10 timeless pieces you need in your wardrobe

French women are definitely the women whose style is most imitated, from street style and catwalks to celebs. When looking at their style, it is easy to spot a certain pattern - timeless classics, that each of them has in their closet. Despite this, they are no less elegant and authentic because they still combine basic fashion pieces in creative ways, consistent with their style.

French women prefer to invest in timeless pieces than in trends. In addition, they choose functionality and practicality - one thing can always be worn in multiple ways, on multiple occasions, and nothing should seem excessive.

What pieces do the best dressed French women have? Scroll and get inspired!

TRENCH COAT

The trench coat replaced the classic coat, and soon the trend spread throughout the world. Our favorites: beige, black, and olive green.

FLOWER BLOUSE

While their hairstyle and makeup always send a message of casualness, the secret is that French women wear a striking blouse that elevates their look to a higher level. Those with a floral pattern are especially popular, so, at least that way, spring lasts all year round.

FLARED JEANS

Thanks to the body positivity movement, it is no longer a question of which body the flared jeans fit - every woman can wear them if she feels good in them. Also, French women are trying to preserve the trend of the 70s at all costs.

BALLERINAS

Of all the clichés about French style, this is one of the few that French women really wear.

SLIP DRESSES

Without straining around the silhouette, comfort is just as important to French ladies as a stylish look. That is why they usually wear split dresses in which they can go to work, but also to an evening party.

BLACK JACKET

Finding a jacket that suits your daily fashion combination can be tricky, but not if you have a black jacket available. The French wear them on top of everything - dresses, jeans, baggy pants...

SOFT CARDIGAN

Quality comes first, so pay attention to the material your favorite cardigan is made of. This is a piece that is the first association with winter, but it actually became a must-have piece this summer, that you can combine in unusual ways. 

SHOULDER BAG

Much more practical than handbags, but also more sophisticated than those worn over the body, shoulder bags are owned by every French woman.
