Shopping isn’t an indulgence; it’s a sport. And as such, an afternoon spent down the Avenue des Champs-Elyseés should be followed by some vigorous pampering. After all, tired legs, aching arms and sore pinkies (from entering your pin number, natch) deserve some love. Opened in 2006 by French beauty institute Payot, The Espace Payot’s soothingly soft interiors (think sunken floor, Italian stone and minimalist decor) encorporates a swimming pool, fitness area, steam rooms and saunas, ‘polyvalent body and face cabins’ named after precious stones (ooh la la), and of course, a well stocked bar. Because if all else fails, nothing takes the pain away like a nice, dry martini. You athlete, you.
