A French Woman Walks Into J.Crew—20 New Arrivals She'd Buy in a Heartbeat
Sponsor Content Created With J.Crew
I'm always taking style notes from French women. (For proof, please see my social media feed.) Never overly trendy but always effortlessly cool, French women are patrons of the classics. And with spring here, these style aficionados have added seasonal essentials to their wardrobes, including linen separates, elegant dresses, woven accessories, and some fun swim styles. Of course, I've been eager to add these items to my wardrobe and was relieved (but not surprised) to find that J.Crew's new arrivals have it all. Standouts include an embroidered linen top, a fitted tank dress with a poplin skirt, and a chic hand-knotted clutch. Perfect for the beach, dinners, and city strolls, here are the 20 finds any French woman would buy in a heartbeat.
