French Fashion (Women’s and Men’s)

I’ll be honest with you guys. I’m not really into fashion and therefore know very little about it. Half of my clothes have graphics on them (and a lot of those are Doctor Who and Harry potter). That said, I’m really interested in how people from other countries dress in their everyday lives. And because of that, I’m going to be focusing more on everyday life and less on model type fashion that no normal person can afford.

It seems like doing a blog about French fashion should be a given. After all, Paris is regarded by most to be the fashion capital of the world, and there are plenty of fashion boutiques in Paris to keep it that way. Not to mention a lot of French fashion brands have their headquarters in Paris (brands like Chanel, Luis Vuitton, Dior, Lacroix and more).

These are what every blog post I’ve read agrees on for French fashion (this applies to both women and men):

  • Sneakers are only okay to wear if you’re working out
  • Outfits should be a bit dressed up
  • At the same time, keep it simple
  • Spend time looking for a style that suits your body type
  • Most of your wardrobe should be neutral colors: black, white and beige (your accessories can add pops of color to your wardrobe)
  • Quality matters more than quantity (spend more on a few quality items rather than buying a bunch of cheap items)
  • Scarves
  • Layer your outfit
  • Don’t spend a lot of time on your hair

Speaking of models, France has cracked down on the promotion of anorexia this year by passing a law in May that makes it a requirement for models to get certified that they’re healthy by a doctor (every 2 years). And in addition to this, not disclosing that you retouched a photo is subject to a fine. Read more about this in the New York Times:

  22. Der Hersteller Ecco gehört zu den führenden Anbietern von Sportart Schuhen für Männer und
    Frauen. Dieses Modell besteht aus 100 Prozent Leder,
    das Innenmaterial ist aus Textilstoff, die Sohle aus Kunststoff.
    Die Modelle sind allesamt auf die besonderen Bedürfnisse bei der Ausdauersportart abgestimmt.
    Auch diese Schuhe können fest mit Schnürsenkeln verschlossen werden. Ausgezeichnet ist die Passgenauigkeit, denn die Größen dieser Nordic
    Walking Schuhe Herren fallen regulär aus. Ein weiterer Vorteil dieser Schuhe
    ist die Wasserdichte. Ecco hat bei diesem Modell Nordic Walking Schuhe Herren wieder alles getoppt.
    Die Schuhe sind praktisch, bequem und das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt komplett.
    Besonders gelobt wurden diese Nordic Walking Schuhe Herren wegen ihrer sehr guten Verarbeitung, der Robustheit sowie dem sehr
    bequemen Tragekomfort – auch auf schwierigem Untergrund und für längere Touren. Zudem ist
    er optisch so gestaltet, dass er auch umstandslos und von den Käufern sehr gerne auch als normaler Freizeitschuh oder sogar im Büro
    getragen werden kann. Die Fersen sind in diesen Schuhen sehr weich gepolstert, was den Tragekomfort noch
    erhöht. Auch das eingearbeitete Fußbett dieser Nordic Walking Schuhe
    Herren hat sehr gute Bewertungen erhalten. Es herrscht so konzipiert, dass es
    sich jedem Fuß ideal anpasst.

  23. ABER: Wenn alle wichtigen Komponenten im Gerät perfekt zusammenpassen, dann
    schafft etwa ein Bagotte Saugroboter eben auch Reinigungsergebnisse,
    die sich nahebei an den großen Vorbildern mit Elektroanschluss orientieren. Dennoch
    gilt: Mehr Watt sprechen theoretisch für mehr Power,
    allerdings hängt die Saugleistung ganz gleich von welcher Düsenbeschaffenheit und dem Zusammenspiel aller Komponenten ab.
    Diese Norm für „Staubsauger wenn man keine Ansprüche stellt –
    Teil 1: Trockensauger – Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der Gebrauchseigenschaften” zielt vorrangig darauf ab, eine konstante Leistung bei langer Lebensdauer zu garantieren. Diese Leistung drückt
    sich als Prozentsatz aus, der den Anteil von Staub in der aufgenommenen Luft
    an der Düse wiedergibt. Darum messen echte Nerds zusätzlich noch die
    Luftwattangabe und schauen, ob der Staubsauger Angaben laut DIN EN 60312-1:2017-11 aufweist.
    Gute Staubsauger erreichen fast 100 Prozent auf Hartböden, bei Teppichen sind es nur so weit wie 85 Prozent.
    Diese Werte bzw. den Unterschied kann man auch als Laie
    insbesondere bei Saugrobotern sehen.

  24. Hey There. I found your blog using msn. This is a really well written article.

    I will be sure to bookmark it and come back to read more of your useful information.
    Thanks for the post. I’ll certainly comeback.

  25. Jahre der Vorbereitung für manche Stunden der Besinnlichkeit.
    Annual brennt der Weihnachtsbaum – leider auch im wortwörtlichen Sinne.

    Wenn ihr diese Tipps beachtet, sollte nichts Besonderes
    schiefgehen. Deutlich nachhaltiger, umweltfreundlicher und irgendwie sympathischer ist die Idee,
    der Pflanze ein längeres Leben zu bescheren, ohne auf einen schön geschmückten Christbaum
    an Weihnachten zu verzichten. Statt ihn zu fällen, kann der Baum seine Wurzeln behalten und
    die Weihnachtszeit im Topf verbringen. Wer
    einen Garten besitzt, kann so einen Weihnachtsbaum
    im Topf kaufen und sich auch den Rest des Jahres um sein Wohlergehen kümmern. Danach kommt er Raus und kann fürs nächste Weihnachtsfest abermals zum Einsatz kommen. Einen Weihnachtsbaum im Topf,
    ob gemietet oder gekauft, bekommt ihr umso mehr bei Baumschulen in eurer Nähe.
    Diese Möglichkeit hat aber nicht jeder, weshalb sich in den vergangenen Jahren auch die Option des Miet-Weihnachtsbaums etabliert hat.
    Nicht bei jeder Baumschule findet ihr ein solches Angebot,
    deswegen solltet ihr vor dem Besuch anrufen und nach Weihnachtsbäumen im Topf fragen.

  26. What’s Going down i am new to this, I stumbled upon this I’ve found It positively useful and
    it has aided me out loads. I am hoping to give a contribution & help different
    customers like its helped me. Good job.

  27. You could certainly see your enthusiasm within the work you write.
    The sector hopes for even more passionate writers such as
    you who are not afraid to say how they believe.
    Always go after your heart.
