Out of all of the trends out there that the internet and fashion set love (and hate) Parisian style, or the French-girl aesthetic, is one that not only is basically universally adored but also stands the test of time. No matter what, we’re never going to stop wanting to dress like a chic Parisian woman running from the Louvre Museum to a dinner date to the farmers market the next morning. As summer and spring are approaching and I’m deciding which aesthetic to lean into for the warmer months of 2024, French-girl style was the obvious choice for me.
