Classic parisian style is all about minimalism, sophistication, and simplicity. Keep to a neutral palette—think black, white, and beige. Your pieces should be a mix of structured and relaxed pieces. So, ditch your favorite baggy graphic sweater and jeans for this trip.
MIDI OR MAXI DRESS:
A dress is hands-down one of the easiest things to throw on while traveling. Just slip it on and head out the door. It’s comfy, breezy, and always looks good in photos. Go with a solid color for a classic look or pick a fun print to switch things up. Toss on a cardigan for those cooler evenings, and you’re good to go. To dress it up, you can switch to a pair of heels.
POPLIN SKIRTS:
Poplin skirts have been trending this year — they’re super easy to dress up or down, which makes them a great go-to for any travel capsule. And if you find one with pockets? Even better.
TAILORED SHORTS:
Choose a tailored linen-blend short for a polished and breathable look during warmer months. Pair it with lightweight layers to stay comfortable and stylish all day long.
ANKLE WIDE-LEG JEANS:
A pair of ankle-length wide-leg jeans offers a polished yet casual vibe—perfect if you want to look put-together without feeling overdressed throughout your trip. Depending on the season, opt for a light blue wash in spring or summer, or a dark wash for a more refined look in fall and winter.
STRIPED SHIRT:
Depending on your preference, pack an oversized or fitted striped button down for a relaxed/polished look.
SHORT CARDIGAN:
If you’re traveling during warmer months, a short cardigan will act as your light layering piece. Wear it over your shoulders during the day for a cute photo-op 🙂
LINEN VEST:
A tailored vest will be one of your chic, dressy tops for your outfits.
CAMI/TANK:
