Like for many people, music and video clips play a huge part in my fashion sense and my sense of aesthetics in general.

I’ve been inspired by music before in my posts, for example my article on outfits inspired by Summer Walker’s First Album. Today, I wanted to mix things up a little with 3 french singer outfits inspired by cool French artists!

Although I’m originally from France, I rarely listen to French music, and mostly stick to American songs. Recently, I’ve been listening to French artists, and one thing I immediately noticed about them is their sense of style! In case you were wondering, the cliché about French people being effortlessly chic and stylish is mostly true. (I can say this as someone from France.)

Girls in France tend to not be overly trendy, and often wear simple, yet put together outfits. In other words, less is more, as you’ll see with these three French singers!

Aya Nakamura – Djadja (Clip officiel)

Products: Khaki Jacket – Forever 21, White T-Shirt – Forever 21, Jeans – Missguided, Black Ankle Boots – Missguided, Necklace – Nordstrom

Aya Nakamura‘s first single, Djadja, became a summer hit in France and a year later, she’s now one of France’s most well-known artists!

This song is about a Djadja, which in slang is a liar. The djadja has been jilted, and he spreads lies about Aya as a result. Throughout the song, Aya explains that she is better off without him.

I loved the different outfits Aya wore in the video, but my favorite was the one with the green jacket, jeans and white t-shirt, because it’s really simple, but still chic and elegant.

To recreate this French singer outfit, I chose a khaki jacket, ripped skinny jeans, a gold necklace similar to the one in the video, and ankle boots. Ankle boots are such a big staple in any French girl’s wardrobe. They are the shoes you’ll see the most in the street if you ever visit France.
