I Just Got Back From Paris—30 Fashion and Beauty Picks That Ooze French-Girl Vibes
Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
I’m one of those people who have spent their whole lives dreaming of Paris. For some of us who long for adventures in different cities, it’s New York or London, but for me, I’ve always been drawn to the romantic, luxurious, fashionable City of Lights (and baguettes). I just recently got the opportunity to take my first journey to my dream city, and it’s safe to say I have turned my little Parisian getaway into my entire personality at this point.
With that being said, I created the ultimate chic French-woman-inspired shopping list of picks I saw while I was in Paris, beauty items from luxury French houses, and even some picks I brought with me on my trip. I have covered all of the bases. From the perfect shade of red Chanel lipstick to the exact striped sweater I’m wearing above (which is now on sale), these 30 chic fashion and beauty items just scream chic Parisian.
Keep scrolling to take a look at my list.
The striped sweater I'm wearing in the imagery of this article is on sale.
My next Reformation buy will include these knee-high boots. I wore a different Ref pair around Paris and loved them, so I'm convinced I need these, too.
The red lipstick I'm convinced every French woman has in her handbag.
This dress is called The Little Lady Dress, and I just find that so adorable and fitting.
I know this coat is a little pricey, but look how pretty it is.
Just add a good pair of jeans and loafers.
I saw this bag at Maje's Paris Fashion Week presentation, and I can't stop thinking about it.
This bouclé-style sweaterdress has French girl written all over it.
Because we all need a little touch of Christian Dior on us, even if it's just a pocket-size balm.
Every stylish French woman has one of these in her closet.
I'd snag this YSL Beauty liquid blush while it's on sale.
Maje knows what French girls (and those of us who want to dress like them) like.
I saw so many chic Parisian women styling blazers in such an elevated way that I think they're back for 2024.
I just got my hands on this minidress. I may even wear it this weekend.
While French-girl glam is usually minimal, long lashes are a nonnegotiable.
