Simplicity and Naturalness
An important feature that distinguishes French women is the ability to add sexuality to the simplest, everyday look: Parisian women don't want to look trendy, they want to look seductive and natural. True elegance lies in simplicity: a minimum of texture and details and a maximum of natural beauty. Flared jeans, a crop top, a loose classic coat, a shoulder bag and heels are the perfect casual look from Jeanne Damas.

Flowered Dress
The main it-girl of France believes that in order to look feminine and charming, you just need to wear a dress with a floral print: and immediately the casual look becomes romantic old-fashioned. This year, such brands as Oscar de la Renta, Alexander McQueen, offer a new perspective on this popular spring-summer print. Large floral patterns and a riot of colors are the trend of this season, but Jeanne remains true to her style, and prefers delicate flowered dress.

Knitted cardigans
In spring, you just can't do without a knitted cardigan – this garment helps not to get cold on fresh, cool evenings. Jeanne Damas believes that a warm cardigan is a great alternative to lightweight jackets, classic trench coats and other outerwear. Therefore, in her wardrobe, there are always a few "Granny’s" cardigans of nude colors (and, it seems, they are even more cozy than velour pajamas).
