There must be something in the water at Nordstrom and Zara lately because their usual stellar offerings are better than ever. While scrolling through both sites recently, it dawned on me that most of what stood out while shopping gave me major French vibes. Naturally, I thought to share my top picks with you since this pull toward Parisian style has quite the draw for most fashion people. I just know you'll covet these finds as much as I do.
In my recent perusal I came across a selection of elevated basics as well as some trendier finds that lend to the effortless feel a French woman's outfit rotation embodies. This includes elevated tops, jeans, skirts, dresses, bags, and more. Standouts are the suede and lace pieces. Ahead, shop 30 chic Nordstrom and Zara picks that would make any French fashion person stop scrolling and start adding to cart.
