When it comes to fashion, the French seem to do it better. Their beauty and style are admired all around the world; they live in one of the biggest capitals of fashion, after all. But how can they look gorgeous all the time? They must have their own secrets.
Now Parisian women definitely know how to dress well; they’re great at style. And if you want to know more about what fashion mistakes they avoid to look how they do, then definitely read on!
You Will Learn About:
1. Wearing Sweatpants (All the Time)
Now I don’t want you feeling judged by this.
I get it, they’re comfortable and nice to wear around the house. But I think that when it becomes the main staple in your wardrobe, it can become a problem.
You deserve to dress in outfits that make you look and feel amazing! I honestly believe that dressing up in fashionable clothing that compliments you is self-love.
Also, the reason why you’re here is to know what Parisian women do and don’t do fashion-wise. And sweats are apparently a big no when it comes to building a wardrobe.
2. Wearing Logos
The French fashion editor, Carine Roitfeld, said, “[French style is] more the way you mix the clothes and how you move, how you open your bag, how you cross your legs—just little things that make a difference. With French women, you first see the woman and then you see the clothes.”
The simpler, the better; Parisian women believe that less is more. They think being stylish doesn’t mean you have to be wearing flashy designer logos in order to look good.
It’s about showing you off, and making you look your best, not the brand.
3. Following Trends
Julia has been quoted saying, “Please don’t ask me about trends. I’m into buying clothes that make me feel pretty, that flatter me, but I have never cared about having the latest thing.”
I mean think about all the times you went into a store, saw a new style trend, and thought, “That’ll be out of fashion in 6 months or less.”
So Instead:
Stay classic and create your own signature look.
It really is the best and can make shopping and getting ready so much easier.
4. Buying Clothes that Don’t Fit the Body
Speaking of trends, right now wearing bigger-sized clothes is the thing.
But French designer Sophie Theallet says that wearing clothes that fit your body well is the first step to looking elegant.
She suggests women wear body-fitting clothes regardless of trends.
5. Not Having an Element of Surprise
The model, Ines de la Fressange, talked about an important point of a Parisian women’s style.
“Always keep them surprised. If they think you’ll wear heels, wear flats. If they expect flats, wear heels. – Bottom line: even if you have a uniform, don’t let it make you predictable. Add an element of surprise in every outfit you wear, whether it’s a single rip in your otherwise brand new jeans, or a fancy jacket with your casual tee.“
6. Wearing Heels You Can Hardly Walk In
Parisian women tend to buy heels they know they’ll be able to walk in, not just something that looks good.
They wanna look pretty, but they don’t wanna sacrifice comfort.
You’ll want to be walking confidently and in something that looks a bit more natural than 6-inch heels.
And of course, that seems to kind of be the Parisian ethos for fashion.
