Everyone in my friend group, including myself, gravitates toward Parisian style. You know, that "je ne sais quoi" approach to fashion that's effortless and no-fuss. While French people wear a variety of different items, the fashion set often gravitates toward elevated basics that are polished, chic, and easy to style. I'm referring to items like classic button-down shirts, suiting, pretty skirts, and more.
I should also note that Nordstrom happens to be one of the go-to stores for those in my inner circle. And yes, there's a smattering of pieces in the new-arrivals section that lean into the Parisian aesthetic. Below, you'll uncover a range of the items (along with others I love) that I sent to my friends for winter shopping inspiration.
