The Secrets of Parisian Chic

Ines de la Fressange's personal style is chic yet relaxed in every situation. While a navy-and-white striped nautical top with slim, cropped jeans and flats is a classic French look, it's harder to pinpoint how Parisians unfailingly blend elegance and allure with such ease.

In this sequel to her bestseller Parisian Chic, the world's favorite style icon demonstrates how to achieve her quintessentially Parisian look throughout the year. Her style secrets start with the building blocks of wardrobe staples-a LBD that can be dressed up or down, timeless riding boots you'll wear for a lifetime, or the perfect pair of jeans - and combine with seasonal items like costume bangles, a top in this season's on-trend color, or the right shade of lip color.

In this new volume, Ines expands on what you need for every season and how - by incorporating a multitude of unforgettable French style details- you can transform yourself into a true Parisienne.
