Dress Like a French Woman

A Parisian-inspired one-page style guide for effortless, everyday dressing.

French Fridays Week 19

Sault and welcome to French Fridays week 19 where I am sharing everything French that I’ve loved the past week in style, food, beauty, finds, and favorite places in Paris to know.

French Style

You can still wear your favorite blazer during spring and summer. Try it with a striped top, white linen shorts, a market bag, and black sandals for a classic and chic look.

SHOP THE LOOK

French ApƩro

The French love their afternoon ApĆ©ro, the cocktail, and the snack, which takes place about an hour before dinner. It doesn’t have to be anything extravagant. A simple bowl of olives, chips, or pretzels even, with your favorite glass of wine will do. It’s all about enjoying the company and the experience.

French Finds

Just ordered this book, Joie, about a Parisian’s guide to celebrating the good life. The author is an American ex-pat who now calls Paris home (lucky lady).

For all you foodies out there, this Master The Art Of French Cooking wall art would look great hung in a kitchen or even dining room.

Favorite Places In Paris To Know

The Palais Royal, located in the 1st Arrondissement, is one of my favorite places to visit in Paris. Constructed back in 1628, it’s now a historical and cultural monument.

It’s a beautiful spot to start the morning, grab a coffee at CafĆ© KitsnuĆ©, before going over. It can become very crowded later day, that’s why I prefer going in the morning. You can walk through the gardens, and the luxury shops, and enjoy the foundation. It’s also a great place to take kids to run around.

Au Revoir and Bonne Weekend(Good Weekend)
