If there’s one person I’ll always take shopping advice from, it’s my French (read: impossibly chic) best friend. And yes, as a shopping editor of six years, I’m well aware of how that sounds—but trust me on this one.
She has that innate sense of style that can’t be taught. The kind that spots the best pieces before they’re everywhere, and somehow always lands on exactly the right thing. Her wardrobe is equal parts considered and effortless, built around pieces that feel timeless, but never boring.
Salome wearing the Manu Atelier Le Cambon.
From embroidered blouses and straight-leg jeans, leather ballet flats to chic jackets, easy summer dresses and handbags that could easily pass for designer, she has a knack for pulling together a spring/summer capsule that feels elevated, but still realistic. Naturally, I asked for her current shopping list. Keep scrolling to shop the best French-inspired shopping pieces below.
