Effortless Styling Tips to Steal from Paris Fashion Week

For the final leg of Fashion Month, editors, buyers, and influencers always bring their A-game to Paris Fashion Week. There were polished, color-drenched looks as well as more laid-back menswear-inspired outfits, including leather bomber jackets and Adidas track pants. Some of the best looks captured that distinctly Parisian effortlessness, particularly when it came to styling, like a denim jacket wrapped around the shoulders, or a bright red cardigan tied around the waist over a white button-down shirt.

Ahead, see and shop the best looks and trends from Paris Fashion Week street style that you can emulate today.

1. The Relaxed Blazer Over a Pastel V-Neck Knit

For an outfit pairing that you can wear tomorrow, layer a pastel V-neck sweater, like this one in a cool sage hue, underneath a black blazer. Let your white t-shirt peek out from the top ever so slightly; it’s the easiest styling trick, and it looks incredibly chic.

2. The Textured Knit Tank Layered Over Classic Workwear

Layering during the fall is a must. One way to achieve this is to look for a textured knit tank top, one that is crocheted or made from a similar thick, woven material. (You might already own one from the summer.) Wear it over a black turtleneck and dark trousers to add unexpected texture and dimension to your outfit, creating a more fashion-forward look for fall than a standard sweater and trouser combo.

3. The Floral Skirt With the Suede Blazer

One way to incorporate a warmer-weather floral print into your fall wardrobe is to style it with an autumn staple, such as a suede blazer. The sumptuous fabric paired with a bright floral palette is perfect for wearing on strolls through the park when fall foliage is at its peak.

4. The Denim-Jacket-as-Scarf Approach

Instead of wrapping a sweater around your shoulders, use a denim jacket instead. Try this look with a poplin button-down shirt and a black midi skirt.

5. A Statement Scarf Coat Is All You Need

Here’s one sign that the scarf coat trend isn’t going anywhere. For an outfit that you can walk out the door in minutes and still look polished, wear a scarf coat with your sleekest wardrobe staples, like black trousers, pointed flats, and an east-west bag.

6. The Leather Bomber Jacket and Track Pants

Take a cue from this look and break out your track pants. Balance the athleisure with a leather bomber jacket, a bright red bag, and retro-style sneakers.

7. Tie a Red Cardigan Around Your Waist

This look features a cardigan made into a belt, a clever styling trick you can crib, or, simply tie a red cardigan around your waist. The contrast between the white button-down and the red knit gives it an artful twist that is low-effort. Lean into minimalist accessories for the rest of the outfit, like a crossbody bag, and Phoebe Philo’s ’90s style pumps.
