Parisians Know Better Than to Buy Into These 7 Trends
Trends come and go, but Paris fashion is always timeless. This got me wondering about what fashion "trends" French women might find worthy of buying into this season, or will quiet luxury be the be-all and end-all? Let's find out.
I decided to call up a friend and get all of the answers for you. Léna Farl has lived in Paris her entire life and is quite an observant fashion person. She's witnessed the rise and fall of the cardigan obsession and everyone's heel heights. She shocked me by swearing that these seven fall trends simply aren't worth it—let's discuss.
Pause: Prairie Dresses
Wear: Little Black Dresses
"The classic little black dress is the staple you will find in every Parisienne wardrobe. It's an essential piece that transcends time and trends. With the ability to seamlessly transition from day to night, this is the ultimate piece for an elegant Parisian look."
Shop the trend:
Pause: Crossbody Bags
Wear: Luxury Totes
"With back-to-school season upon us, having a big bag to carry all your essentials is a must! I'm currently obsessed with my Polène Cyme bag. I love its simple design and luxury finishes."
Shop the trend:
Pause: Crop Tops/Baby Tees
Wear: Oversize Shirts
"This piece embodies the fusion of comfort and style, effortlessly blurring the line between borrowed-from-the-boys ease and a distinctly feminine allure with a sense of nonchalant elegance."
Shop the trend:
Pause: Low-Rise Jeans
Wear: Straight Jeans
"Consider my affinity for a well-fitted pair of jeans as the foundation of my style identity. The high-rise, wide-leg cut is my ultimate preference. Although, I recognize the power of straight jeans, which seamlessly harmonize with a large spectrum of garments, from a simple white tee and sneakers to a more elaborate top paired with heels."
Shop the trend:
Pause: Sambas
Wear: Ballet Flats
"I just love the timeless allure of ballet flats and how they represent Parisian chic."
Shop the trend:
Pause: Biker Jackets
Wear: Relaxed Blazers
"I'm ditching the trendy jackets for a piece I'm wearing over and over, no matter the season! A timeless, versatile blazer will elevate any formal or casual looks."
Shop the trend:
Pause: Ditsy Florals
Wear: Animal Print
"Well, you can actually still wear floral if you match it with leopard print! For me, leopard print is a neutral and a classic print to have in your closet. … I incorporate this vivacious print as an essential punctuation mark for my outfits, whether harmonizing with understated hues or combined with other playful patterns."

Sierra Mayhew was always destined to work in fashion, but she didn't know it at first. Growing up with no choice but to wear a rotation of school uniforms and activewear, her love for fashion really blossomed when she moved away for college and was able to finally define her very own personal style. Shortly thereafter, she interned at Elle magazine and instantly knew that editorial was for her. After graduating from the University of Notre Dame, she worked for ShopBazaar, contributing regularly to Bazaar.com, and finally made her way toBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , where she is an associate editor. When she’s not working, you can catch her always trying to catch a flight, trying Wholesale Replica Bag fitness craze in New York City, or exploring luxury vintage boutiques.
