Dress Like a French Woman

French Fridays Week 24

Sault and welcome to French Fridays week 24 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

French Fridays Week 24 | French girl inspired summer fashion

Easy and laid-back summer outfit of linen shorts, a white or grey t-shirt, an oversized blazer, and buckled sandals. For the cool mornings, wear the blazer, and when it gets hot take it off.

Add a designer basket bag or go with a more affordable basket to complete this summer French girl look perfect for vacations, holidays, or just the weekends.

French Recipe

The French like to have a traditional dinner on Sundays, usually with roast chicken. While in Paris, we decided to do this also and went to the market where we bought a cooked and very delicious roasted petit poulet.

If you aren’t able to get to your own market where they sell roasted chickens, make this one from Julia Child’s at home and have your own traditional Sunday French dinner. Add a baguette, of course, a vegetable, wine, and voilĆ !

French Finds

It’s sales season in Paris right now and a great time to purchase clothing, home goods, designer goods, and anything else you can think of. Basically, all stores have items on sale now.

I took advantage of this at ba&sh Paris when I went in and found items at 50% off. I bought this navy and white sweater and this cream sweater, which is perfect for Paris right now. These are both such classic pieces that I will be able to wear them for years to come.

Favorite Places In Paris To Know

Saint Andre CafƩ is a charming and quaint cafƩ located in the 6th arrondissement of Paris at 2 rue Danton 75006. The cafƩ is located right down the road from our apartment and the first place we stopped at on our first day.

The inside is super cute, the bistro chairs on the outside are inviting and overall the cafĆ© has a beautiful Parisian vibe plus it’s very photogenic.

If you are looking for a cute and charming cafƩ during your Paris trip, put this on your list.
