A FormerReplica Store Buyer Just Went to Paris and Saw These 8 Items Everywhere

Susie Wright is a top-notch resource for fashion inspiration given her previous experience as a Nordstrom buyer and current work as a stylist and influencer. (Her blog is called So Susie.) She also has a sharp eye, so we're consistently intrigued by the trends she's spotting and wearing. She actually just got back from Paris, and since the Parisian aesthetic is so coveted, we were interested in learning about the items she spotted and wore while abroad.
Below, you'll uncover the key pieces Wright saw all over the streets of Paris. Effortlessness is the word that could be used to describe all of the trends in question. As you'll see, every trend is forward and cool, and they're easy to style with a range of closet staples. Keep scrolling for more, including visual inspiration showcasing how Wright is wearing the items.
1. Tailored Vests
On Wright: Rag Bone vest
"Tailored vests are a stylish staple that Parisian women were wearing while out and about. I saw several matching sets, either with shorts or trousers, for a sleek, modern look. Another favorite outfit was a vest-and-slip-skirt combo—absolutely loved the look." — Wright
2. Button-Down Shirts
On Wright: Frank Eileen shirt
"This layering staple is sooo versatile. Whether it's a classic white style or a French striped button-down, these wardrobe staples belong in everyone's closet. Stylish French women were wearing them with everything from straight-leg denim to tailored shorts to trousers and looking fabulous, of course." — Wright
3. Large Totes
On Wright: Loewe tote
"The minute I got off the plane, I noticed everyone was carrying a large tote bag. There was a mix of raffia, structured totes and designer styles, and they all looked super cool. And why not? They're functional, practical, and super stylish." — Wright
4. Skirts
On Wright: Anthropologie skirt
"Skirts are having a resurgence this year, and I saw many different styles in Paris, from longer denim skirts to slip skirts to shorter styles. Talk about an easy way to give your wardrobe an instant update." — Wright
5. Straight-Leg Jeans
On Wright: Mother jeans
"Many women were wearing straight-leg jeans with either sandals or ballet flats—so chic! Try the Mother Dazzlers or Levi's denim. On top, try a tank with an oversize blazer, a button-down shirt, or a T-shirt and trench." — Wright
6. Sneakers
On Wright: Alexander McQueen sneakers
"Sneakers are still the casual shoe of choice in Paris (and everywhere). Style girls were wearing them with dresses, skirts, shorts, trousers… You name it. Of-the-moment brands include Veja, On, Nike, and New Balance." — Wright
7. Tailored Shorts
On Wright: Vince shorts
"There were tailored shorts everywhere in Paris, from museums to cafés to the dinner boat cruise we took on the Seine. They were casually paired with a simple tank and slide sandals or dressed up with blazers and a low heel." — Wright
8. Trousers
On Wright: Aritzia trousers
"Trousers are having a moment, and I saw them everywhere in Paris. They were paired with everything from ribbed tanks to coordinating vests and even button-down shirts worn open like a jacket." — Wright
