I've said it before, and I'll say it again: My aunt is one of my biggest style inspirations. In my 29 years as her niece, I've never seen her looking anything short of ultra chic and pulled-together, so it should come as no surprise when I tell you that it's her job to help people find their personal style. Practically everyone in our family goes to her for style advice (myself included), and since we both work in fashion now, I'm constantly texting her about everything from the coolest trends to know to what I'm considering buying.
Right now, my aunt is just as infatuated with the effortless vibe of French style as my fellow editors and I are. When we compared shopping lists, both of ours were littered with Parisian classics like easy flats, classic jeans, and pretty silk tops that are incredibly chic and timeless. I thought it would be fun to put my editor skills to the test and curate aReplica Store shopping list for my aunt of all the items that will help her create a French-inspired wardrobe.
Women in Paris are setting aside their blazers for Prada-inspired canvas jackets right now.
Jeans this classic will never not be relevant.
Fall '24 is all about suede, but then again, French women have been wearing it for decades already.
Satin tanks are the ultimate investment basic.
My aunt specifically asked me for new work bag options. I sent her this luxe tote that I'm debating buying for myself, too.
A timeless LBD is one of the first things on any French style shopping list.
Polished but walkable.
Polka dots are basically a neutral.
Sorry, but no other sunglasses style need apply.
You can't walk one block in most Paris neighborhoods without spotting a great button-down shirt.
From the South of France to Normandy and back—cream trousers are everywhere.
Style these with white socks if you know what you're doing.
Easy does it.
Everyone in Northern Europe is waiting to break theirs out the moment fall weather hits.
I own this and will recommend it to anyone who will listen. Trust me—you're going to want it in every color.
Leopard print never went "out" among French girls, but now that it's trending again, a pair of printed mules feels the most Parisian.
Chic without trying.
I'm suggesting a full skirt like this to my aunt if she's going to set aside her jeans at all.
Black flats are great and all, but a cherry red pair is even more forward.
Regret-free and absolutely essential.
I love the look of a simple black top with blue jeans, a combination French women wear multiple times a week.
Forget denim trends—this classic shape is all your wardrobe really needs.
So sweet.
T-shirts should be boxier.
Another French-wardrobe nonnegotiable.
For the beach and beyond.
Date night calling!
These actually look so expensive.
