There's a reason why I consistently turn to Parisians for outfit inspiration. They just get it with that effortless approach to style. (You know, the whole je ne sais quoi thing.) While people in Paris wear various items, many go-to pieces are elevated basics because they're versatile, chic, and easy to style—similar to the outfits featured above. Three retailers that stock a range of these types of finds? Shopbop, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Nordstrom.
On that note, I scrolled through the sites of each of these stores to pull out items I think fit within that Parisian aesthetic. Below, you'll find a range of no-fuss pieces that I could totally see in a French woman's wardrobe, including elegant shirting, cool denim silhouettes, stylish flats, and so much more.
