Parlez-vous français?

above: French icon, Brigitte BardotLaetitia Casta for French ELLE

We are working on putting together an event at Faire Frou Frou that will involve shopping, champagne and French lessons! French instructor Monique Aldebert will give guests a mini tutorial on sweet little phrases for your next shopping trip to Paris; teaching essential lingerie terms, how to ask for those necessary directions to Laduree, terms of endearment, and so forth. For example, the French word for bra is 'soutien-gorge'...probably not a lot of Americans know that! At least we all know what the French word for 'lingerie' is!
We will let you know when we set a date for this event.

To contact Monique for private French lessons (her classes are light-hearted and fun), you can contact her at (818) 376-0410.

    What a wonderful, wonderful idea! I wish I could attend. I've been planning to learn French for a while, but I suddenly got so much to do work/study wise I had to leave it for now...
    And I love BB. She was such a gorgeous little woman.

    Laëtitia Casta wasn't really loved in France at the beginning, plus, she didn't act very well in her first film "la bycyclette rose", but now, we really like her. She doesn't look like a skinny model, she has a beautiful face and she's discret.
    You had an amayzing idea with these french lessons!
    Bises.
