Hey love! Let me know, am I forgetting any Parisian style secrets? I'm all ears. Leave me a comment. Bisou, Bri

@nlbhaduri 4 года назад

I hate to say it...no matter what you wear, if you don't bring good manners and a willingness to enjoy/respect another culture, you will ALWAYS LOOK LIKE A TOURIST.

@BriLamberson Год назад

That’s SO true. 🙏🇫🇷💕✌️

@PhoebeBell-vr5qw 4 года назад

Trainers like converse & adidas are actually very common in the streets of Paris. There is no rule against wearing them because it’s a practical shoe when you are walking as much as they do. Women wear them with just about anything. The woven bag in the background that you plan on taking is very busy. They are usually one solid color. The smaller cross-bag looks pretty ideal to carry. I’ll have to catch up on your recent videos to see what type of footage you were able to capture of the locals.

@BriLamberson 4 года назад

Thanks so much for your lovely comment. Hope you're well!

@28peruvian 4 года назад

No Yoga pants, crop tops, leggings, skimpy shorts, sweatpants, heavy makeup...specially those red or blue barrettes i see tourists wearing around any areas of the Eiffel Tower. And don’t forget to say Bonjour or Bonsoir when entering any establishment, specially if you do not speak French as you will be ignored.

How lovely! I couldn't agree more.

@merrywalsh2809 3 года назад

Basically, you are going to a very urban and walkable environment, so you need to kick it up a notch, layer, and wear nice shoes you can walk in. A crossbody bag for security, and know key French phrases and manners.

@BriLamberson 3 года назад

You got it! Nailed it.

Do not wear heals and any shoe that will cause blisters. I went to Paris last July when France won the World Cup!! I wore cute leather mule flats and after hours of walking , I noticed the top of my foot was bloody!!! If this happens, go to the nearest Pharmacie. They were very helpful and had lots of blister covers. The big square ones did the trick. Wearing trainers or tennis shoes are the shoes of choice!! It seemed like women were much more casual with the footwear in Paris . We did London a few years ago and Ladies were dressed up more. with dressy flats and low heeled shoes.

@BriLamberson 4 года назад

Hi Lori! So sorry for the late reply and to hear that that happened to you. What a bummer. I noticed the same thing when I was there. A lot of casual style is creeping in.

@louisericketts6738 4 года назад

I had a huge blister on my heel too the last time I visited Paris. Fortunately the weather was good so I wore sandals for a few days. It's important to remember that to enjoy Paris you have to do a lot of walking.

What I love most about Paris street wear? No athlesure. Oh my -I am so tired of our American athlesure trend-love the elegance and mystery of Parisian street style. I don’t need to know you exercise-show me in your healthy glow and how you hold the lines of your elegant pieces. Right? I think this is why some of us in America are so in love with Paris Street fashion because our street fashion consists of spandex rear ends!

Good style advice for those who are looking to blend in, and I love the shoe brand advice! However, I would like to see more personal expression and less beige trenchcoats, navy blazers (though I am wearing one in my profile picture...) and two-toned flats. I've been to Paris 6 or 7 times, and was supposed to go again this month.

@jpm12343 Год назад

I've been plugged in to a couple of your "how to dress in Paris" videos. The wardrobe I've chosen is from suggestions on the internet about Parisian dressing and how not to look too touristy. I don't care much about looking touristy, but I'd rather blend in. I just watched another person's video on Parisian dressing, and it's totally the opposite of what I've seen on your vids and on the internet in general. There were French women dressed in high-end designer pieces like Gucci and Hermes. The jewelry was very bold and bulky and costume and high end (like a rainbow Rolex). I'd prefer to be more minimal and not stand out with baubles and bangles, so I believe you're correct. I've chosen black ballet flats, nautical stripes, plain white button-downs, plain T shirts. Elegant but not ostentatious. The only thing I just did was purchase 2 sisal basket bags online, and then noticed that the genuine French women called them "cliche". I'm a Californian, so anything actually goes where I live. I would prefer to wear the sisal basket bags (even in the fall, when I'm going to France) because carrying a backpack really makes an American girl stand out like a sore thumb. I think your packiing tips and clothing choices (clothing capsule) are spot on with my internet research. I'm also glad I bought a plain blazer to dress up plain straight black pants.

@BriLamberson Год назад

Hey there! I’m so glad that you found this video helpful. I actually just recorded another video this week that I’ll be publishing later today! It’s an updated version of what to wear in Paris. It sounds like you’re on the right track! All the pieces that you picked out are beautiful. One thing I will note is that I did see women in Paris wearing sisal bags but they were 100% natural with no coloring whatsoever. And many of them were quite on the small side. I definitely agree with you that a backpack would be out of sorts. But I would even recommend carrying one or two bags with you. A lot of people in Paris are currently wearing fun smaller bags that are more unique or tote bags and then their regular purse.

@namewithheld5883 2 года назад

I would avoid wearing gold necklaces, as there have been instances of chains being ripped off women's throats. Also, if you are a tourist you will need comfortable shoes for walking. Save the stylish shoes for the evening when you go for dinner.

@jpm12343 Год назад

@@BriLamberson I just bought one for Paris for 2024 and one for Los Angeles instead of my trademark backpack bag. Hearing that the straw bag was "cliche" in Paris just spoiled my enjoyment of my purchase. Methinks I'll take it anyway. Thanks for re-introducing me to the sisal basket bag. I had one 10 years ago. Now for me, it's retro boho.

@annamacm4063 3 года назад

I would say that these rules don’t just apply to Paris… but are about how not to stand out like an American absolutely anywhere in the world. I live in the Highlands of Scotland and we can always spot an American tourist at 100 paces. Can I add one more item to the list of “don’ts “? Don’t speak louder than is necessary in order to be heard … overly loud voices is the other sure sign that Americans are around and it can be really quite painful to endure if it goes on for a long time, in a setting like a restaurant for instance.

@BriLamberson 3 года назад

Agreed! At times it’s even painful me as an American. Not all Americans are loud fortunately. It’s a generalization.

Driving lessons from someone who’s never been behind the wheel? DO first, THEN teach!
