Is there anything chicer than French fashion? Paris is the fashion capital of the world. When we need fashion inspiration, we always find ourselves turning to the French. Whether it’s the fashion lessons of Gabrielle Chanel or the casual-chic aesthetic, French fashion is in a league of its own. This winter, we’re all embracing our inner ‘Emily in Paris’ and experimenting with French fashion ideas. Read on to find out the 20 best French winter fashion ideas.
- Nothing is chicer than a silk scarf. Whether it’s vintage Hermes or from H&M, add a silk scarf to elevate your look.
- Embrace ballet flats for winter to take any outfit from day to night. Patent flats are your BFF for any occasion.
- Add a faux fur coat to your closet for special occasions or when you want to make an elegant statement.
- Wool blazers will add a Parisian flare to your workwear closet and are a staple for winter fashion in France.
- Switch out your summer jacket for a long wool coat to add a touch of timeless elegance to your look.
- Cardigans are a must-have for winter, whether you’re chilling in a coffee shop or touring an art museum.
- Layer a turtleneck with statement gold jewellery for a 70s Parisian inspired look that will see you through the Winter season.
- Knitwear is a staple in European fashion, with Parisian girls living in it all winter long. Invest in a cashmere sweater to wear with jeans or a pencil skirt.
- Experiment with an oversized hat to protect your hairstyle and keep the wind at bay. Choose one in a neutral color for ultimate versatility.
- Winter is all about ankle boots. It’s a Parisian staple and the shoe of choice to see you through the season.
- Speaking of boots, splurge on knee-high boots to add a vintage-inspired sultry twist to any outfit.
- Swap your cocktail dress for a velvet jumpsuit and platform heels. Don’t forget a coat of red lipstick.
- Add tailoring to every look, whether it’s with a blazer or a thin leather belt. You can take a budget-friendly piece and have it tailored to give you the perfect fit.
- A leather jacket is one piece every French girl gravitates towards during winter. It’s the winter equivalent of a denim jacket.
- When it comes to coats, the trench coat personifies the idea of Parisian chic. You can buy a pre-loved trench for a vintage aesthetic or splurge on a new one.
- Jeans a seasonless staple, but wide leg jeans are what every Parisian girl spends their winters in.
- Plaid skirts with woollen tights and an oversized sweater are a signature French look for winter. You can add a matching plaid headband for a timeless look,
- Did you know that bucket bags were originally made to carry champagne bottles? If you want a French-inspired bag for winter, choose a bucket bag!
- Whatever events you have on your social calendar this winter, you want to add a universally flattering silk dress to your closet.
- Is there anything more Parisian than a beret? Swap out your beanie for a beret for a more feminine look.

I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing.
I’ve had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out.
I do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first
10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted just trying to
figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or
tips? Cheers!
