The 6 Winter Trends This Parisian Mom Borrows From Her Daughters
I'm back again with everyone's favorite French family trio: Elisabeth Bento and her daughters Tamara and Salomé Mory. You might recall that I previously tapped Elizabeth for her fall and spring shopping recs, and now she's graciously offered up her favorite winter trends that she and her influencer daughters all are loving right now.
First up, Elisabeth is keen on borrowing Tamara's double-breasted military-inspired coat by Nanushka, which is certainly a trend that any generation can wear. (You can bet I found you a more affordable version—you're welcome.) Scroll down to shop all six trends that the Parisian mother-daughter trio is wearing for winter.
1. Double-Breasted Coats
"I am in love with Tamara’s double-breasted coat from Nanushka, so I actually borrow it from her regularly. I love wearing it with basic jeans and a cashmere sweater underneath, plus some boots."
2. Cropped Cardigans
"The three of us got ourselves pastel color cardigans from Rouje, and we switch colors. Personally, I live in the white one. It’s one of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe!"
3. Teddy Jackets and Coats
"This season, we are wearing shearling teddy jackets and coats for a comfy look. I have both a real-shearling version (Toteme) and a faux-fur version (Petite Mendigote), while Tamara got a Rouje jacket. These pieces are perfect because they keep you warm and yet so stylish."
On Elisabeth: Petite Mendigote Teddy Jacket ($176)
4. Checked Blazers
"The essential masculin/feminin wardrobe piece has always been part of our wardrobes in black or camel. This season, Salomé got one from Filippa Hägg, and I got a plaid version from Rouje. Perfect to wear with blue denim."
5. Striped Sweaters
"The classic marinière, as we call it in French, is more popular than ever, so personally I invested in a beautiful turtleneck from Toteme. And the girls are wearing tanks and long-sleeve T-shirts from Réalisation and Frame."
6. Ballet Flats
"We are all back to the classic ballerinas from Chanel. Salomé has had hers in her closet for a while, and I got a new pair of tweed slingback flats to get a similar but slightly different look."
Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
