As the title of this article suggests, I just got back from Paris, and as you'd expect, my mind is full of fashion inspiration. After five days in the French capital, my fashion-editor senses were tingling with the incredible winter trends I spotted on the street, from funnel-neck coats to timeless cape silhouettes. Paris gave me a newfound appreciation for everything I can experiment with in my closet over the next few months, including color trends. While you'd think the French only stick to all-black everything throughout the colder months, I was shocked to see the city vibrant and full of color in a chic, understated Parisian way.
Scroll below to see all of the Paris color trends—including wine and winter white—taking over the streets of the French city, from Le Marais to Saint-Germain-des-Prés.
Ivory
How to wear: Opt for an ivory coat, tights, and sleek sandals.
Cheetah Print
How to wear: A fluffy cheetah coat or cropped jacket is ideal in combination with your go-to white tee and favorite jeans.
Denim Blue
How to wear: A denim-on-denim look feels chic, especially when styled right. Go for a denim trench and long denim maxi skirt with sleek leather boots.
Olive Green
How to wear: Wear an olive-green jacket in lieu of a black one with your go-to basic outfit, like a neutral sweater and black pleated trousers or light-wash jeans.
Mocha Brown
How to wear: A simple wool mocha coat paired with tonal tights and knee-high boots is incredibly chic for any winter occasion.
Bordeaux
How to wear: Instead of cherry-red accents via last year's massive color trend, go for darker, moodier wine in the form of accent sweaters, bags, socks, and sneakers.
All-Black Everything
How to wear: Parisians love their black. Wear it all together for a quintessentially French ensemble of black boots, a black skirt, and a slouchy black turtleneck.
