Online French Products

Are there any good online resources for French Merchandise? I know of BasicFrenchOnline.com, and Fragonard, and also French Feast, but that is all I can find. I'm just suprized how many other products I can find online from other countries, but not of French things. I was just looking for a little more variety. It's hard to even find French products in gourmet shops in my area. There are Italian, Oriental, Middle Eastern, Indian...etc., etc., markets everywhere... not one French. thanks! Brenda

French natural and organic skincare products

If you love French skincare products that are natural and organic, I found this site - because I visited their store in Chicago www.autrepartnature.com They have these devine french soaps "savons de Marseille" with over 30 different fragrances. They carry NUXE, Caudalie, Naturelle d'Orient, Comptoir du Bain, and many more. Have a look at their Facebook page Autrepart Nature

Savon

Try Googling "Savon d'Marseille". It should help you find the easiest way to purchase these beautiful, beautiful soaps, no matter where in the world you are.

Mexican not French -- but look at my new kitchen bling!

http://www.directfrommexico.com/metal-crafts--nat-tin--switchplates.html These tin switch plate covers are SO FUN, such a subtle but lovely touch that adds a much richer look to the whole room. I'm so very happy with them!

Yves Rocher

Here is another very fun French website. They carry this line at Galeries Lafayette in Paris, and always have on-line freebies to offer. It's so much fun too, to come home and have a package waiting filled with French delights. And their prices are most reasonable. I've been ordering from this company for decades. Sadly, Mon. Yves Rocher just passed away recently. I urge everyone to check it out. http://www.yvesrocherusa.com/control/skin-care/organic-skin-care/

L'Occitane is wonderful!!!! French clothes anyone????

I adore L'Occitane----www.L'Occitane.com, for soaps, shower gels, etc., but have been trying to find French made clothes or shoes on-line now for years!!!! Know what you mean about it being so difficult to find French-made anything!!!! I used to buy many clothes from La Redoute on line, but they took out the USA market. Darn it!!!! Their clothes were adorable, and reasonably priced too. I often do find French lingerie however at T.J Maax or Marshalls. Also I bought 2 Lancel purses at my local T.J. Maax a few years back. I know they are made in France, and they still have held up--very well made. If anyone knows of French-made clothes on-line, please pass the info along!!! The Francophilia site is interesting!!

Anthropologie

The store Anthropologie has a lot of lovely finds. Not all of them are from France, but the stores themselves are decorated in a French Country-esque design that I absolutely adore. Definitely worth checking out!

Anthropologie

Love this website...I'm lucky to have two Anthropologie stores near me...I love browsing and picking up a trinket or TWO!!! I love their candles and home accessories. The clothes are fun and edgy...but a bit too trendy for a "woman of a certain age"...but I will ocassionally purchase a fun accessory to "zip-up" my wardrobe.

New website

I just found this website myself

They have a confit of duck leg that comes highly recommended. Unfortunately, I have found out that you cannot import French sausages, but they have a team of master French charcutiers established in the US. Their Toulouse-style sausage is also recommended. Perfect for a cassoulet when the weather changes.

Online French Soaps

I love to shop for French soaps at Mistral.com and Pre de Provence.com. I especially love the "milk" fragrance. It is very light and clean/fresh smelling and is great for sensitive skin! They carry many other fragrances and all are made in France! Another favorite is the Mistral small tin of Shea Butter which I keep at bedside for nightly application to lips and cuticles!
