We're nearly halfway through September, the weather is starting to turn, and the cardigans are coming out. All signs point to the fact that fall's official start is nearly upon us. If you ask a fashion person, though, they'll tell you that the industry's favorite season began the day after Labor Day. While I have been busy shifting my closet to reflect the current climate as well as what's to come and unearthing countless oldie-but-goodie pieces while at it, I can't help but want to add some 2024-worthy newness to my wardrobe.
My next thought would normally be where to even begin, but I already know. I just asked myself, What would French women wear? Then, I took it one step further by challenging myself to curate the aforementioned selection from Nordstrom and under $100 because, of course, why not?
It's the shade of blue but also so much more for me.
I need it.
I love the shape of the toe and the fact that they're satin.
You'll wear it every day.
I'm taking notes on the styling.
The shape is so good.
A forever piece.
A must.
French women know that a little lace always adds to a look.
Simple yet effective.
Just add it to all your outfits.
The most elegant shape.
A pop of color is always a good idea.
They just look right.
As you may have heard, big bags are back.
I just might buy it right now.
They do love a sheer moment too.
I love how it looks worn-in.
There's no such thing as too many cardigans.
Think about how Sylvie from Emily in Paris would wear this, and that's how you should style it.
Love a good miniskirt.
Yes, we are still into Mary Jane flats.
Oversize is key.
Everyone needs an LBD to fall back on.
Because fall weddings are coming.
Leopard print is forever.
Obsessed.
I'd love to see them with sneakers.
These would do the trick!
Wear this with anything from jeans to skirts.
They had me at bias cut.
Can't go wrong.
Chic.
If you're going to buy one color this season, let it be burgundy.
You'll use these for years and years.
