February 28, 2023

The Parisian aesthetic is an appreciation of simplistic and elegant style. If you enjoy wearing trousers, little black dresses, button-downs, and loafers, then this aesthetic is for you. Parisian is inspired by chic Parisienne women who inhabit the iconic city of Paris, but TV shows such as Emily in Paris put it back on our radar after we fell in love with Camille and Sylvie’s sophisticated fashion tastes.

If you want to create a versatile, timeless, and a classic wardrobe, read this post for affordable ways to Achieve a Chic Parisian Wardrobe With 20 Timeless Pieces.

What is Parisian?

Parisian is a classic, minimalistic style aesthetic inspired by fashionable Parisian people. Per The Zoe Report, the Parisian style is inspired by French creatives such as artists and writers. This aesthetic is clean, simple, stylish, and classic. It often includes wardrobe basics, dainty accessories, and chic red lipstick.

Where Can I Buy Parisian Clothing?

The best places to start looking for Parisian clothing are French and European brands that nail the style or retailers that sell classic clothing. I recommend checking out Sandro, Sezane, Maje, Zara, H&M, Mango, J.Crew, Chicwish, J.ING, Urban Revivo, Rihoas, Lattelier Store, Dane Fashion, Shop Cider, and Yesstyle, among others.

1. Striped Sweater

Add a striped sweater to any classic outfit for the perfect look.

2. Cardigans
