French style is often synonymous with words like effortless and chic. So unsurprisingly, uncovering pieces that are in line with that elegant, pared-down aesthetic is often of interest to many. And that includes one of my dear friends. She's always trying to emulate that French style. On that note, given that Nordstrom consistently stocks a range of items to suit a variety of styles, there's undoubtedly a smattering of finds that could be approved by Parisians. And yes, I took a scroll through the new arrivals to pull out an edit of pieces I think my friend would love.
I went through the Instagram accounts of French style-setters and perused other French style stories to identify pieces Parisians wear (ahem, cinched-in blazers and relaxed button-down shirts). The curation below encompasses these types of items.
