The term "mariniĆØre" was initially used to designate the knitwear worn by sailors under their smocks. In 1858 a decree allows the Navy to introduce "knitting" in the official list of their outfits. This knit is characterized by its blue and white str...

I love this brand. It has every thing you need to add to your wardrobe to look like the quintessential French woman. A nice, soft white t-shirt is a piece that you can use to layer under blazers, sweaters, or wear it on its own. Add a scarf, set of p...

All you need is a black blazer to add a bit of ā€œje ne sais quoisā€ to your polished outfit. Clearly you can find a black (or blue) fitted blazer from any retailer at any price, I am just partial to Ralph Lauren. You can spend any amount of money that ...

A white, classic, long sleeved button up Oxford is another staple in any French woman’s closet. So clean, crisp and versatile and very comfortable. Make sure it’s not too casual. This is a piece that if you find the right one, possibly on sale, you ...

I don’t exactly like all of the pictures for this particular item, but you get the point. Another basic staple that doesn’t have to cost an arm and a leg.

Yes, I know this bag is kinda pricey, but….its one of those statement bags. It’s versatile and you’ll use it a lot. You can even wear it crossbody. Just everything about it screams luxury!

A classic Burberry trench coat, or ANY trench coat will do. I just love Burberry. That classic checkered pattern is recognizable anywhere!

I have these sunnies, and I love them! Talk about classic, timeless and sophisticated! Ray Ban is a trusted brand and holds its value over time. You know you’re getting a good pair of sunglasses!

I love ballet flats and I have several pairs by several designers. Rounded & pointy. The streets of Paris are notoriously uneven and sometimes not in the best condition. As much as I love heels and booties, if I’m doing a lot of walking, I don’t ...

Now whether you’re dressing ā€œFrenchā€ or not, every woman needs a little black dress, or LBD for short, in their closet. This is a classic that never goes out of style!

Now you need to add a black heel. Heel height is up to you, but I think anywhere from 1 to 3 inches is good. Just make sure you can walk in them!! Leather is always good and I usually will get the best I can afford.

A classic red lip is just that—classic. And it’s classical French too. There are so many to choose from though. I have cool undertones, so I look better in a blue-based red, just like the Ruby Woo. I did not post an orange-based red though. You’ll kn...

My mother once said that no outfit is complete without a strand of pearls. Real or fake, doesn’t matter, no one needs to know and you’re certainly not going to tell anyone. Nor should anyone ask. That’s tacky. I have a nice strand from Mikimoto that ...
