I'm Hung Up on Parisian Style, and These Picks From Nordstrom Nail the Look
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. The best part is most of the pieces come in under $100. Keep scrolling to shop for everything from striped tops to sleek dresses, practical jackets, and much more.
This striped sweater tank goes with everything from denim to trousers to skirts.
I'll always say yes to a fresh new white button-down.
Cropped black jeans go with just about everything.
Espadrille wedges are selling out everywhere this season.
