We here at The Haute Lifestyle have been doing our best to keep up with "French Fashion" and found tips and trick on how you can dress like a Parisian by adding your own personality and of course for a lot less.
Skip the Beret
Sure, there is the cliche' association with a Beret and French culture which dates back to centuries ago but this is actually the farthest thing away from dressing like a Parisian. Unless you are a mime, the Beret is definitely not a necessity.
Easy Does it
Contrary to popular believe where it is often perceived that Parisians go overboard when it comes to Fashion--take it from us when we say "less is more". Most Parisians will opt to keep it simple and go for cool and modern. What's cool and modern? Think of a comfy pair of jeans with an edgy pair of ankle boots and a statement item like a handbag or coat/jacket.
Cashmere Sweater, Great Jacket or a Good Blouse

In today's Fashionova and Pretty Little Thing world, items like the ones named above are something of a distant memory. When was the last time you heard anyone say "Oh, I need a cashmere sweater or a good blouse in my wardrobe? We'll wait - A great cashmere sweater can make an everyday outfit look chic and more expensive than it is. We've also found that Parisians love a well-constructed leather Jacket and will wear it over a dress to create that ultra cool look.
Swap out your Black Dress

Parisian Fashion is all about embracing the delicate features of a woman which is often expressed through fabric choices like lace! In this case, you are swapping out your mundane Black Dress for a chic little lace dress. Lace is very important right now because you can dress it up with a nice pair of heels or dress it down with flats or sneakers.
Minimal Make-up
One of the top things we noticed about Parisians is how little makeup they wear! The face has a more natural look, eyebrows are either thinly shaped or slightly bushy and they finish that off with a red lip. This look fits into the "no-make-up make-up look" that became popular 2 years ago in the mainstream beauty industry. Instead of the "beat face," we are used to, opt for a fresh natural look.
