8 Rich-Looking Items French Girls Are Wearing This Winter

It’s not always easy to keep our levels of elegance high when the temps start to dip low, but who better to inspire winter outfits than the fashion-forward French, who basically embody the words “effortlessly chic”? This month, I turned to some of the most fashionable French women for winter outfit inspiration and noticed a handful of rich-looking items that kept cropping up again and again. These are pieces that exude elegance and instantly elevate an outfit the moment you put them on. Think opulent faux-fur coats and sumptuous suede bags. But just because these pieces look expensive doesn’t mean you have to break the bank to get your hands on them. In fact, I’ve rounded up eight rich-looking items I’m seeing the most on stylish Parisians this winter, and I’ve included plenty of shopping picks in the mix for you to shop them at an accessible price point.

If you want an expensive-looking winter wardrobe, then keep scrolling to get your hands on these French-girl picks.

Faux fur is reigning supreme in Paris right now. From elegant long coats to charming cropped jackets and statement scarves, the textured fabric adds a rich touch to every outfit.

French women lean on beautiful quality and elevated knitwear throughout the season. Opt for a cashmere cardigan, a chic knit skirt, or a staple sweater that is classic and timeless.

French women gravitate to sleek and alluring black and brown sheer tights in the winter, whether layered under jeans with pointed-toe pumps or worn with an LBD. It’s the preferred way to stay warm and look chic.

Sleek leather knee-high boots are a favorite among the French fashion set—which they love styling with mini and midi skirts. Choose a timeless pair with a flat, kitten, or block heel in black, brown, or burgundy.
