I Live in NYC But Love Parisian Style—30 Fall Finds I'm Buying First
It’s no secret that when it comes to looking chic, the French basically wrote the book on it. Actually, I’m pretty sure they actually did write the book on it. Unfortunately, I have never been to France, but I have never let that stop me when it comes to re-creating stylish looks from my favorite French influencers and cosplaying as a stylish Parisian running from the Louvre to a darling cafe. This fall, I’m committed to looking as stylish as ever, which naturally led me down a rabbit hole of outfit inspiration. Most of the inspiration I was finding was imagery of chic French women pairing denim with ballet flats and trench coats, using pops of red, and styling cashmere sweaters in the absolute chicest way possible. I took to Reformation, H&M, and Shopbop to help me on my pursuit of the chicest French girl–approved pieces on the market and found 30 that stood out among the rest.
Keep scrolling to see which 30 Parisian-inspired picks I’m eyeing for fall.
If you're on the hunt for the perfect cardigan that doubles as a pop of red, look no further.
This dress is definitely hanging in the closet of a stylish French girl as we speak.
A good trench is the first place to start when shopping for a French vibe for fall.
The Mason Pant is a fan favorite for sure, and this gray colorway looks so expensive.
