PARISIAN CHIC


Parisian girls carry an effortless elegance that feels relaxed yet refined. Their look isn’t about following every trend but instead mastering a few classic pieces with an individual twist. They move through the city always looking chic without ever appearing as though they've tried too hard.


Key Elements:


  • Light Pastel Colors: Soft, romantic tones like blush pink, creamy beige, and light lavender are staples, lending a delicate and airy feel to any outfit

  • Flowy Clothing: Fabrics that move naturally and breathe with ease - silk blouses, relaxed trousers, and airy dresses

  • Boho Chic Belts: Stylish belts add a touch of bohemian flair, perfect for accentuating the waist, a hallmark of Parisian style

  • Over the knee Boots: Chic, sophisticated, and practical, OTK boots add height and structure to an outfit

  • Feminine Touches: Pieces that feel feminine and refined, like lace details, delicate ruffles, or a subtly fitted blazer

  • Minimalist Jewelry: Understated accessories like a simple gold necklace or a dainty bracelet offer just the right amount of sparkle

  • French hairstyles: The french braid and twist are some of my favs!


Brands:

  1. Sandro

  2. Musier Paris



 

SPANISH ALLURE


Spanish style is vibrant and eye catching, often making you want to know where every piece is from! Spanish girls dress with a mix of color, texture, and unique elements such as vivid prints, standing out from the crowd.


Key Elements:


  • Vibrant Prints and Colors: Rich colors, like orange and yellow, and patterns such as intricate florals, are my favorite parts of Spanish style!

  • Flouncy Silhouettes: Ruffled blouses, skirts, and dresses give outfits a romantic feel and add volume

  • Studs and Textured Jewelry: Studded accessories, from belts to bags, add edginess while layered jewelry in various textures, like woven, metallic, and beaded, gives a touch of bohemian charm

  • Maxi Skirts and Flowy Dresses: Long, flowy skirts and dresses are staples, perfect from the day into the night

  • Wavy, Natural Hair: Natural waves or curls, often worn in a messy low bun, give an effortless, slightly undone look that adds to a relaxed vibe


Brands:

  1. Susmies

  2. Brownie


 

STOCKHOLM COOL


Though Scandinavian style is known for its minimalist approach and refined silhouettes, Stockholm girls take an edgier approach. Mixing pastel muted tones with dark ones, as well as classic hairstyles with rock style jewelry, the Stockholm girl feels daring and rebellious.


Key Elements:


  • Muted Pastels and Dark Neutrals: Light pastel colors like soft blush, icy blue, or beige are paired with dark greys, blacks, and navy

  • Edgy, Urban Aesthetic: Accessories like structured leather bags or studded clothing add a touch of urban edge

  • Layering: Layered outfits with shirts under sweaters, jackets over hoodies, or coats with scarves add depth and texture. My favorite is the touch of lace!

  • Bootcut and Flared Jeans: A must have for the Stockholm style! Preferably a darker wash

  • Silver Jewelry: Add a stack of chunky silver jewelry to complement the cool color palette

  • Effortless Hair: The go to hairstyle is often a soft blowout or a half up, half down look


Brands:

  • Berglarsen

  • Le Capsole



 

DUTCH FLAIR


Dutch style is cheerful, fresh, and inspired by the charming landscapes of the Netherlands. Whether cycling through the tulip fields or strolling by the canals, the Dutch girl will wear a whimsy, comforting, and playful outfit with eye catching details.


Key Elements:


  • Quilted Jackets: A cozy staple for transitional seasons providing warmth and texture all year long

  • Floral Prints: Inspired by the Dutch tulip fields, floral patterns in dresses, skirts, and blouses bring a touch of natural beauty and a cheerful vibe

  • Warm, Vibrant Colors: Rich, uplifting tones like yellow, coral, and pink brighten the look, creating a warm and lively palette

  • Charm Necklaces: Delicate charm necklaces add a personal touch, often featuring pendants that reflect hobbies and travels

  • Playful Spring Aesthetic: Lightweight fabrics, flowy skirts, and breezy blouses


Brands:

  • Scandivv

  • Fashion Tiger



 

LONDON GRACE


London style is the epitome of timeless sophistication, blending traditional elegance with modern touches. London girls have mastered the art of matching neutral palettes with structured silhouettes, creating outfits that look graceful and current.


Key Elements:


  • Trench Coats: The ultimate London staple, trench coats are elegant yet functional, offering a sleek outer layer for unpredictable weather

  • Neutrals and Darker Colors: A palette of beige, cream, black, and navy keeps the look understated, with accents of richer tones like burgundy for a twist

  • Tailored Clothing: Creating a structured, streamlined silhouette that’s ready for any occasion

  • Simple Accessories: Simple yet elegant pearl necklaces, silver studs, or tennis bracelets add a touch of timeless sophistication

  • Polished Hair: Sleek, glossy hair worn down completes the look, maintaining an air of effortless refinement


Brands:

  • Smez Studios

  • Kade Women



 


COPENHAGEN DREAMING


Copenhagen style reflects the essence of Scandinavian living - simple, functional, and chic. Danish girls blend casual comfort with unique, eclectic touches, perfectly suited to the cozy streets and cool climate of the city.


Key Elements:


  • Simple yet eclectic Outfits are clean and minimal but often include a quirky accessory or that adds character and personality

  • Neutral Base with Pops of Color: Muted tones like beige, white, and baby blue are paired with vibrant accents, creating a unique look

  • Comfy Knits: Whether its a lightweight knit or oversized sweater, layering with a knit is a key element for Copenhagen girls!

  • Relaxed Silhouettes: Wide-leg pants, linen fabrics, and flowy dresses create a laidback, effortless vibe. The focus is on comfort without sacrificing style, creating outfits that look natural and approachable

  • Effortless Hairstyles: Hair is typically natural and low maintenance - my favorite is the simple low bun


Brands:

  • Inwear

  • DawnxDare
