They can also be used as gifts to give. And, in any case, it is good to support the merchants in our neighborhood!

Kerzon soaps: a holiday scent

One or more bars of soap slipped into your suitcase is guaranteed to perfume your clothes. These ecological products are free of palm oil but enriched with organic shea butter. Their formula includes nourishing superfatting agents: ideal for cleansing the skin without drying it out or making it tight. After using them all summer, these soaps with delicate scents (mint-fig, neroli-orange blossom, rose-geranium, coconut-frangipani, etc.) then become, in the depths of winter, Proust madeleines which remind us of the good times spent on vacation.

The mini-bag from rue de Bretagne

We love everything about the stand of this small leather craftsman who has worked for major shoe makers. For more than ten years, Stéphane has been selling his own creations, sober and elegant, right in front of the Enfants-Rouges market. Its collections of pouches, pencil cases, card holders and glasses cases invite you to spend because the prices are reasonable. (from 10 to 130€). A perfect gift. Our favorite piece: the ultra-sober cowhide velvet bag (matte or shiny) made in front of passers-by. The choice is yours: mini, medium or large.

Sakhina M'sa's pink sweatshirt  

This Marseille-based stylist of Comorian origin is always ahead of the trends. She was one of the first to set up her store on rue Volta (3e) when the sector was little used. Its ready-to-wear house, which takes its social responsibilities, promotes creations 90% from upcycling and 100% made in France. We like: the powder pink sweatshirt with the inscription Support my Girl Gang in organic cotton. Perfect for “chilling” in the evening.

Maison Cabirol: a signet ring on your finger

No need to have blue blood to wear a signet ring on your little finger. Desacralized, this jewel has become an essential. At Cabirol, the version of this ring is in vermeil and lacquer.  

From 145€

There are also gold models set with fine or precious stones (garnets, amethysts, sapphires, diamonds) but, obviously, they are more expensive.

Maison Bourgeat: “stylish” glasses

This French eyewear maker has been designing and manufacturing glasses (frames and lenses) since 1879 in his workshops in the Morez valley, in the Jura, for Balmain, Lanvin and Saint-Laurent.

Taken over in 2017 by an optician, the brand offers three ranges: tailor-made, industrialized tailor-made and models for less than €100. All are sold with corrective lenses designed by Oscar Esteves, best worker in France.

The prices are fair and reasonable, which is worth emphasizing: as a general rule, opticians, certain of being reimbursed by social security and mutual insurance companies, charge shameless margins, sometimes up to 70%. We love the design of “too stylish” sunglasses.

Roseanna: “so chic” swimsuits

Roseanne is one of those responsible brands whose good deeds we like to follow. During the first confinement, it donated 10% of its turnover to the emergency fund of the AP-HP Foundation, in order to support research and healthcare staff.

In its store on rue Froissart, a printed swimsuit, made from Liberty of London silk crepe, is popular. Available in two pieces (Music) or in a one-piece version (Falcon). The first, with a bikini cut and the second, with its deep neckline enhance the silhouettes.

€40 for the top, €35 for the bottom, €150 for the one-piece.

Millet, from the mountains to the Marais

From the top of this outdoor and technical clothing store, a hundred years of family history gaze down upon you. Created in 1921 in Chamonix, the Millet brand is still managed by the family of the same name. It is therefore a bit of French heritage and know-how that arrives from the Alps to settle in the Marais…
