Splash NewsIt's hard to argue that the French know what they're doing in terms of style. Classic and effortless, the well-known French-girl aesthetic is an unbeatable one. So it didn't surprise us too much when Emily Ratajkowski was spotted in New York City wearing one of Paris's most prevalent uniforms.
During a stroll through NYC's Tribeca neighborhood with her son Sylvester Apollo Bear, the supermodel and author of My Body wore the ultimate French-girl ensemble: a white T-shirt, a leather blazer, straight-leg vintage-wash jeans, and black boots. Making the look even more Parisian, she added a matte, red lip and tiny gold hoops. Minimal, cool, and ridiculously easy to mimic, EmRata's look was an obvious win.
To re-create the ensemble that Ratajkowski and countless Parisians frequent, you just need the four wardrobe staples ahead. And don't worry about finding them. We did that work for you.

Step 1: White T-Shirt

@basicstouchNo matter where you're going, if you put a blazer on top of a T-shirt and pair them with vintage jeans, you're going to be the best dressed one in the room. That's a fact.
A great, long-lasting tee doesn't have to cost you a lot.
Step 2: Leather Blazer

@camillecharriereA leather jacket has always been a great topper for those few months when it's too warm for a full-on coat and too cold for just a T-shirt. Making said jacket into a blazer just classes it up a bit.
This is vegan leather, but you'd never know it upon feeling it.
Step 3: Straight-Leg Jeans

@claireroseThough low-rise, baggy, and bootcut jeans are all anyone's talking about right now, the key to mastering the French fashion mindset is to ignore trends. Perhaps that's why everyone in Paris frequents always-in-style straight-leg denim.
Step 4: Black Boots

@pernilleteisbaekIf you're ever on the fence about what footwear is worth investing in, black ankle boots are a safe bet. They're reliable and versatile, so you really can't beat them.
If you're a square-toe fan, these are for you.
