à la belle étoile – at the beautiful star. And just like in English, une étoile is a star in the sky and in the movies. In everyday French, à la belle étoile means ‘outside’, ‘out in the open’, ‘under the stars’. This expression is often used with the verb COUCHER, to sleep.

* « Les enfants sont tout contents, car ils vont coucher dans le champ, à la belle étoile. »

* “The children are very happy, for they are going to sleep in the field, under the stars.”
