Like most of our readers, I am a forever fan of the French aesthetic. There’s something so satisfying about seeing otherwise simple basics given the effortless treatment that Parisians are known for. It’s inspired many of my looks, to say the least, and sparked my avid interest in creating a wardrobe filled with the classic and elevated basics stylish French women are known for.
One store that always offers a great selection of pieces essential to Parisian style? Nordstrom. During my latest perusal of the site, I put together a roundup of 30 picks perfect for emulating the chicest French outfits that grace our social feeds.
