DS STYLE GUIDE: WHAT TO WEAR IN PARIS
Paris, the city of lights, is renowned for its timeless style and fashion-forward culture. With its picturesque streets and iconic landmarks, it's no wonder that millions of visitors flock to the French capital each year. Whether you're strolling along the Seine, exploring the Louvre, or sipping coffee at a charming café, dressing appropriately for each occasion is essential. In this fashion guide, we'll explore what to wear in three popular locations in Paris to help you exude confidence and style.
The Champs-Élysées, a vibrant avenue stretching from the Arc de Triomphe to the Place de la Concorde, is a must-visit destination for shopping, dining, and people-watching. To blend in with the chic Parisian crowd, opt for a polished yet casual look. Start with a pair of tailored jeans or ankle-length pants in a neutral color like black or navy like high-wasted, wide-leg pants. Pair them with a classic striped shirt, a crisp white blouse, or a lightweight sweater. Add a touch of sophistication with a tailored blazer like this Andie Satin Blazer or a trench coat. Complete the outfit with comfortable flats or ankle boots, a crossbody bag, and a silk scarf for that quintessential Parisian flair.
Montmartre, with its bohemian charm and artistic ambiance, is a neighborhood beloved by locals and tourists alike. Known for its historic streets, the iconic Sacré-Cœur Basilica, and the lively Place du Tertre, Montmartre calls for a more relaxed and artistic wardrobe. Embrace your inner creative with a flowy midi dress in a vibrant floral pattern or a pastel shade. Layer it with a lightweight cardigan or a denim jacket for cooler days. Pair your dress with comfortable ballet flats or ankle boots. Accessorize with a wide-brimmed hat, a statement necklace, and a cute tote like Gourmet Love - Large Organic Tote Bag to carry your essentials while exploring the charming streets of Montmartre.
Le Marais, a trendy neighborhood with a mix of historical landmarks and contemporary boutiques, is a fashion-forward hub in Paris. This vibrant district calls for a fashionable yet edgy ensemble. Opt for a pair of tailored trousers or sequined pants like the Louisa Pants or a skirt with a bold print, such as leopard or plaid. Pair it with a sleek blouse or a graphic tee proclaiming your favorite things such as the Gourmet Love T-Shirt! Layer with a leather or denim jacket for an added touch of coolness. Complete your look with stylish ankle boots or sneakers and a structured handbag. Don't forget to accessorize with statement earrings like these from Anne Klein or a chunky bracelet to elevate your style game while exploring the fashionable streets of Le Marais.
Paris weather can be unpredictable, even in Saint Germaine. Be prepared for any climate by incorporating stylish layers into your outfits. Lightweight jackets, trench coats, or stylish cardigans, or a mix of all three like this long-sleeved lapel sweater jacket, are perfect choices to layer over your ensemble. Opt for neutral tones or classic patterns that seamlessly blend with your overall look. This way, you can easily adapt to changing weather conditions while maintaining your fashion-forward appearance. We also like the idea of adding a fun graphic t-shirt like our Gourmet Love Tee for some chic and sophisticated playfulness.
Don’t forget to accessorize! Dara Senders, known for her attention to detail, understands the importance of selecting the perfect accessories. Consider adding a wide-brimmed hat, a designer handbag, or a delicate scarf like the Caroline Pashmina to elevate your look. Parisians are known for their impeccable taste in accessories, so don't be afraid to experiment and add a touch of your personal style to your outfit.
Paris is a city that effortlessly blends elegance, style, and a touch of nonchalant charm. When it comes to dressing for the iconic locations of the Champs-Élysées, Montmartre, Le Marais, and Saint Germaine, embracing the Parisian aesthetic is key. Remember to prioritize comfort without compromising on style. Whether you're savoring a croissant at a café or admiring the beauty of the Eiffel Tower, dressing the part will ensure you feel confident and ready to take on the city's fashion scene. So, pack your suitcase with chic essentials, embrace your inner fashionista, and let Paris be your runway!
