Ah, Paris. City of love. City of lights. City of…travel expenses. Although you might be saying c’est si bon to a Parisian vacation, your pocketbook may say otherwise. But if you are in need of a France-fix, look no further than these direct-from-Paris items that each cost a lot less than a plane ticket.

 

Bourjois Rouge Edition Lipstick, $15.23: Perfect your French-girl pout in a lipstick that’s a cult favorite among Parisian women.

 

Caudalie Fleur de Vigne Fresh Fragrance, $39: Reminiscent of the scent of a vineyard in bloom, you may want to enjoy a glass of vin when you wear this fragrance.

 

Gold Crown Ring, $174.97: This popular Etsy seller who hails from Paris makes gorgeous rings to be worn as engagement bands or simply as statement pieces.

 

Petit Bateau Women’s Iconic Mariniere, $96: It doesn’t get any more French than a classic striped shirt à la Coco Chanel.

 

Diptyque 34 Boulevard Saint Germain Candle, $80: Inspired by one of the most celebrated streets in Paris, burn this candle and listen to some Édith Piaf.

 

Agnès b. Beret Maille, $85: A favorite fashion line of French women, get a taste of the brand in — what else? — a beret.

 

Delphine Pariente Yes Necklace, $121: This simple necklace states a simple French word: Oui.

 

Kusmi Tea Bouquet of Flowers N°111, $16.95: As you sip this Parisian-made tea, imagine you’re sitting amid flowers in the Jardin du Luxembourg.

 

Until you’re ready to say bonjour to a trip to Paris, these products will certainly suffice in the meantime.
