Try as I might, I don’t think anyone will be mistaking me for a French girl anytime soon. But will that stop me from taking style cues from the best-dressed women in Paris? Absolutely not. When I was recently browsing H&M’s new arrival section, I came across the perfect plaid blazer with an incredibly affordable price tag that instantly reminded me of French style—so obviously I had to share it with you.
H&M’s new blazer is a steal at $35 and looks very similar to versions worn by Jeanne Damas, Sabina Socol, and other Parisian influencers I know you all love to follow on the ‘gram. Scroll down to shop the blazer that will inevitably sell out and see how women are styling the wardrobe staple in the City of Light.
It also boasts great reviews on H&M’s website, so there’s practically no downside to this investment.
Salomé Mory styles her plaid blazer with a basic tee-and-jeans combo with Chanel ballet flats.
Jeanne Damas styled her version with a knotted belt and flowy trousers.
Like Salomé, Sabina Socol also wears her blazer with a basic white top and jeans.
I love everything about this outfit—especially the plaid bag.
As you can tell, most French women style plaid blazers in understated ways, making their outfits super easy to copy.
Yet another example of French women expertly dressing up tee-and-jeans combos.
Hurry: This gem won’t be on sale forever.
A beautiful alternative in case the H&M version sells out.
This looks so much more expensive than it really is.
Another great plaid option for winter.
This collarless silhouette gives this blazer such a sleek look.
This one has rave reviews on Nordstrom’s website thanks to the quality and fit.
