Dress Like a French Woman

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

Le Bon Marché

Located on the left bank, Le Bon Marche is my personal favorite. The oldest department store in Paris and the one carrying the most luxurious brands. You can find pretty much every single French brand here. Once you’re done shopping, you can go next door to their version of an upscale luxurious grocery store called La Grande Épicerie.

24 Rue de Sèvres, 75007

Galeries Lafayette

Right next to Printemps in the 9th arrondissement, housing all the famous luxury brands. It also has an amazing food hall, and kids section, and is definitely worth a visit. You can also get city views here for FREE as well. Visit the 6th floor for all kinds of Paris souvenirs, books, luggage, and tech gadgets.

40 Bd Haussmann, 75009

Printemps

French department store chain comprised of 4 buildings, each carrying specific categories and luxury items. You can eat on the roof at Perruche for a view of the city or skip eating and just look at the view.

Samaritaine

Recently reopened after a massive refurbishment by LVMH. The building and interior are gorgeous and a historical landmark. You can buy personalized bottles of Champagne, one of the biggest beauty floors around, and lots of designer brands. There’s also a section on the ground floor where you can pick up unique souvenirs.
