Last week I did a post about French style secrets and this week I wanted to make it even easier for you and give you 7 easy french outfit formulas to copy for a chic, French look. Get dressed and look great. No thinking required!
7 French Outfit Formulas You Can Copy
1. jeans + tee + blazer + loafers + gold accessories Easy to wear and put together. Everything in this outfit is pretty basic, but the blazer takes it from casual to polished!
2. polka dot blouse + trousers + block heels Classic but not boring, thanks to the polka dots. Worn with the blouse tucked in makes it look more put together. Great for the office or work meetings!
3. cropped jeans + front tie top + espadrilles + oval sunglasses + straw bag Tuck this look away for the summer because this is going to be your stylish go-to. If you get anything for summer to look like a French girl, it should be the espadrilles! Related: The Surprising Person to Get All Your French Inspo From
4. ankle pants + turtleneck + flats + pearl earrings Chic and simple. Turtlenecks are not outdated, but classic. They add a polished feel to any look and work great for fall, winter, and any office looks!
5. skinny jeans + striped top + blazer + silk scarf + gold band + ballet flats A classic look. If you think stripes and a scarf are a little cliche, experiment on making it fresh by how you tie your scarf!
6. black skinny jeans + silk top + blazer + otk boots Something dark, something loose, and something structured. Remember that formula because those elements make for a great go-to look!
7. leather pants + lightweight sweater + trench coat + ankle boots + sunglasses A French way to wear the trench coat while taking a break from the stripes. Plus, no Parisian wardrobe is complete without a cashmere sweater!
You don’t need a baguette, a beret, and a red lip to dress like the French. Well, the red lip won’t hurt! But the French have mastered less is more and because of their confidence and the way they carry themselves, a simple outfit is never boring.
