"Parisienne style is easy if you follow this simple rule: banish "occasion dressing." The quintessential French outfit can take you from brunch to work, school drop-off to birthday drinks, all in one effortless look. It's a capsule wardrobe suitable for any time, place, or occasion, made up of timeless classics-a good-quality blazer, navy cashmere, smart shoes, and minimal jewelry. Never seasonal or logo-ed, just smart, polished, and, of course, oh-so chic."
""I wear, more or less, the same things as a kind of uniform every day. A wrap dress, like our iconic Gabin dress, is something you can wear on any occasion-it's always good to have a multifunctional dress like this. Jeans are an important staple in my wardrobe, so high-waisted jeans are essential. A men's style jacket (like the Jacques by Rouje), slip dresses (particularly for summer), a trench coat (I have a beautiful Burberry vintage one), and ankle boots are all essential.""
Parisienne style rejects occasion-specific dressing in favor of a capsule wardrobe of timeless, multifunctional pieces that transition from day to night. Staples include a good-quality blazer, navy cashmere, smart shoes, minimal jewelry, wrap dresses, high-waisted jeans, a men’s-style jacket, slip dresses, a trench coat and ankle boots. Clothing should be non-seasonal and free of visible logos, with simple, flattering shapes and a uniform-like approach to daily dressing. Sweaters are often bought a size larger to create a relaxed tuck. The overall effect is smart, polished, and effortlessly chic across varied activities.
