To master effortless Parisian style—especially in the dead of winter—your wardrobe should come down to a handful of neutral basics made for layering. Washington Sports Teams Logo Nationals, Redskins, Capitals And Wizards Shirt Of course, a pop of color or a splashy print is common, but these special pieces never take away from the relaxed, everyday look of French ease. Instead, they merely accent the moment. Inspired by the latest crop of street style from Paris-based fashion savants and content creators, I narrowed in on the staple items that seem to go a long way when it comes to pulling off a variety of aesthetics, but all with the same French attitude. Ahead, you’ll find unique ways to layer socks and ballet flats, interesting methods for balancing proportions (think an oversize button-down draped over a checked miniskirt with patent slingbacks), and tailored workwear that feels equal parts sophisticated and playful, rather than stuffy. My top selects for pulling off the Parisian look are all classic enough to remain closet mainstays for a while. And they’re well-priced, so you can pick up more than just one or two of these fresh must-haves that are bound to soar to the top of your wish list. For winter, ballerina flats are easy for getting around and helps to maximize comfort. A Mary-Jane silhouette will allow for a pop of color when you choose thin mesh socks in cherry red. Fold the hem of your denim to draw attention to the shoe moment, and up top, tuck a printed silk scarf into your collar to keep your neck warm. Other minimalist basics to finish off this look include a long wool coat and shopping tote in neutral shades.

You don’t turn to a style guru like Ellen V. Lora when you’re seeking advice on playing by “the rules.” Washington Sports Teams Logo Nationals, Redskins, Capitals And Wizards Shirt As you’ll know if you’re part of her army of Instagram followers, the Los Angeles–based creative director and blogger behind Pure EVL is just as likely to be spotted in a neon-lime bomber as she is a floaty floral dress, and we’re not sure we’ll ever match her knack for effortlessly mixing unlike prints (though rest assured we’ll never stop trying). But if you’re looking to make getting dressed in the morning, well, fun again, Lora’s exactly who you want to talk to. “I’m that girl who will wear her faux-fur coat in the spring,” she tells us, reassuring us that we actually don’t have to banish the entirety of our winter wardrobes to the land beyond the wall (aka the back of our closets) as warmer weather edges its way into the forecast. We implored the blogger to turn her attention to H&M’s fittingly bold new Divided collection, and then we stepped back to let her work her magic… Lora’s retro-inspired spring take on the Canadian tuxedo has us itching for festival season: Expect to see us wearing this as we edge toward the stage to catch headlining acts all spring and summer long. The blogger’s relaxed double-denim look feels very ’70s and very rock ’n’ roll, which makes perfect sense, given that Lora cites Bianca Jagger as one of her biggest style influences. “She wore the clothes—the clothes didn’t wear her,” the blogger says of the icon whose notable fashion moments include the off-the-shoulder dress she wore while riding a horse(!) into Studio 54 and the plunging blazer–and–high-waisted skirt combo she sported while wedding the lead singer of The Rolling Stones.
