Classic. Chic. Sexy. Well-dressed. Elegant.
Face it, who doesn’t want to be described using these legendary French girl adjectives.
Whether she is strolling along the Champs-Elysées in designer duds or selecting the perfect chapeau or lacy lingerie to dress up her wardrobe, the French woman is obsessed with classic style and good taste.
If you are interested in classic French girl dress up and want to learn how to shop, style and dress yourself like a true Parisian femme fatale, follow these French fashion rules.
Become a card-carrying member of the bold and the beautiful with tips that remove any obstacles to elegance.
French girls invest in the basics.
Every woman should have 12 wardrobe pieces to take her from day to evening instantly. A French woman uses this one perfectly reliable style secret to remain well dressed and appropriate from birth to death, and every fashionable stop in between.
A French woman remains loyal to her personal style.
A French woman learns her fashion style code at an early age. If she favors bohemian or romantic clothing–is unabashedly classic or chooses to dress sexy–she decides what looks best on her body early, and builds her wardrobe accordingly.
Dress classically and conservatively, if you want to look like the French.
Let your true beauty shine with classic dresses, simple suiting and wardrobe choices that will never go out of style.
Invest in pieces that will last a minimum of 10 years. Choose clothing that has the right balance of glamour and quality. Update your basics each season with trendy accessories: scarves, brooches, pins, bags, shoes and outwear.
Arm yourself with simplicity.
If you see a woman festooned with logos from head-to-toe and wearing a hodge-podge of prints, stripes and bold colors…she is not French.
A French woman knows that garish fashion choices are the enemy of chic.
When you wear simple, well-made clothes, your inner and outer beauty does not compete with an overdose of sequins, ruffles and trendy fashion choices gone wrong.
Just say no to frumpy clothing and accessories.
A French woman is always well-dressed for every occasion. She is equally fashionable and well-prepared for her trek down the red carpet at a special event or shopping for her daily groceries at the market.
Running a few errands this weekend?Want to embrace your inner French girl?
Wear a twinset, dark boot cut jeans and a pair of loafers, instead of athletic shoes and your old high-school sweat suit filled with holes.
French women embrace the beauty details.
French women have daily and weekly beauty rituals that enhance their confidence and maintain their legendary irresistibility.
Spray on a decadent signature perfume to smell like a dream. Polish your toes and fingernails every three days. Get a haircut and hair color that makes you look 10 years younger.
Find a skin cream and anti-aging beauty regimen that keeps your skin soft, supple and smooth. Buy lingerie, minimizers and shape wear to hide your flaws and make you look and feel fabulous.
Now you’re ready to be a perfectly polished and eternally radiant Francophile style ambassador.
Regardless of your budget, zip code and ability to pronounce après-ski, or avant-garde you can dress like a French woman and inject glamour and classic style touches into your existing wardrobe.

UGH!!! That girl’s beret looks like a red bedpan, and her hair is just disgustingly greasy wisps. French? I think not.

Great post! French style is a lot like Italian style in the way they both stick to classic pieces. I love the timeless look of European fashion! The key is to invest in some key pieces that will last such as a good pair of black courts and a quality leather bag – these will look good teamed with any outfit!

The “béret” is a BIG stereotype. Trust me, I’m from Paris. Don’t wear this in Paris, it look so stupide, everyone will laugh because of that. Trust me, DON’T wear a béret, or that’s sure everyone will found out you’re a tourist.

French girls do not wear nail polish. They do, however, have the most perfectly manicured, buffed, natural nails I’ve ever seen. I think the term “French manicure,” with white tips, is meant to mimic the perfection that most French women seem to have mastered without the use of polish.
