Whenever I'm not sure what to wear, I turn to the IG feeds of my favourite New York and Parisian fashion people for some inspiration. They've never failed to deliver something shockingly wearable that I can copy with what I have in my own closet. I'm also always shopping for their looks which tend to be as effortlessly chic as can be.
We've reached a point in the year where everyone is getting a little bit tired of their winter wardrobe. Blue jeans and a sweater aren't as exciting as they were in November. So below, I've shared with you eight new ways to wear your favourite jeans as inspired by the outfits worn by Parisians and New Yorkers.
1. Frilly Blouses
I'm a New Yorker in my Marie Antoinette era, and Parisians are loving frilly blouses just as much as I am. If you're planning to wear jeans to a nice dinner or to the office, adding a blouse is the perfect way to make your look feel elevated.
Shop:
It was an immediate add-to-basket for me.
I got so many compliments on this top when I wore it the other day.
Something about this top makes me want to dance among billowy hills.
My kind of spring top.
2. Bomber Jackets
When I pitched this story, I immediately thought of bomber jackets. The bomber jacket is the staple that is currently bringing us New Yorkers and Parisians together. We all just can't get enough of it. There's an effortless vibe that we're all after and it's the easiest way to achieve it.
Shop:
This one is so spot on.
This denim version is seriously good.
You heard it here first. This is the next Zara bomber that will takeover the internet.
A classic take on the wardrobe staple.
3. Oversize Button-Downs
It may seem obvious, but it's so worth noting. You won't find a New Yorker or a Parisian who doesn't wear a white button-down shirt on a weekly basis. We just love them that much. Throwing a sweater over your shoulder instantly takes it to the next level.
Shop:
I'm all about these pinstripes.
This shirt is everything.
An instant classic.
This one is giving '90s.
4. Aviator Jackets
When I was stalking the French girls on Instagram to do some research for this story, I couldn't find one of them who wasn't wearing an aviator jacket. This staple has taken over the country which totally makes sense. I can't think of a cosier outerwear option.
Shop:
I need one in black and this one has my full attention.
An extra dose of shearling.
But how good is this colour combination?
5. Waistcoats
I knew before I started my search that I would lay eyes on a tailored waistcoat. It's simply a must for fashion people. I love the idea of wearing a denim one to match your jeans but a tailored option also never fails me.
Shop:
The fact that this comes as a matching set takes all of the heavy lifting off of my plate.
Absolute perfection.
There's just something about a waistcoat in black.
She's so pretty.
6. Canadian Tuxedos
The Canadian tuxedo has taken over the street-style scene as of late. It's hard for me to open up the Instagram app lately without finding an effortlessly paired denim jacket and pants look. This is the easiest way to look like a Parisian or New Yorker in seconds.
Shop:
This oversize shirt is goals.
This looks super vintage and cool.
You've never seen a Canadian tuxedo like this.
Cropped is always a good idea.
7. Halter Tops
An elevated approach to Y2K starts with a halter top. This cool-girl fashion piece will be just as powerful as the sculptural tube top trend that we're about to see take over. I think everyone will be wearing it by summer.
Shop:
I've had my eye on this one for a minute.
This is something Paris Hilton would've worn in the early 2000s.
Pretty in purple.
It's the simple things.
8. Boxy Blazers
Blazers are always a must when styling out your denim and a silhouette I've seen takeover recently is the boxy style. At New York Fashion Week, it was all over the runways and I'm already seeing it on the streets of New York and Paris. It's high-key a must-buy.
Shop:
Tailored to perfection.
Now, this is fun.
Plaid everything, please.
