39 Fabulous French Street Style Looks ...

I've always been obsessed with French street style, and my upcoming Paris honeymoon has me even more obsessed. French women dress with a confidence, an eye, an attention to detail, and a certain insouciance that makes them stand out. Because the most fashionable women know the value of classic pieces that fit beautifully, the classic French street style is easy to imitate even if you don't have a designer or couture budget. Most of all, to me, French women prove that the size of your pants and your age don't matter. As long as you own what you wear and choose timeless pieces, you'll look amazing. How many of these looks would you own?

1 All Black

As you'll see, wearing black is a common theme in French street style, because it's flattering, it's slimming, it goes with everything, and it's classic. Some tailored trousers, a simple but beautiful top, and some killer shoes are all you need.

Black is a timeless color that has been embraced by fashion lovers around the world. It is a classic color that is flattering and slimming. According to French street style, black is the go-to color to achieve a chic and stylish look. French street style is known for its sophisticated and effortless looks, which can be achieved by wearing black trousers, a top, and stylish shoes.

Black is a versatile color that pairs well with any other color. It is also a great color for layering, as it can easily be combined with other pieces in your wardrobe. French street style often incorporates layering, which can be achieved by wearing a black top over a white shirt, or a black blazer over a dress.

The French street style look can be dressed up or dressed down. For a casual look, you can pair black trousers with a white t-shirt and sneakers. For a more formal look, you can wear black trousers with a blouse and a pair of heels.

Black is also a great color for accessories. A black belt, handbag, or pair of sunglasses can instantly elevate any outfit. French street style often includes a statement accessory, such as a chunky necklace or a colorful scarf.

That might be personal opinion, but that skirt is the world and her shoulders in that top are like accessories all their own. Also, never be afraid to wear a stylish hat in France – especially in Paris.

All black ensembles work with all sorts of outfits. Long skirts and flats will serve you well, and you can even channel your inner badass with a leather (or leather-look) jacket!

12 Shoulders Back

I couldn't resist this, because a., the hat; 2., the flattering fit; c., the boots; and 4., she's a redhead (sorry, sorry, Heather, really, I'm sorry!). But seriously, this whole ensemble is just fierce. It's ridiculous.

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

Why do every photo posted on here always have to be of women who are extremely skinny? I have nothing against women who are that size, but I Ike to see real women. What the majority of the world actually looks like, not the small percentage that are that thin.

I always find it strange when people say skinny women aren't "real women". Every woman, regardless of size, is a real woman. We have to stop basing someone's worth as a woman simply based on their size.

I wish there had been more full figured women as well. It's great to know how amazing the skinny women look too but as a full figured woman, it just kinda sucked not seeing any full figured women in this article. Full figured women can rock clothes too, ya know ? :/

I like most of the styles on this post, but stripe-tastic is laughable. Shortening of those ridiculously long sleeves might give this look a chance. As it is, she looks like she stole her boyfriend's prison shirt. Are we not supposed to have hands?
