French Fancy


Earlier today, myself and my friend, Tara, were talking about French women and how they are unbelieveably chic at all times. We tried to dissect how they can look so good whilst being normal people with real lives! We surmised that it comes down to one word; Control. They have a defined style and colour palette and they stick to it, they eat and drink everything they fancy but in small amounts, they spend their money on great 'pieces' rather than on seasonal disposable fashion. They have it sussed and we love it!
So seeing as I've always had a thing about Paris (who doesn't!) I've put together these pictures to represent the elements of French style to inspire me to dress and behave more like a French woman.... call it my half year resolution!

Smokey eyes and statement earrings...

Red lips with bare eyes...

Needs no introduction!

Perfect straight legged pants with chic flats...

The LBD... thanks to Coco for introducing this to the world...

The stripey top...


Only French women can make leather trousers and leopard print look chic!

The street style photographer Garance Dore looking effortless...

Lot's of black, but in varied textures and shapes...

Even French babies are chic...

The smell of French elegance...
