Spotted on the Chicest Parisians: A Classic Basic Styled With Jeans, Skirts, and Trousers
This wardrobe staple is always fashionable.


Parisians are known for their effortless approach to style. As a result, their outfits are often no-fuss, featuring chic yet easy pieces like basics. One constant in many Parisians' wardrobes? The trusty striped button-up shirt. This classic and timeless piece is always chic. While it falls in the basics category, it feels modern and relevant. It's also incredibly versatile and can pair with various outfits and be dressed up or down.
After scrolling through the Instagram feeds of some of the most stylish French women, striped button-ups were seen most with midi skirts, relaxed jeans, and wide-leg trousers. Although, given the versatility, this basic can be styled with just about anything. Keep scrolling to see how people in Paris are styling button-up shirts right now, and shop inspired picks if you're looking to add a fresh piece or two to your spring wardrobe.
You can't deny the chicness of a striped shirt and denim combo. The styling here is noteworthy with the white tee underneath and the sweater around the shoulders for a layered look.
For a polished look, consider teaming a striped button-up shirt with wide-leg trousers. This look is incredibly elegant and only requires the two pieces (mixed with accessories).
As mentioned above, a striped shirt can be worn with anything, including a sleek midi skirt. Wearing the shirt unbuttoned with a tank all tucked into the skirt is beyond cool.
