Parisian style has always impressed me every time I visit.
It felt like they were effortlessly fashionable.
And that makes sense; when you have the right pieces in your wardrobe, outfits can just be thrown together easily.
You get some…
- Cute tights
- Nice flats
- A simple but stylish dress
- A pretty overcoat
And you’re out the door to fashionably meet your friend at a local coffee shop.
Now if you find yourself wondering how they do it, then I promise you, there’s not reason to feel intimidated.
It’s a whole lot simpler than you think!
You Will Learn About:
1. Classics Rather Than Trends
Parisian women tend to invest in timeless pieces of clothing, jewelry, and footwear.
They don’t follow the fast fashion trends, but instead, try to adopt things that might add a twist (or compliment) to their existing wardrobe.
Think of them as “perfect basics.”
And here what I mean by that:
- You’re filling your closet up with pieces that all work together.
- Your outfits consist of mainly neutrals with some pops of color.
- You might have one statement piece for different outfits.
Also, this is just great because then your closet is filled up with clothing you’d wear, not a sweater or shoes you haven’t worn in 2 years.
2. Pops of Color from Accessories
I know I brought this up in passing above, but I’m gonna quickly cover it a bit more.
With Parisian style, the women tend to style their outfits in very subtle colors.
The pop is usually added to their outfits from bright-colored scarves, earrings, handbags, or shoes.
The rest of their outfit is usually in neutral colors and subtle hues that are suitable for all situations.
3. Comfort Comes First
Style does not necessarily come from 5-inch heels.
Parisian women will try to find pieces that are going to fit them well, but fit comfortably.
Is this a hard and fast rule? Nope, but it is something that they tend to do.
So if you want to be stylish but comfortable, then it might require just spending a bit more time at the mall to find the right pieces.
4. Coats
Pea coats, over coats, trench coats, it doesn’t matter which ones you get, just get a few.
They instantly add more style to your outfit, and I would know.
Every time I put on my camel coat or my black pea coat, my outfit instantly looked leveled up.
Also, it’s something I saw the Parisian women running around in, and they always look incredible!
5. Semi-Formal Might Have Been Their Creation
Parisian women are always ready!
Whether they have a quick meeting or errand to run, they’ll dress in such a way that’s always presentable yet comfortable.
Their effortless look is a little more sophisticated for casual, and just enough for formal.
6. Minimalistic Accessories
This one is a quick and simple tip.
A way to subtly show your good taste in jewelry is accessorizing minimally.
Let the necklace, earrings, or whatever you’re wearing, make an impact on your look.
7. It’s All About the Fit
Clothes that complement their body type are the ones they love.
This means they’re being more mindful and taking more time with their clothing choices.
So while it might be easy to go to the mall, not find what you’re looking for, and make a purchase based on the belief that you “have to get something” (I’ve so been here), you walk away and come back another week.
Wardrobes should be built out carefully over time.
Also, Parisian women are gonna be going to tailors to get their outfits to work well with their body type. So I’d definitely recommend doing that!
8. They’re Not a Walking Advertisement
A luxury that speaks for itself by the way it looks is what they’re going to choose.
For them, branded clothing isn’t important.
What matters is the way they look and the impression they leave. If it looks good and they like it, great, they’re gonna buy it.
It doesn’t matter if Instagram is telling them they need a $900 bag to be fashionable, if it’s not worth it, they ignore it.
