the french style is often characterized by an aesthetic that is understated, yet elegant. the emphasis is on looking well put together without looking like too much effort has been put into it. this includes classic pieces, minimalist designs, and neutral color palettes that can be mixed and matched effortlessly. it also favors timeless pieces over fast fashion. items like a well-fitted trench coat, a breton striped shirt or a little black dress never go out of style and can be worn for many years, which is in line with the principles of sustainable fashion. it pays close attention to detail, emphasizes quality over quantity, and incorporates a sense of confidence, nonchalance, and a focus on the enjoyment of life, which is inherently attractive.
here are my top 5 favorites:
1. WHITE JEANS
@leiasfez + @jeannedamas + @parisiensinparis
while white jeans are often associated with spring and summer, they can be worn all year round. they look great with striped shirts, trench coats and tailored blazers, or with a casual t-shirt.

2. BLAZER
@audreyafs + @sabinasocol + @annelauremais
blazers are a cornerstone of french fashion, valued for their versatility, sophistication, and ability to elevate almost any outfit. the blazer works for all occasions, over a summer dress for cooler evenings, with jeans or more professionally with tailored pants.

3. RED
@melodievaxelaire + @chloelecareux + @gabriellecaunesil
we all know that french style favors a neutral color palette. in fact, there's nothing like having black, white, gray, beige or brown as key pieces to build an elegant and easy-to-combine wardrobe. but if you want to add color... then red it is.

4. BALLET SHOES
@annelauremais + @camillecharriere + @eleonoretoulin
a classic and timeless design that will never go out of style, the ballet flat is easy to wear with a wide range of outfits and are comfortable while still looking polished.

5. SILVER JEWELRY
@jeannedamas + @clairerose + @camillecharriere
yes, silver jewelry has indeed become a noticeable trend among french influencers. while french style has traditionally leaned towards gold jewelry for its timeless and classic appeal, silver jewelry is making a strong comeback.
silver jewelry is versatile and can be worn with both casual and formal outfits. it pairs beautifully with the neutral and cool tones that are staples in many french wardrobes and is the perfect tone for a statement piece.
