At Cherchez La Femme, we like giving gifts way more than we like receiving them (just like 69% of you people out there, according to the National Retail Federation Research & Markets).
This is because, more than anything, we love trying to find a sustainable way to give a thoughtful present to someone, or ourselves.
We’re big advocates for keeping things environmentally friendly, even when looking for a gift. Obviously, there’s the route of buying pre-loved items for your loved ones but in our opinion, the best way to do it is to choose to buy from conscious brands. "The gifting industry" has such a vast number of companies contributing, it’s no surprise that it has a huge impact on our planet. Last year alone, consumers spent $682 billion on presents. This staggering number represents hundreds of thousands of consumers making gifting decisions every day.
Our Mission
Our mission is to be one of those few brands out there that do things mindfully, so you can have your conscience clear when purchasing your next gift from us, that you’re not harming the planet while you do it.
We started this business to demonstrate that it is possible to do things differently. By only producing once you order, we believe that we are preventing over production that inevitably ends up in landfill. We implement this through responsible end-to-end local production and increase consciousness of sustainability & eco-friendliness at every opportunity, through our actions and everything we talk about here on our blog and on social media.
We want to create conversational products that are keepers. Never better expressed than Joan Crawford in the famous quote: "Care for the clothes like the good friends they are".

While flowers, cards and fruit baskets may seem like a great gift idea,, we’ve put together a list of products that are useful, mindful and totally stylish. Plus, it’s all made to order!
