Really loved your contents, Ms. Arielle! Just came accross your video yesterday while researching for my upcoming trip to Paris next week. I must say your contents are really helpful, detailed, comprehensive and overall great! Now I am more prepared because of your vids. Thank you!! 💕💓
Great video of easy, simple ways to style. I think Americans tend to "try too hard" to be stylish. I've been going to France since the 1990s and am about to return for my fourth trip to Paris in the last 1.5 years. I'm probably your oldest viewer at 70! I enjoy seeing a younger perspective on the city as all of my friends in Paris are over 50. (I stay in the 2eme near the Sézanne store. I have a few tops, sweaters, and the Scott trench and don't feel at all that I'm dressing "too young") I usually take loose jeans in a medium wash, much like yours (mine are DL 1961 Enora Cigarette), a pair of black and a dark wash blue in the DL1961 straight leg Patti. I use a carry-on only, and those three pairs go with every top and layer I take. So, with two tanks, two tees, two button up short-sleeve, two button-up long sleeve; two cardigans, one blazer, a weather coat (either my trench or a lighter coat) I have endless outfit combinations. I take sneakers, loafers, and one nicer flat. I may add sandals if the weather is warm enough. If I'm planning on a more elevated evening, my Vince silk slacks are a go-to. I buy most of my lotions and other toiletries when there, taking only my favorite mascara and tinted sunscreen (instead of foundation).
Your best video yet. Finally, great ideas presented as options, not rules to follow. Do you comply with preferred fabrics (linen, cotton, silk, etc)? Are cobble stones hard on your shoes? Especially loved the black dress on you. Have you discontinues leggings for daily wear? Great job, Arielle!
perfect timing! Packing for a trip to visit my son in a month. And it is so much like my outfits from the 90s when I lived in Paris. French husband was really keen on choosing clothes for me, but I mostly wore the same 10+ outfits, jeans and dresses
Thanks for your video! When I’m in Paris (3-4 months a year, fall and spring) I wear booties a lot - ones that are comfortable enough to wear for hours of walking. And like you showed us, I always take a long, navy blazer - and long skirts for biking. Also, I don’t carry purses - only totes (sometimes with purse inside), to deter pickpockets on the Metro!
Great video! I live in Calgary and absolutely every outfit you showed is what I wear here in the summer!! So things are not so different. I think Toronto which is where you are from might be more dressy but not sure…..
Those pants are called stove pipe. Because old style stoves would have similar style of pipes going up. At least that’s what they’re called in North America.
Love that you emphasized the hair. That's where I feel the most culture shock going back and forth, every time lol. I tend to straighten my hair while I'm in the U.S. and not at all in France. It totally sucks that the inappropriate behavior of disgusting men has caused you to dress differently. There are lots of things I don't love about getting older, but less of that gross attention is not one of them (I'm 45).
Love your style and fit figure. You are so right about American diet as it is so bad that I only buy organic. Wished we had the control over our food has France.
Paris women used to dress so chique. Definatly short skirts and always always high heals. When flats become in fashion you could see women standing on there toes in bars cause there hamstrings were so short so they were in pain standing on there whole foot. It is interesting how things are changing. ooh and An other stories is an HM brand
Hi A. Thank you for your video's; could you please advise how your shoe size converts to men's size? I am from US women size 6.5 or 7 how convert to mens.

Love your videos, seem .ore like a friend for a lonley single. Thanks again. Gloria.

Could you do this for winter please! I’ll be going during NYE :)
Bringing dresses in at the sides is quite easy! It was one of the first sewing things I learnt how to do, and I did it without a sewing machine :)
Or have them taken in at somewhere that does 'retouches', surely cheaper than reinvesting in a new set of dresses?

I visit Paris every year, I generally wear black jeans and a black cotton top. I tend to blend.

A big tote, open on top? Hard to picture.
Would love to see one of these for fall/winter! Totally coincidentally I will be in Paris in October... 🤔
Me too.
I I had that black dress. I would wear it every freaking day!
