If you read my stories regularly, you'll know I'm French at heart, especially when it comes to my style. I'm forever searching for fresh pieces that embody that nonchalant-yet-polished aesthetic the French do so well.

Below, I've rounded up pieces that ooze French charm for spring and summer. From basket bags to straight-leg jeans and relaxed button-downs, I'm sharing my favorite Zara finds below. These are perfect for anyone going for a classic but modern French vibe.
