French women are known for their effortless and elegant approach to dressing. While Parisians certainly wear sneakers to create their chic looks, there's one classy shoe style that's equally important in their wardrobes. Yes, it happens to be one silhouette they're wearing with the casual pant styles that are often worn with sneakers. Hello, black flats.
