I’ve always loved french style, it’s so classy, simple, comfortable and appears effortless. To share my love of french style with you, I thought I’d make this week’s blog post all about french summer style essentials to try this season. I hope you enjoy it and find some style inspiration for the warmer months ahead.

Clothing
A common misconception about summer fashion is that you have to compromise your style for comfort and feeling cool in the heat, and vice versa. But in actual fact, if you carefully choose fabrics, cuts of clothing and colours that are breathable, comfortable, soft and loose; you can look stylish and feel comfortable and cool (and very french!). I’d recommend soft organic cottons, linens, blouses that are breathable, skirts vs. shorts, and comfortable footwear. Follow these tips and you’re well on your way to looking oh so chic and french this summer! 🙂

Accessories
French style always looks refined and effortlessly cool, and I believe you can recreate this iconic style through being thoughtful and measured with your accessories. These little details and touches of colour don’t have to be very expensive to look elegant, in fact – I’d pay close attention to the fabrics used, quality and colours… and always remember the saying “less is more”.
