It would probably surprise you how many times I day I say or think the following words: What would a French girl do? I’m a self-confessed Francophile and find always myself inspired by the French woman or Parisian’s approach to, well, just about everything! Be it the beauty tools they use or the homeware they decorate their spaces with , I’m constantly looking to my favourite French tastemakers to see how they navigate their daily lives. Why? Because I find them to be so inherently chic.
So, seeing as it’s Black Friday and all, I thought I’d approach the sales with the same discerning eye the French women I admire would. While I know not all French women subscribe to the classic and elegant aesthetic they’ve become tethered to, the ones I loyally follow do and, as such, I’ve honed my edit to fit that mood.
Taking to the high street, I scoured the Black Friday sales of H&M, COS and Mango to try to find the deals French women with timeless taste would pick up. Below I’ve created an edit of 24 discounted pieces that will stand the test of time and make for very chic investments, regardless of them being on sale.
With the sales set to end at each brand at different times, if you happen to spot something you like, I suggest you take immediate action. These deals are too good and are far too elegant to hang around for long. Bonne chance!
