"Is it just me, or does getting dressed in winter just feel so… blah? When the temperatures drop, my morning #OOTD prep goes something like this: jeans, basic sweater, puffer coat, snow boots, rinse and repeat every day until March. Cozy, sure, but the truest creative expression of my style it is not.

Whenever I’m in a style rut (or rewatch Amélie for the millionth time), I look to my ultimate style icons for l’inspiration. There’s something about French girl style that is so effortlessly chic, so timelessly stylish, and so je ne sais quoi. It doesn’t require a lot of money or effort to keep up with the latest because French girl fashion is built around classics that never go out of style.
