My mother and I are again from Paris, and the journey was the shot within the arm we each wanted. (Thanks for all of your recs!) I’m excited to jot down an extended recap in a pair days — together with the place we stayed and ate — however within the meantime, only for enjoyable, I wished to share a number of issues we noticed individuals sporting. Right here goes…
1. Not breaking information, however I seen once more what number of French ladies put on their hair windswept and bedhead-y, versus completely polished. Some humorous proof? Once I stopped brushing my hair midway by means of our journey, extra shopkeepers spoke to me in French and a minimum of three older French women approached me for instructions. (Finest three moments of my life lol.)
2. Jannelle lately wrote about fanny packs, and holy smokes, the sac banane is A Factor in Paris. Most gave the impression to be from the model Rive Droite, and the XL in army inexperienced slung over the chest seemed particularly cool.
3. Talking of inexperienced, the colour was in all places: blazers, shirts, sweaters, you identify it. I like how inexperienced reads as a impartial however feels a little bit extra enjoyable than black, navy or tan, don’t you?
4. As all the time, many individuals have been sporting sneakers, together with Veja, Adidas, Nike and Reebok, however New Stability was the model we seen most. (I additionally just like the low profile of this ivory pair.)
5. Pearl rings. In the course of the week, we frolicked quite a bit with my buddy’s buddy Cassi, who lives in Paris and wears a pearl gumball ring. I’m undecided if this can be a city-wide pattern, however I’m pointing it out regardless as a result of it was so attractive!
6. Many ladies wore belted jackets and coats (even puffers). Not simply traditional beige trenches — though we did see these — however many different colours, like inexperienced (plus), black and pink.
7. Chunky scarves on everybody, in all places, all the time and endlessly. They’re such a simple method to make a cold-weather outfit look particular. Comic story: On my approach residence, earlier than safety, the airport performed a particular video reminding individuals to take away their scarves — it confirmed an animated line drawing of a French man sporting a shawl after which the headscarf floated off him. That’s easy methods to do it!
Ideas? Would you put on any, or do you already? If you happen to reside in Paris, do these ring true?
P.S. Girls share their magnificence uniforms, and the weirdest greatest a part of journeys.
