We turn to Sandy Koszarek on a regular basis for sartorial inspiration. She built a storied career as a VIP stylist atReplica Store and currently works on her blog, Stylish Sandy. So yes, she certainly knows what's up in the style department. Where does she often pull inspiration from? Well, like many of us, she turns to the French-style set. After all, Parisians have that desirable je ne sais quoi approach to fashion, with silhouettes often synonymous with words like "effortless" and "cool."

Given Koszarek's love of Parisian style, she tends to gravitate toward items in her day-to-day life that are in line with staples many French women wear to achieve those easy and elegant looks. Below, Koszarek shares the pieces she lives in that are also go-to picks for people in Paris. Keep scrolling for more, including visual inspiration and shopping recommendations.
