How To Master The French Girl Style In 5 Ways

No matter what occasion, French women always seem like they have everything together; always having that je ne sais quoi that we may never understand. But what makes every French girl look effortlessly cool and at the same time, alluringly sexy? It may be all about the attitude but there are unspoken rules these eternally chic women follow. And because we’re obsessed with all things French— especially their style— we’ve decoded the 5 ways in mastering the art of French-girl style.

1. Stock up on the basics.French women live in basic tees, little black dresses, white button-downs, tailored pants, and black pumps. They never wear anything too flashy and they don’t give in to trends. Classic pieces are their go-to wardrobe pieces and they invest in quality items that will stand the test of time. Purchase at least 10 basic items in you closet that go with everything else you own.

2. Stick to neutrals but don’t be afraid of a pop of color.Subtlety is their game. The French love their whites, blacks, navies and their browns, but they’re not afraid to wear a pop of color. Be it on their lips, or an accessory, they love a statement piece that adds just the right amount of drama.

3. Stylish flats are your best friend.They refuse to walk on cobblestones in heels 24/7 so a stylish pair of flats are always in hand. Whether it’s Oxfords, loafers, or embellished flats, find a dressy pair that will add a dash of personality to any outfit.

4. Embrace the “undone” look.The “I woke up like this” mantra is the ultimate secret to French-girl chic. They like things a little off-kilter because perfection is not in their DNA. That barely there, au naturel look is their daily dose of imperfection. Add tousled, bed hair to the no-makeup makeup look and you’re good to go.

5. Less is more.Style-wise, they aren’t the biggest risk-takers. They don’t like to look overdone so they like to wear things on the safe side because they know it works. Whether it comes to beauty or their choice of accessories, less is always more. Just like what Coco Chanel said, “Before you leave the house, look in the mirror and remove one accessory.”

Wonderful Zipper Bag Idea – DIY

In creating this lovely purse that is woven out of zippers, the bags that are often seen in the airport gift shops were the main point of inspiration. You can make your own using the colors shown or any combination that works best for your outfits.

You will need:
– zippers in different colors;
– glue;
– pins;
– scissors.

First, on a flat surface, lay out and weave the zippers according to the images shown. Get the sides of the zippers together and secure them temporarily by pinning them. Starting from the bottom corner, glue the ends of all the zippers making sure you maintain a consistent pattern of the woven by trimming off the ends. When the bottom part is woven and glued you can take off the pins and trim the end of each zipper, weave in the ends on the top and the raw edges under a vertical zipper. Next, wrap the top ends of the vertical zipper’s margins over the top horizontal zipper and glue. Afterwards, take two zippers, cut them about 10” and glue them to the underneath top edge of the tote. To finish the bag, cover up all raw ends by taking any left scraps of zippers and glue them to the zippers around the inside guideline of the tote. Have fun!

As fashion is ever evolving, androgynous dressing becomes a more widespread craze. From boyfriend jeans to oversized button-downs, stylish girls from around the world are ditching their floral dresses and ballerina skirts for the gender-neutral look.

Embrace the trend and take your outfit up a notch with a few of these tricks and tips.

1. Overalls are versatile. You can pair them with a crop top or pullover.

2. Look sleek and sharp with a perfectly tailored suit and a pair of pumps.
