laissez-faire: the style mantra of la parisienne...

the style of la parisienne is relatively simple.

starting with basic pieces in solid colours, les parisiennes derive their fabulous style by focusing on layering and accessories.

streetstyle blog Easy Fashion is a lovely place to be inspired by the style of beautiful paris women.

Shirtdresses, skirts, blouses, tshirts, tanks, blazers and jeans are the staples of a parisienne... it's the accessories that complete the look.

the idea is to keep it simple and beautiful. focus on one standout piece, like a leopard clutch, a red belt, a fedora, a fringe bag or a statement necklace. let that piece speak for itself by placing it on a neutral canvas, one solid colour, black & white, jeans.

layering allows the parisienne to reuse pieces in completely different ways; a loose fitting tshirt can be worn with jeans under a blazer, or tucked into a black pencil skirt. a day dress can be worn with coyboy boots or gladiator sandals, or paired with black tights and booties.
