Ah, two subjects I love to talk about—French-girl style and Zara! What’s even better is when the two coincide. After a whole afternoon spent perusing Zara’s site (all in the name of the job, of course), I found a whole host of easy, chic, and classic fall and winter pieces that have the makings of a great French-girl outfit. Included in the mix are plenty of Parisian-inspired basics—from relaxed crewneck sweaters in understated navy, olive, and gray to vintage-looking jeans, chic blazers, and ballet flats—that ooze effortlessly chic vibes.
If you’re curious or simply love Zara and French-girl style like I do, then keep scrolling for plenty of shopping inspiration.
