Music to get you in the french mood.....
Effortless. Timeless. Radiating Confidence. Slightly messy
but yet so refined. Alluring. Elusive & uncontrived - just some words to describe
the “French” look. Parisians have a certain how does one say “Je ne sais quoi”...... & to me - undoubtedly
the most beautiful and effortlessly dressed women.
Here are some ways you can bring the French
out of you! Ooh lala!
1.
Negligee….meaning “neglected”. Rough your hair after its been styled to give
you the perfect “bed Head” look. The French
do not like heavy makeup. Moisturized healthy skin is sexier than any face full
of foundation. Try a Tinted moisturizer, dab on lipstick with your finger and
use the same color for your cheeks. Dress it up with a a gorgeous cat eyeliner & Voila! Easy, simple and sexy.
2. Chic Casual Style – Dress in outfits that work for
your body and always add a scarf. Choose neutrals over rainbows. The French favor
black, greys, a rich champagne color, soft rose colors and creams. Go for a gorgeous
knit, silk or cashmere fabric, never look sloppy – comfortable and confident is
key. Swap tennis sneakers for flats, jeans for fitted black capri leggings and
instead of a puffy jacket wear a blazer. Swap out your shorts and tank for a
summer dress and with a gorgeous cardigan and ankle boots.
Here are some of the key pieces to keep in mind when
going Parisian. This look is one any fashionista can afford – suitable for any
budget. Happy wallet Happy You! Look through your closet, I'm sure you already have most of these
pieces. If your short on cash, try the local 2nd hand store for a
trench and blazer, they usually have great finds!
