6 Chic Outfit Ideas Borrowed Straight From the Streets of Paris

Us editors at Who What Wear routinely turn to the Parisian set when we’re looking for simple and chic outfit ideas. It’s no secret that we hold the belief that the "je ne sais quoi” approach to style is just so coveted. On that note, after scrolling through the Instagram feeds of some of our favorite influencers based in Paris, we uncovered a smattering of top-notch outfit posts. And yes, you’re going to find some of the standouts below for inspiration.
Below you’ll find six chic outfit ideas that are borrowed straight from the streets of Paris. You’ll notice that while each ensemble is unique in its own right, every look has that effortless feel that’s so desirable. There are also shopping recommendations for each look if you want to add something new to your wardrobe.
This look is classic yet modern with the oversize blazer; sweater draped around the shoulders (an easy way to elevate a look); relaxed jeans; and loafers.
One word: Chic. The longline turtleneck with the belt around it is so forward, especially teamed with the skirt.
A trench will take any look to the next level. The striped top, wide-leg trousers, and sneakers are also a wonderful combo here.
Talk about elegant. The white blouse tucked into the maxi skirt is absolutely stunning.
This outfit is high-concept-feeling yet easy featuring a blouse and cool skirt.
The denim-on-denim vibe is where it’s at. Just add fun accessories and you’re set.
