No matter your personal style preference, fashion lovers of any persuasion can probably all agree on one thing: French people are undeniably chic. It's probably no surprise that our FYP on TikTok routinely serves up style inspiration from Paris—that's where we first came across Sophie and her style-savvy brood.
The 42-year-old model, image consultant, and mother of three routinely posts her family's "look du jour" on TikTok, and despite speaking very rudimentary French, we have spent hours scrolling through her sweet videos. Imagine our surprise when we discovered just how many of the excellent everyday items in their wardrobes came straight from Zara.
Keep scrolling to check out our favorite TikToks featuring the whole family, then browse the affordable, endlessly wearable wardrobe basics from Zara that we've spotted on @MademoiselleSoph's feed. Whether you're shopping for yourself or in search of something even a Gen Zer will love, Zara's got it covered this season. The only thing missing is that highly covetable hot-pink Chanel handbag.

A timeless wool coat is essential for every family member.
Before temperatures get too cold, try adding a lightweight felt topcoat into the mix.
Try layering a cropped knit over a cozy base layer.
Depending on the material, a sweater can double as a blazer or jacket.
Oversize scarves are back and bigger than ever.
A pleated skirt can work for anyone, depending on how it's styled.
There's no such thing as too many Oxford shirts, oui?
