The French Girl Wardrobe Staple You Don’t Own Yet

by Kristi Mikesky

By now, you know the core elements of a French girl-inspired wardrobe (classic ballet flats, striped shirts and a sleek leather handbag) but there might be another key addition you’ve overlooked in your quest to appear Parisienne. Crewneck sweatshirts donning a très chic slogan or illustration align seamlessly with the off-duty sensibilities of the European style, adding to the insouciant vibe of a daytime outfit. Dress it up with a pleated midi skirt or down with a pair of perfectly lived-in jeans; either way, you’re going to want to add one to your wardrobe stat. Ahead, some of our current favorites emblazoned with an ode to the gallic nation.
