10 Affordable Items I Spotted on the Paris Street Style Scene
During fashion month, I look to the runways to spot trends that will be popping up in six months, but I also keep an eye on what fashion insiders are wearing to the shows. Those looks often end up inspiring my personal purchases since they distill the best of what’s trending into wearable looks.
