Le mot du jour : taper dans l’œil
Slightly different from last week’s “tape-à-l’œil”, “taper dans l’œil” (to hit in the eye) is used to talk about things you’ve noticed favorably.
Ex : J’ai vu ce manteau en vitrine, il m’a tout de suite tapé dans l’œil ! (I saw that coat in the window, I liked it straight away!)
It works for people too, you can perfectly say that someone “vous a tapé dans l’œil”. I have to admit though, that I prefer the English expression “easy on the eye” because it sounds much softer! 😀
