There are some essentials that define the classic, effortlessly chic style of French women. Walk the streets of Paris (or any city or town in France, for that matter), and you’ll see some version of these pieces on repeat. Think traditional, but with a twist, like the looks we’ve pulled together for you here. They may be trending now, but they’ll be a staple of your wardrobe for years to come. Combine these with some simple gold jewelry, bold sunglasses, and a nonchalant toss of your tousled hair and you’re good to go.
