Another season has begun, and I'm still pining over French-girl style. Naturally, plenty of people have emulated and perfected the toned-down, timeless aesthetic over the years. Contrary to popular belief, French girls aren't spending hundreds of dollars on clothing every month but are instead buying select a few classic pieces from both trend-focused retailers and high-end brands to round out their closets. One of their favorite stores to shop at? Mango.
The Spanish retailer is known for its elegant selection of cool basics and elevated take on trends, making it a staple in French women's wardrobes. Naturally, as a self-proclaimed wannabe French girl, I spend hours combing through Mango's new-arrivals section weekly. Below are all of the It girl approved finds you'd be shocked to not see on the streets of Paris, Saint-Tropez, and Nice as we close the chapter on summer and head into the fall.
French girls love to keep up with cool-girl luxury brands, so this whimsical blouse that feels very reminiscent of Chemena Kamali for Chloé is high up on their shopping list.
Studs and similar edgy hardware is a fresh way to spice up any basic tote bag.
If there's one thing you need to know about French women, it's that they love their classic denim straight-leg jeans.
BRB, about to book a vacation to Aix-en-Provence so I can wear this pretty blouse.

Classic, elegant, and cool.
In lieu of over-the-top logo handbags, French women love to keep their purse choices subtle.
