Paris Lookbook

Happy Friday everyone! I’m finally getting around to recapping the outfits from our recent trip to France. As I mentioned in previous posts, this was our first time to Europe, and I would definitely recommend spending time in Paris, but also exploring the outer cities of France if time allows. The countryside is absolutely breathtaking in the Spring, and a fun juxtaposition from the hustle and bustle of the big city of Paris (which is equally as beautiful- just a different vibe!) No matter where you choose to spend your time, there is a lot of walking involved. I actually love to walk around a new city and feel that it is one of the best ways to get acquainted with the local hot spots. Be sure to bring along comfortable booties, sneakers, or flats. One of my favorite parts of planning for a vacation, is planning out the outfits for each day. We had a full itinerary, and a full suitcase to match! Here are some of the looks from our trip. Shoppable details will appear above each image.

Enjoying Breakfast on the Balcony // Adjusting to the time change was way easier when the mornings were spent relaxing on our balcony with a delicious breakfast. These pink lace PJs are sold out, but I’ve linked a very similar pair here.

Outfit Details: SHEIN SILK PAJAMA SET 

A Beautiful Cruise on the Seine River followed by lunch on the town // This was one of my favorite outfits during the trip! We enjoyed a sensational river cruise where we were able to see the sights and learn more about the famous landmarks. I loved the tie detail on my blouse and the sweet ruffle sleeve.

Outfit Details: SHEIN OVERALL DRESS, SHEIN SILK BLOUSE, BP. BOOTIES

Champagne Tasting and Vineyard Tours in Epernay, France // Hands down, one of the best days of our trip. Being able to tour the vineyards that produce every single bottle of champagne in the world was an incredible experience! This maxi dress is so flowey and makes you feel like a million bucks– for under $25!

Outfit Details: SHEIN MAXI DRESS, SOLUDOS TIE ESPADRILLES 

Exploring the Palace of Versailles // The photos simply cannot do this palace justice. This is one of the places I was most looking forward to visiting, and it did not disappoint. We rented bikes and explored the grounds just outside the palace, and I had one of those moments where I just looked around and couldn’t believe where I was. Versailles is such a magical city!

Outfit details: SHEIN GINGHAM PANTS, MAC RUBY WOO LIPSTICK, BRIXTON CAP, ASOS WHITE LONG SLEEVE 

 

Out & About // Hubby and I spent quite a bit of our days walking around our neighborhood in the trendy 9th arrondissement. Whether enjoying a light lunch, or mid-day cappuccino we enjoyed conversing with locals and taking in the sights and sounds.

A day spent at the Louvre + The Top of the Eiffel Tower // One could easily spend every single day of their trip at the Louvre, there is just that much to see. If you only have a few hours to spend there, choose a few things you absolutely need to see. We chose the Monalisa (of course), and the Ancient Egypt exhibit with a few other things along the way. In terms of the Eiffel Tower, you can reserve tickets ahead of time which is highly recommended. We booked through our hotel concierge, and opted to pay a few extra Euro to skip the lines and go all the way to the top by way of elevator rather than stairs- totally worth it! Those lines are pretty substantial especially with the added security efforts at the Eiffel Tower currently.

Outfit Details: BLACK BP. V-NECK, ABERCROMBIE ANKLE JEANS, SOLUDOS TIE ESPADRILLES 

Visiting Montmartre // This was the cutest hillside town! Filled with street artists, cute cafes, local vendors and bright colors, it’s worth the short walk from the center of Paris to this district in the 18th Arrondissement.

Outfit details: ABERCROMBIE ANKLE JEANS, SAM EDELMAN ESPADRILLES, STRIPED MUSCLE TANK (similar)

And last but not least, bidding farewell to one of the best cities in the world the only way I know how…in a Pink Tutu!

Outfit details: PINK TULLE SKIRT, SOLUDOS TIE ESPADRILLES, WHITE LONG SLEEVE
