What is it about the Parisian girl that seems so chic and modern? Maybe it’s her way of playing it simple yet sophisticated. This style is great for the working girl or the girl on the go that doesn’t have time to search through her endless patterned dresses trying to accessories them, only to discover the look is “too much”. When dressing the Parisian style less is always more. Take it from our favorite fashion icon Audrey Hepburn in the 1957 movie Funny Face. With her sleek, fitted, black beatnik top and her black Capri pants, she’s somehow been able to grace the ads of GAP in that ensemble 40 years later!
Keep an eye out for these independent ladies in style to stay inspired by their modern Parisian looks: Actress and singer/songwriter Charlotte Gainsbourg. French, fashion bloggers and designers Betty from Blog De Betty and Alix The Cherry Blossom Girl. Also UK journalist Alexa Chung is one to follow with her new fashion line being heavily influenced by horizontal stripes, blazers and sweaters.
To get the look, keep your color pallet very simple. Black, white, neutral tones and gray. Must haves are a stripped pattern, nautical tee, a dark colored blazer, fitted, cotton pant or jeans and if you’re really serious about it, a gorgeous trench coat. Dressing up requires the most famous “little black dress” and add some flirty-ness to it with a bow in the hair like Zooey deschanel. Keep the hair and make-up natural and don’t be late for your date at La boutique de Cafe.
