      Susie Wright is celebrated for her effortlessly chic fashion sense. As a former Nordstrom buyer turned content creator (be sure to visit So Susie), she has curated a wardrobe over the years that consists of modern, versatile pieces that are both easy to wear and refined. An interesting tidbit: Her daughter, Emily Wright, is 30 years younger but shares a preference for similar styles. This is likely not surprising, as personal style transcends age. The pair recently traveled to Paris and indeed brought along matching items. Below is a list of the pieces both women wore that may inspire your upcoming travel outfits or general looks. You'll notice how they styled these pieces differently to reflect their unique aesthetics while exploring France. Additionally, they both opted for the same type of travel outfit: a trench coat paired with loose, drawstring pants. Keep reading for more.

      **What a Mother and Daughter Packed for a Paris Trip**

      1. **Long Coats**

      "Trench coats and long wool coats (we each packed both) were the most utilized items during our trip. Choosing a slightly oversized style is essential for layering over sweaters in colder weather. We often draped a sweater over our shoulders for extra warmth." — Susie Wright

      - **Topshop**: Mock Neck Car Coat

      - **COS**: Belted Double-Faced Wool Long Coat

      - **& Other Stories**: Longline Double Breasted Coat

      - **Nordstrom**: One-Button Wool Blend Coat

      2. **Gray Sweaters**

      "A gray sweater may seem basic, but we both own a classic crew that we frequently wear, whether on vacation or at home. Pair your light gray sweater with a white tee underneath or tie it around your shoulders; it matches almost anything!" — Wright

      - **Nordstrom**: Cashmere Crewneck Sweater

      - **Nordstrom**: Crewneck Wool & Cashmere Sweater

      - **Sold Out NYC**: The Cashmere Signature Crew

      - **ANINE BING**: Lee Crew Sweater

      3. **Zara Ponchos and Scarf Sweaters/Coats**

      "We both strolled through Paris in a Zara poncho along with a scarf sweater or scarf coat. Interestingly, I noticed at least five women wearing the same items while walking in the Saint Germain area! They are warm, stylish, and budget-friendly. We adore them." — Wright

      - **ZARA**: Wool Blend Short Coat With Scarf

      - **ZARA**: Wool Blend Short Coat With Scarf

      - **ZARA**: Oversized Wool Blend Scarf Coat ZW Collection

      4. **Loafers**

      "These were our go-to shoes throughout the trip, even while walking all day. Comfortable and fashionable, our loafers often felt more pleasant than sneakers! I opted for a classic mule loafer, while Em preferred a chunkier design." — Wright

      - **Steve Madden**: Stewart Convertible Penny Loafers

      - **Tory Burch**: Classic Penny Loafers

      - **Schutz**: Tyche Genuine Calf Hair Penny Loafers

      - **SARTO by Franco Sarto**: Lainey Loafer

      5. **Oversize Blazers**

      "We both carried looser, slightly oversized blazers. Em paired hers with leggings and knee-high boots during the day, while I dressed mine up with Frame leather pants for nighttime outings. They work beautifully with dresses or slip skirts as well." — Wright

      - **ZARA**: Oversized Double Breasted Blazer With Lapel Appliqués

      - **Topshop**: Oversize Houndstooth Blazer

      - **Kenneth Cole**: Three-Button Boyfriend Blazer

      - **Almina Concept**: Oversized Double Button Blazer

      6. **Crossbody Bags**

      "Every person wandering the picturesque neighborhoods of Paris seemed to sport a stylish crossbody bag, helping us blend in perfectly. We each packed black bags and used them daily. They are both practical and fashionable." — Wright

      - **Bottega Veneta**: Concert Intrecciato Mini Leather Crossbody Bag

      - **Madewell**: The Mini Belted Genuine Haircalf Crossbody Bag

      - **Tory Burch**: Romy Zip Top Leather Crossbody Bag
