40 Expensive-Looking Pieces From The Affordable Brands French Girls Love

"French-girl style" is such a common style type that people refer to, but I think we can all agree at this point that not all French women wear the same things. That said, just as with any part of the world, there are similarities to how those citizens dress, and they certainly don't go unnoticed when it comes to the French. Many want to replicate that effortlessly cool way in which they dress, and one way to do so is by identifying the popular brands among them.

If you follow many stylish French girls on Instagram, you've probably seen some similar brand tags by now, as I have. I compiled the most affordable ones for you all in one place, and chose some of the most expensive-looking pieces to shop (because why not?). Scroll on to familiarize yourself with the brands and shop chic pieces to wear this summer and beyond for the easy Parisian look.

Wearing: Mango Openwork Cotton Dress ($60)

Look closely and you'll see this dress has a hint of shimmer.

Ballet flats are back but for the French, they never left.

I actually own this shirt, and the quality is great.

Sure to come in handy.

I highly doubt these will stay in stock for long, as they could easily pass for designer.

Wearing: COS shirt

Found you something new to pair with all of those white tank tops.

This will take you straight into fall.

Loewe vibes.

French-girl stripes with a preppy twist.

I wouldn't be surprised to find this in a French girl's cart.

Wearing: & Other Stories jacket and skirt

& Other Stories designs many of its pieces (this dress included) in Paris.

Tuck this into high-waisted jeans for the most "French girl" look.

& Other Stories shoes are so good—here's the proof.

Fall can't get here soon enough.

It comes in red too.

Wearing: The Frankie Shop pants

The Frankie Shop just opened a store in Paris, so you're about to see a lot of French girls in this popular blazer.

This may not be the most affordable item on this list, but it's worth the investment.

Pick a color, any color.

Represent.

These feel like the French-girl version of cargo pants.

Wearing: Reformation pants

Love to see a comfortable version of the corset-top trend.

French girls love a good miniskirt.

You know an item is good when Reformation keeps releasing it in new colors.

It's giving night out in Paris.

These are definite French-girl jeans.

Wearing: Agolde jacket

As you can see, this jacket looks very chic with a skirt.

Agolde isn't just for jeans.

Think of Paris in the '90s and you probably imagine people wearing these jeans.

It gets hot in France too.

Much more affordable than all of those other leather pants.

Wearing: Réalisation The Stephanie Dress ($225)

A Réalisation is undoubtedly part of the French girl summer uniform.

I've come across these sweatshirts on several French girls' IG feeds.

Also cute with a sweater come fall.

This would fit several baguettes (sorry, I had to).

I'm not surprised this is selling out.

Wearing: Sézane pants

Just a pretty summer top.

For vacations to the French Riviera. 

It feels as though the French basically started the cardigan trend.

It's a party skirt.

Throw it on and go.
