C’est tres chic : Steal her French style.

Is there anything simpler than blazer, white shirt and jeans?
It’s the essence of French style. Chic. Simple. Low key.
But why does she look so effortless yet polished?
Because she’s updated all these wardrobe staples into new modern shapes.
If you have been following me for a while you know that is FiFi Philosophy numéro une !
Remember all these classics date. You can’t keep pulling them out and think they still look good.
Mais non !
That’s because the shape changes. All those so called ‘classics’ you were told you could wear forever suddenly don’t seem right. You look in the mirror and something is wrong. You feel draggy. And you don’t know why.
Solution ?!
Update those key pieces into new modern shapes …
The blazer is updated so it’s long, slouchy and has room to move.
The white shirt has a neat pointed collar and cuffs and loose ( but not too huge so you can’t tuck it in)
The jeans? They are ,baggy and cool. Straight wide leg, sits mid rise and in a lighter wash.

Styling tricks:
Black and white converse add a low key relaxed vibe.
They match the blazers and shirt .
A black shoulder bag with a bit of hardware is all the gold you need.
Keep it simple and ditch any obvious jewellery or glitzy shit.
As Coco Chanel said take one thing off before you go out the door = minimal chic.
Keep the white shirt collar tucked inside the jacket. And pull out the cuffs.
Tuck the shirt into the jeans: that’s why high waist jeans were invented haha.
Black sunglasses work back with the black shoes and bags.
Now you can steal her French style !
