It’s probably a tell-tell sign that I’ve never been to France when the closest thing I relate to the country is stripes. But I can’t help but feel very chic, very french when I’m in stripes. 

Stripes, red lips, black flats. I feel like this is the foundation of a chic outfit. In fact, I thought I was wearing red lipstick in these photos, but turns out I grabbed a pink instead or red. Le sigh, at least I got the stripes right.

  13. I don’t know but you look pretty French to me! I was in Paris for a layover once so that makes me an expert on French style, right? 😉

  19. I’m french (I live in Paris!), and to me, you’re a real “parisienne” ! Great style!

  20. i thought you were going to reference frenchie from grease, which i think is equally appropriate for this outfit. it might be based entirely on the leather jacket though.

  22. Even after almost 4 years I’m still searching for a royal blue striped top like this one. The ones I’m finding have a thicker stripe at the collar which stands out too much while wearing this necklace. I wish I could find this Whetherly version. Too bad the company went out of business.
