I’ve obviously been watching Emily in Paris recently (I don’t make the rules!), and when chitchatting about it to friends and random people at events and such, it never fails to delight me how worked up everyone gets about the fashion. We love it, we hate it, and we need to talk about it—particularly about how fabulously at odds it all seems with the classic, impeccably understated idea we have of what French style should be.
If your personal style veers more “capsule wardrobe” and less “prints on prints for all occasions,” then this curation of chic fall items is for you. Think timeless denim, excellent tailored separates, and elegant accessories that elevate the simplest outfits. From Isabel Marant accessories to under-$100 basics, I found all these French-coded pieces at Nordstrom and Revolve. No, Emily Cooper probably wouldn’t buy anything here, but my friends in Paris definitely would.
