La Bien Aimée's boutique éphémère!

La Bien Aimée Pop-Up shop in Paris:

March 26 to April 6, 2024

27 Passage Choiseul 
75002 Paris
From 11am to 7pm (closed on Sundays and Mondays)

The La Bien Aimée Pop-Up Shop is coming back in 2024! We will be back at 27 Passage Choiseul, in the lovely passage where we spent two weeks this last spring.

Come and shop La Bien Aimée in person AND in Paris! La Bien Aimée is bringing back its boutique éphémère in 2024 for 2 weeks, from March 26 to April 6. 

We are preparing a lot of new products and some surprises très spéciales. There will be new yarns, new colors, new accessories... You can come and meet Aimée as well as shop some of our most popular La Bien Aimée colors and bases.

 

The pop-up space is located in one of Paris’ most beautiful and historic covered passages: Passage Choiseul. At the heart of Paris' Japanese district, the passage and streets surrounding it are full of charming cafés and delicious restaurants. Needless to say, there are countless amazing food options to choose from.

It is also within walking distance of many of Paris’ most famous landmarks: the Opéra Garnier, the Palais Royal, the Louvre museum, place Vendôme and rue Saint-Honoré… The closest métro station is Pyramides on lines 7 and 14. 

 

La Bien Aimée Pop-Up: 27 Passage Choiseul, 75002 Paris

Were you waiting for the perfect excuse to plan a trip to Paris? This is it! We promise you will have a unique experience. Printemps in Paris is a lovely time! We can’t guarantee good weather, but it should be warm enough to drink a café at a terrasse, go for a walk in the Jardin des Tuileries, and come by the shop to try on some samples and get lots of knitting inspiration! 

Pick up your order at the La Bien Aimée Pop-Up!

Once again, we are offering you the possibility to pick up your order at the boutique. From March 26 to April 6, you can pick up your order at the pop-up shop in person.

A couple of things to keep in mind:

Simply place an order on the La Bien Aimée online shop as usual, and hit reply when you receive the order confirmation email. In your reply, please state that you are coming to the pop-up shop to pick up your order. The shipping will be refunded to you once you have picked up your order.

If you place an order between now and March 21, your order will be waiting for you on the first day of the pop-up shop, March 26.

If you place an order between March 22 and April 3, please allow us at least 3 working days to prepare your order and have it brought to the pop-up. Orders placed after April 3 will not be eligible for pick-up at the pop-up.

Remember, the La Bien Aimée pop-up shop will only be open for 2 weeks!

Meet Jonna Helin at the La Bien Aimée Pop-Up Shop and join our Lento Love KAL!

I have the pleasure of announcing that Jonna Helin of Laine Publishing is coming to visit the La Bien Aimée Pop-Up Shop on Saturday, April 6. We are celebrating with a Lento Knit-along!

Join La Bien Aimée and Laine Magazine for the Lento Love KAL! From April 6 to May 6, knit a Lento sweater with us and you will have the chance to knit a fantastic sweater and maybe win one of the great prizes offered by La Bien Aimée and Laine Magazine!

Let’s all knit a Lento together! Lento is a true classic, a wardrobe staple.  A simple top-down raglan sweater, Lento is knit in La Bien Aimée Merino Singles and Kumo held together on a 6mm needle. This creates a super soft fabric, that is still light and a true pleasure to wear. Best of all, it knits up fast!

Jonna Helin is the editor-in-chief of Laine Magazine and co-founder, creative director and CEO of Laine Publishing. She has also designed many of Laine’s most beloved knitwear patterns. Jonna doesn’t actually consider herself a knitwear designer: usually she just knits and makes up the pattern as she goes. That also makes Jonna’s garments approachable and easy to knit.

“It always starts with the yarn: something in it, be it colour or texture, that evokes an idea in my mind which I shape into a pattern – most often a sweater. Lento reminds me of homey landscapes: pine forests, cottage docks and sand roads.” - Jonna

Saturday 6 April from 3 to 5pm
