Sweater season is in full swing, and I have been in need of fresh ways to wear my favorite styles, especially a classic button-down cardigan. Naturally, I turned to my Instagram feed for inspiration, and the looks that stood out to me most were the takes from some of my favorite French fashion follows. It's no surprise, as French women are guaranteed to give any piece a chic and effortless feel.
In the six looks that I rounded up, the French styling touch was quite apparent. Every ensemble seamlessly mixes elevated basics with of-the-moment pieces. Two Parisian muses wore their cardigans with simple skirts in varying lengths, while two others opted for classic jeans and trendy shoe styles. Keep scrolling to check out and shop each outfit to add a French-inspired twist to your own looks this season.
