french style

a while back i got a request to address french style more often. living in paris as an american, after a long time, parisian chic can become an almost relentless parade of black and legs for miles. every parisienne worth her salt owns a leather jacket. and the accessories......it's impossible to explain in words, and who better to show you than the arbiters themselves, carine and the gang at paris vogue:

I love the original title of it, I love that you live in Paris, I love what you write about...
Keep going. This is so nice :)

So undeniably chic, I love the black and the silhouettes but they have something else that sets their style apart that is difficult to describe... sort of an unfussy natural beauty.

Incredibly beautiful! Love all the chic black, sparkles and platforms. Parisian style is exquisite!

I always wonder how Parisians make the colour black look soooo interesting...

I just found your blog for the first time...such a good name for a blog! I read The House of Mirth ages ago and loved it, I keep meaning to read more of hers.
Thanks for sharing these Paris pics. I am so desperate to go to Paris soon, this just makes me want to go more!
