With Paris gearing up for the summer Olympics, now is an ideal time to visit the French capital. There’s even more buzz and excitement in Paris at the moment than usual, and the style stakes have been ramped up by the promise of global attention falling on the city and its inhabitants. If you’re taking a spring or summer trip to Paris, make sure you pack at least one of these super chic items, so that you can match the Parisians when it comes to demonstrating your superior taste and style.
Brown Blazer
Brown can be an unexpected, yet highly chic shade. It’s a touch more experimental than fail-safe black, but there is a shade to suit every style and skin tone. A brown blazer can be dressed up or down, depending on the look you’re trying to achieve, and it’s also a great additional layer to pack if you’re visiting in the spring.
Mesh Ballet Flats
Ballet flats have been big news for a while, and you’re sure to see plenty of pairs being sported around the French capital. For an extra layer of cool, try out a pair of mesh flats. Not only will these look great with dresses, pants, and skirts, the mesh means these shoes will keep your feet feeling cool and fresh, even if you’re pounding the pavements seeking out the best sights and things to do in Paris.
Wide Legged Pants
Wide, flowing pants are a great option if you’re looking to stay cool in the summer heat. Pair them with a cropped tank top, or commit to the oversized look and wear them with a large shirt. When styled with sneakers or sandals, wide-legged pants can look casual and chic, rather than like workwear.
