your books, particularly My French Life – thank you for that! What a wonderful opportunity for St. Remy. My husband and I never did make it to Provence for our honeymoon, so St. Remy would truly be a joy as our 5th anniversary approaches. Vicki you’ve been such an inspiration.
Merry Christmas Vicki. I would love this more than anything!
Dear Vicki,
I have been a follower of yours for many years, having begun knowing you through your books. I admire your life, your talents, your relationships…it’s dreamy to think that maybe I could stay in your home!! Thank you for a wonderfully inspiring blog. My Best, Catherine

Hi Vicki Look how popular this post is!! How will you ever chose let alone read all these posts?! I just wanted to wish you a very Merry Xmas and say I’d love to catch up again when you are back in Sydney. Of course I too would love to have a week in your beautiful little piece of paradise.

Love your blog. Thank you for all of your efforts in keeping us mesmorized.
I would love to move from Australia to France and a week staying at Le Petit Bijou may just tip my husband to agreeing.
What a dream come true is all I can say!! Thank you for your generosity.
what a wonderful 70th Birthday gift to me this week at La Petite Bijou could be…
Love, love your tips and conversations about how we ‘mature” women can still remain stylish, interesting and relevant…travel tips are fabulous too, especially love learning of “insider info” to use when traveling.
A week in Provence would be heaven on earth!
Vicki this would be a dream come true, I’m just hoping from Australia!! ❤️
I follow you now on Pinterest and Facebook
I’ve been to Paris but never Provence. Thank you for the chance to go

Wow Vicki!
What a generous prize.
You really are an inspiration.
Thank you.
Jackie.
Love your magic everyday Thank you Vickie . A week in your beautiful home & your beloved St Remy would be amazing x
Vicki, we tried to book your lovely accommodation September 2015, on the advice of friends who had stayed there. Unfortunately it was already booked for the week we wanted. We did however meet the lovely American couple who had beaten us to the punch and they gave us a tour. Beautiful property and since we plan to return to this beautiful part of the world, will try again. Thanks for the opportunity to win a week!
When you make your list and check it twice, I hope you find that I’ve been nice!
So happy to find you again Vicki Archer.
What a lovely Christmas gift that would be! I’ve been counting my blessings a lot more recently but that surely still allows for the anticipation of more?
Wow, how generous. What a gorgeous destination. It’s been over ten years since I visited Provence but the memories remain.
Amour, amour, amour!
Xox
You little minx, you! All right, i will succumb! You know we all enjoy your inspired beauty and fashionable style eye-candy, written with charm and knowledge… I think you should give it to David Terry, but if not, i will accept your gracious offer. Bon jour!
Oh how I would love to be there. Am loving your blog and read and reread your beautiful “French Connection ” and “My French Life”. Crossing fingers toes and heart to be winner.
I was so excited to see that you have put your beautiful Bijou up as a prize again. Absolutely gorgeous! To stay there would be such a special treat and in a special part of the world.I would feel like I had died and gone to heaven.
This would be a dream come true! Pick me ! Pick me! Thank you for always being the best Blog I read everyday…many days I save it until the end of the day to just read every word and examine all the pictures. It would be wonderful to be just steps from the Wednesday market and have baguettes, lavender honey and espresso ! Thank you for this opportunity….I have faith!
What a great blog. Even though I have only been to Paris once this blog is a great reminder
of everything Parisian without getting on a plane! Thanks for a beautiful visual!
Hi Vicki, after scrolling through 514 posts, I finally get to add mine :) This time I didn’t have time to read them all, just would so love to experience and enjoy your part of Provence.

Vicki your email each day is a joy to read – taking us all away from the reality of ‘ordinary’ life!! Thank you for the inspiration, delight and travel so far away from my life in farming Australia.
What a wonderful gift! I would love to explore Provence and return to such a beautiful setting. My husband and I are planning a trip to France next year , and this would be a dream!
How generous of you to offer a week long stay in your beloved Provence. Count me in!
The opportunity to immerse oneself and to experience the area would be wonderful.
Your blog has been such sweet addition to my life too…..this wonderfully generous gift is another expression of who you are. Thank you for another great year!
I so look forward to reading your blog. For some reason I am drawn to the south of France therefore I can immerse myself for a brief time whilst reading your page. I love it. Thank you.
Vicki, what an extremely generous prize. It would be a dream come true to spend a week in Provence in Le Petit Bijou. My husband and I will be celebrating our 30th Wedding Anniversary in September 2018 and our plans were to go to France and visit Provence and stay at Le Petit Bijou.
My dream is to go to Provence and I have looked at your tres chic Le Petit Bijou on line and knew
that is where I would want to stay! Fingers crossed!!!!!
So beautiful. I watched you renovate it with loving care choosing individual pieces from markets, etc. How wonderful to be able to marinate oneself in such a delightful place as Saint Remy for a whole week!
The Little Jewel in September would be perfect especially since the birthday of a close friend of my beloved Paula will be celebrated for a whole week in St Remy de Provence. I’m going anyway but I’ve heard so much about this lovely little house….
This would be a dream come true! Thank you for doing this.
What a fabulous treat it would be to spend time in Provence! I love your blog and always look forward to learning about your choices in beauty products.

My 10 year old niece has gone to French school (in California) since 1st grade. She is now fluent, I would love to take her to Provence. Great blog! Hope I didn’t send this twice…. not trying to increase the odds. It’s the first time I have ever posted.
A week in Provence would be a dream come true!
I would love to have the opportunity to spend a week in St. Remy. Thank you for the chance.

Oh my goodness. I have loved your style, in written word as well as fashion and home, since my husband gave me a copy of your first book for Christmas the year it was published. I immediately sat down and read it from cover to cover. His inscription was that he would take me to Paris again someday. What a joy it would be to stay in Provence. You are my favorite blog. Thank you, thank you!
Yes, Yes and Yes, …..I’m an artist and would love to visit Provence again….I would paint beautiful images of the fashion, the countryside, the city……I would LOVE to win this wonderful vacation!

Hi Vicki, I look more and more forward to reading French Essence with every post! I lived in Paris 30 years ago and it truly changed my life. My dream is to have a place like Le Petit Bijou in the South of France someday…a girl can dream, right? Would love to be selected for this amazing experience!
I adore your pictures and words…please please me and my family!
Dear Vicki, being an Aussie like you, I feel like I am in France even just for a moment each morning. I can only imagine what Provence would be like, the little cobblestone streets, the smell and taste of fresh baguettes and excitement of lively market days. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the emails on the most inspiring women from around the world, I realised that Vicki Archer readers all have BIG Hearts. x
I would love to win this trip! I have always dreamed of Provence. My mother was born in France, and I would so love to visit along with my husband.

A week in Provence, sounds delightful! Thank you Vicki for your inspirational blog. I look forward to it everyday.
Vicki,
What an amazing gift. It is my dream to visit France. I have never been. I will be finishing a dual master’s in nursing (at age 49) in August, and a girlfriend and I plan to visit France to celebrate. Saint Remy would be perfect. I love your beautiful blog! It is one of the few extracurricular pleasures I take the time for these days.
Thank you!
Vicky,
Bonjour! I now have visions of Provence dancing in my head for Christmas! Beautiful images of your precious Le Petit Bijou are swirling! I have so enjoyed following your adventurers and your worldly style! How did you know I have never been to Provence but have been longing to go! Thank you for brightening my day….everyday! Cheers and Blessings to you and yours! XO
So happy I could figure out how to leave a comment!
Love your blog and thanks for sharing the beauty of France!
Hoping to get the opportunity to go to Provence -my lifelong dream! Merci
Hello Vicki:this would be the greatest thing ever if I won this! Thank your generous heart for giving this away!
Vicky, thank you for the generosity of sharing your time everyday with us. The picture of “Le Petite Bijou” reflects its owner’s quiet elegance that speaks so much…. so eloquently… the epitome of ‘wabi-sabi’! Again, your gift is an offer of your generous spirit!
Your website is amazing! I love your beautiful life. So inspiring! It would be amazing to experience the joys of Provence first-hand.
What an incredible trip this would be! Your blog is amazing and I can’t imagine how wonderful it would be to win a trip like this. Merry Christmas, Vicki!
Hey, why not? I’d love a chance to travel out of this country and fulfill two major dreams.. Foreign travel and photography. Maybe I can use the little bit of French that I learned in high school. Eat, Pray, Love!
Dear Vicki,
I have been a subscriber ever since I read your first book “My French Life”. I would love a week in Provence. It would be living the dream.
Happy Christmas.
Vicki How very generous of you. This would be a dream come true for so many reasons.
As I look outside my office window at the falling snow I am reminded, again, that the winter is just starting here in northern New England. What a lovely daydream to imagine myself and my love under the same stars that inspired Van Gogh in Provence sipping rose next summer….
What generous gift! I would love a week get away to Saint Remy! I am a French woman at heart 💗💕
What a wonderful contest Vicki, you know how to inspire us girls! I’ve not visited Provence, but dream one day of seeing those lavender fields in full bloom. Thank you for the opportunity at a chance to win, I have everything crossed!
What a generous thank you gift! You truly are remarkable! And how lovely would it be heading in the new year to know that a holiday is on the horizon!
Thank you, Vicki, for the opportunity. Have been following you for a few years now. My dream was to be in France next March with my two girls. Life changes and sometimes there are challenges which we must face, ones that help us grow; the gifts not always apparent at first. Your articles, pictures and colours are delightful and I must admit that I live vicariously through them. Each time I see your name in my ‘inbox’ I get excited, knowing I am about to be transported to France; inspired by your beautiful photographs, fashion, decorative pieces. So, thank you for all that you do to inspire others. Best wishes and Merry Christmas. xx
Well, of course! That sounds heavenly.
xoxo
I love Provence but have never been to St Remy and would love to spend a week there.
What a wonderful gift! I look forward to my week in Provence!!!
What an incredible giveaway! This is VERY exciting! I love your blog and also My Daily Click. I feel as if I know you from all of your wonderful musings.
what a dream it would be… I was in St Remy once many years ago, my first ever trip to France with my now husband. His daughter was in school in Aix an Provence at the time, it was like a dream to me … I long to return to Provence and I will some day…. my memories of the area are still very vivid and I remember I painting many paintings from my photos from that trip… thank you for a chance to maybe win … I have been reading your blog for seems like years now…
Vicki you have stirred up a longing and passion in me to visit your beautiful Provence . Your blog with its awesome images , scenes and descriptions truly show your love for this special place . After a year of intense grieving the loss of my husband of 30 years , I cannot think of any way better to transport me from my challenging year here in South Africa to a bissful week soaking up the spirit of Provence . My beautiful daughter will be my traveling companion .

I love your blog and I love the south of France. A week in Provence/St. Remy would be heaven!
What a wonderful offer! Provence! Divine!
Hi Vikki,
St Remy is my favourite place in Provence and I started going after purchasing your first book…then your follow up! I followed your blog as you reno’d Le Petit Bijou…and would die to stay there!
Plus the Canadian winter is upon us….I need to dream!,
Luv,
Kate
So many more comments than usual but I do understand why. Such generosity is hard to find these days. Love your blog and hope to continue to be able to read it for many years to come.
Odds are stacked against me but what a gift it would be for me to win this. The giveaway day is my 29th wedding anniversary. Nice coincidence.
Hello from Canada,
Love your blog and I’ve followed you for many years. St Remy would be amazing, especially staying in your little gem.
I would love to revisit Provence. I’m totally in awe by the beauty of this incredible part of France.
I’ve loved watching Le Petite Bijou come to life over the years on your blog. What a wonderful place to spend time in Provence
What a lovely and generous gift. Merci.
Fingers crossed!
Dear Vicki, Well, all I can say is that St. Rémy-de-Provence is the perfect place to stay for daily excursions. The house is amazing and cosy, makes you feel like home. I would recommend this gem to everyone and would love to go back and spend a week there. 💞🍀☀️️ Greetings from 🇨🇭 Cristina 🛀🏻 😉
I have been wanting to make a trip to France for quite some time. I can’t think of anything I’d like better than a week in Provence!
Ooooh Vicki! What a generous gift! Well how could anyone say no to a week in Provence? And staying at your gorgeous little jewel box would be oh-so special!

Vicki, I absolutely love your blog and follow all your advice on makeup and fashion. I would love to win the trip to Provence. It’s my favorite place on earth. Thank you so much for the opportunity – I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed! Wishing you all the best, Suzanne
Hi Vicki
I feel I am talking to an old friend. Your site has inspired me with many things and I have followed it for many years I suppose we were maturing together. Lots of times I have thought above leaving a message but didn’t feel my messages would be as exciting as the rest.
I couldn’t pass up the chance to win a trip to beautiful France and especially Provence.
I would like to wish you, your family and all your readers a very happy Christmas and an exciting New Year. God Bless
As 2016 draws to a close and I reflect on the year that was, I think of all who have come into my life this year, and those who’ve left a lasting impression. There’s one special person who I’d love to bring with me to Provence – to show him another side of myself, and hopefully help him to discover the peace and serenity Le Petit Bijou will offer.
I found your blog and read your book. I took my first trip to Paris by myself this summer. Your writing encouraged me to go. France is the land of my ancestors as I am a descendent of King Louis the IIX and X and Charlemagne. My whole life I have had a fondness for all things French, the language, the ballet (I still teach), the art, music and culture. Seeing the countryside would complete this incomplete picture I now carry and I know that the beauty of it will speak to the heart of my being. Blessings for joyeaux Noel!!
Merci beacoup for the chance to realize a dream come true!! You are most generous!
Merry Christmas!
Thank you Vicki for your wonderful opportunity to all your readers. We are returning to France in 2018 and a week in beautiful St Remy would be a dream come true.
Wishing you and your family the very best for Christmas.
I’ve been a follower of this inspiring blog for years! I love being inspired by your ideas and recommendations. The Saint Rémy-de-Provence residence looks just as inspiring as your blog!!
Would be a dream come true, a holiday in Provence is on my bucket list.
This would be heaven on earth. Hopefully, I will finish my treatments by next Spring and this would make an absolutely fantastic reward for making it through! It is such a beautiful abode. You did a wonderful job – I followed all your postings on your findings, as you remodeled and furnished Le Petit Bijou, piece by piece. I would love to spend time there – and, it would be wonderful to meet you! This is a very generous give away- very special! Thank you for the opportunity!
Hi Vicki
Your regular emails bring a spark to my day. Thank you for the inspiration and this lovely opportunity.
Regards
Vicki, your eye for capturing the beauty of France and the essence of all things chic is quite magical and caught eye when I spotted your book on a friend’s coffee table in South Africa. I had moved to Ireland where I still live and wrote to you sharing my goal to start blogging. You encouraged me so warmly, I’ve never forgotten that. Since then my friends Nuala and Toni have stayed in your beautiful Petit Bijou and adored every minute.It has been a dream to spend some time in your little gem of a spot. It is top of my wishlist and I would absolutely love it! Thank you for the beauty and inspiration 💓
Oh! What a fabulous gift I would love to win this. Please pick me xx
