Try as I might, I don't think anyone will be mistaking me for a French girl anytime soon. But will that stop me from taking style cues from the best dressed women in Paris? Absolutely not. When I was recently browsing H&M's new-arrival section, I came across the perfect plaid blazer with an incredibly affordable price tag that instantly reminded me of French style. So obviously, I had to share it with you.
H&M's new blazer is a steal at $35 and looks very similar to versions worn by Jeanne Damas, Sabina Socol, and other Parisian influencers I know you all love to follow on the 'gram. Scroll down to shop the blazer that will inevitably sell out and see how women are styling the wardrobe staple in the City of Light.
