Exploring Provence & Paris in Style: My Favorite Outfits and Moments

Happy Friday! If you weren’t following along on social media, I just got back from the most amazing trip to France with five of my girlfriends and I’m still daydreaming about it. After months of planning, we were so thrilled to finally turn our girls’ getaway into a reality! With everyone spread across the country, It’s not every day that all my friends are in one place, so we soaked up every second.

We started the trip in Provence, where we enjoyed incredible food, had a glass (or two!) of some of the region’s most amazing wines, and explored charming towns that looked like they were right out of a storybook. We wrapped up our trip in Paris, where we took in all of the iconic landmarks, shopped at chic boutiques, and embraced all of the city’s culture and charm.  

From the quaint towns in Provence to the bustling streets of Paris, I had so much fun planning outfits for every part of our French adventure. Here’s a peek at what made it into my suitcase for this unforgettable girls’ trip!

On our way to Provence, we all wore matching Aviator Nation sets! It’s one of my favorite brands and I thought it would be a comfy and colorful way to travel in style. The matching 5 Stripe Hoodie and  Sweatpants were perfect for the long plane ride, keeping us cozy while still wearing a fun travel outfit. 

I shared this look on Instagram, but this Amazon dress has been such a staple in my summer wardrobe! Between the quality, flattering fit, and pockets, it's the perfect dress that you can throw on and still look polished. I wore it while exploring the charming streets of Provence, and its lightweight, flowy fabric kept me cool in the French heat. Click the link below to shop this dress!

One of the highlights of our trip was going on a truffle hunting adventure in Provence! We had two amazing guides and their dogs, Caramel and Eclair, leading us through the grounds and helping us sniff out the truffles. After the hunt, we had a full meal prepared with our fresh truffles, which were absolutely delicious! In honor of our truffle hunting day, we all wore matching J. Crew Provence t-shirts. They’re unfortunately all sold out but I found a cute alternative t-shirt from J. Crew that I linked.

I wore this gray skirt set while we spent the day shopping at the famous St. Remy Market in Provence! I paired this look with comfortable sneakers for all of the walking, and there’s nothing I love more when I’m traveling than a set. This look is by Drew but is unfortunately all sold out. Here’s a similar matching linen set you can shop!

One night in Ansouis Provence, we dined at an amazing restaurant and enjoyed some of the most incredible French cuisine. This outfit was ideal for a night out - comfortable for walking around, easy to accessorize, and perfect for indulging in all of the amazing food! This jumpsuit is from a QVC brand called G.I.L.I. - they no longer have this exact jumpsuit available but I’ve linked other similar looks that you can shop!

One night in Provence, we all wore matching dresses for a fancy night out at an incredible restaurant called Domaine de Fontenille. The restaurant overlooked the French countryside and offered stunning views, so the dress couldn’t have been more perfect for the occasion. Not only is it super easy to pack for summer trips and incredibly flattering, but it comes in so many different colors to choose from! This is just one of the many pieces I’ve been loving from PrettyGarden, which you can easily order off Amazon. Click the link below to shop this dress.

What better way to celebrate our time in Paris than by creating our own Dîner en Blanc with a picnic under the Eiffel Tower! We enjoyed the perfect Parisian spread - cheese and charcuterie boards, croissants and pastries, and champagne to toast the end of our trip under such a stunning landmark. I wore this white eyelet dress from Amazon and adored the A-line fit and delicate detailing - it added the perfect elegant touch for a night out in Paris! I love this dress so much that I have it in multiple colors - this lavender version, shown below, is stunning for summer.
