As a lover of fashion, I have always dreamed about visiting Paris. The great food, amazing museums, and next-level fashion have always seemed so romantic to me. Unfortunately, I've never been to Paris, but that hasn't stopped my growing obsession with Parisian street style. The French fashion girls just seem to get it. They've mastered the art of being casualy chic and effortlessly cool—a vibe I'm always going for. While looking at my favourite French influencers and other sources of fashion inspiration, I noticed six items that could help me achieve the French-girl aesthetic. Keep scrolling to see the items that are helping me achieve Parisian style.
Loose Trousers
Loose trousers are a cool-girl wardrobe staple. They have this sophisticated yet casual vibe to them and can be styled in so many ways, making them not only a personal favourite but also extremely versatile.
