A French woman has just come across Shopbop for the first time—28 fall items she would love to have.

A French woman has just come across Shopbop for the first time—28 fall items she would love to have.

      We've discussed French-girl style frequently enough to dress Parisians from memory at this stage: the trench coat, the small gold hoops, the trousers that do all the heavy lifting. What we haven't done is observe her shopping, so we placed her in front of Shopbop for the first time to see what she'd select. I suspect she would bypass the evening dresses entirely and go straight for coats and jewelry, as that’s where French-girl logic resides—in the pieces you instinctively reach for. Here are 28 items she'd collect in her cart within five minutes, with no need for imports.

      **Lioness**

      Penny Trench Coat

      The trench coat is essential, and this one offers the classic shape without the classic price.

      **Polo Ralph Lauren**

      Cotton Oxford Long Sleeve Buttondown

      This is the shirt that serves as the foundation of every French-girl wardrobe.

      **En Saison**

      Mischa Mini Dress

      My perfect minidress for transitioning into fall when it’s still hot.

      **La Ligne**

      Cotton Poplin Colby Pants

      White trousers may seem risky until she wears them; then they become the only pants that elevate a plain T-shirt.

      **JENNY BIRD**

      Small Staple Hoops

      These hoops are considered staples for a reason.

      This completely resolves the dressing dilemma.

      **Source Unknown**

      Suki Collar Blazer

      Yes, Source Unknown is now available at Shopbop.

      **AEYDE**

      Theo Leather Knee-High Boots

      I wear boots like these daily in fall, and a French woman would too.

      **Madewell**

      Oval Plaque Buckle Belt

      A belt that adds richness to any outfit.

      **Stella McCartney**

      Falabella Sunglasses

      Never overlook the impact of an amazing pair of sunglasses.

      This skirt gives any look a polished finish, especially with the trench layered over it.

      **Good American**

      Good Waist Palazzo Ankle Jeans

      Tonal denim does the job.

      **Still Here**

      Childhood Jeans

      We can't discuss French-girl style without mentioning denim.

      Three strap options ensure this bag can transition from shoulder to top handle, depending on her mood.

      **Reformation**

      Inez Flat Mules

      No laces, no buckles—just slip on and off you go.

      **Guest in Residence**

      The Wild Rag Triangle Scarf

      The quickest way to make any outfit appear complete.

      **SHASHI**

      Carter Pendant Necklace

      This single piece enhances an outfit more than a collection of five thinner chains.

      **Luv Aj**

      Baby Amalfi Tube Hoop Earrings

      Small gold hoops are an accessory that a French-girl wardrobe simply cannot lack.

      A navy blazer with gold buttons that looks much more luxurious than $99.

      **La Ligne**

      Solid Lean Lines Cashmere Sweater

      A tan cashmere crewneck designed for minimalism, which requires true restraint to achieve.

      **By Adina Eden**

      Bezel Charm & Colored Rope Necklace

      This cord necklace featuring a single bezel charm appears to be sourced from a Parisian flea market.

      **Guest in Residence**

      Cashmere Grizzly Jacket

      A cashmere jacket achieves cozy-chic effortlessly.

      **Madewell**

      Ruffle A-Line Midi Dress

      This dress stands alone in warm September but also layers well under a cool jacket by late October.

      **Madewell**

      Porto Penny Loafers

      Footwear that makes jeans look intentional rather than hastily thrown on.

      **Reformation**

      Dominique Knee Boots

      These are perfect when paired with a midi skirt and trench.

      This ensemble feels suitable for a trip to the market, whether along the Seine or in Union Square.

      A delicate gold chain designed for layering, priced affordably enough to purchase without a second thought.

      **Le Specs**

      Subzero Sunglasses

      The simplest outfit enhancement I can envision.
