I'm ready for a French summer and these 5 items help me get the look

Like many other fashion enthusiasts, I spent a good part of my time dreaming about Paris. There's just something about running around the city of love with a baguette in hand - taking in some of the most beautiful and historic architecture the world has to offer and walking side by side with well-dressed people running from the Louvre to a fancy cafe that I completely fell in love with.

Unfortunately for me, my dreams of galavanting around the Eiffel Tower are still only dreams since I have not yet traveled to Paris, but a way of living my Parisian fantasy is taking notes from some of my favorite French fashion designers when it comes to my wardrobe. I've wanted to create a French summer vibe for a long time, and this summer I decided it was time. After scouring the Instagram and TikTok accounts of some of the stylish Parisians I have on my moodboard, I found five chic posts that will help me achieve the Parisian-approved look I'm looking for. Simple dresses, cat-eye sunglasses, scarves, chic tailored jeans and linen pants are what I would call Parisian summer style essentials.

I've rounded up a few items from some of my favorite retailers to help me have these five pieces in my closet. Keep scrolling to see what I'm buying for a French girl summer.
