I Found the J.Crew, Abercrombie, and H&M Items a French Woman Would Be Into

French style is highly coveted, including by the editors at Who What Wear, as it is often associated with words like chic and effortless. When it comes to covering Parisian fashion, it's the effortlessly elegant staples, such as elevated basics, that are most popular among this style set. In fact, there are three stores that offer a range of chic items that would likely appeal to a French girl: J.Crew, Abercrombie & Fitch, and H&M.
I believe a woman in Paris would greatly appreciate the selections I recently discovered at these stores, as they seamlessly blend into a low-key yet forward wardrobe. I'm referring to items like relaxed tailoring that can be paired with anything from flats to sneakers, as well as pretty skirts that effortlessly pair with a tank and sandals. Basic essentials like simple tees and straight-leg jeans also make the cut.
Keep scrolling to check out the items I think a French girl would love from J.Crew, Abercrombie, and H&M.
