7 Perfect Fall Items I'm Buying Because a French Woman Told Me Too

Sometimes, you really just need someone to tell you what to buy and why. While yes, I am a fashion editor, I too need inspiration and crave fresh conversations with other stylish women to help me navigate my next purchases. One of my most recent follows on Instagram is French fashion girl, Najma Ahmed. I admire her style for so many reasons, but one of the main reasons I look to her for sartorial inspiration is due to her ability to style more basic pieces in a way that makes them look insanely chic and exciting. 

Curious to pick the brain of the girl who has yet to create an outfit I don't immediately want to go recreate, I reached out to Najma to ask her all about the fall items I should be buying this season. Her responses were somehow spot-on with both current trends and timeless basics. Including leather blazers, everyday jewelry, and the handbag shape every fashion girl loves donning on Instagram, get ready to scroll through one of the most practical and stylish fall shopping stories I've read this season (if I do say so myself) à la Najma. Read her quotes, shop her picks, and get ready for a new French-girl-approved fall wardrobe.  

"A good blazer will make you look like the most sophisticated person in the room and it goes with everything." 

"For Parisians, jeans mean anytime and anywhere possibles. And you can’t go wrong with a straight-cut pair!"

"A trench coat really elevates any look. You can be wearing the most basic outfit and throw on a classic beige trench coat and instantly look chic!" 

"This is one of my favorite go-to bags. It sits so comfortably under your arm and holds more than you think it would which makes it’ absolutely perfect!" 

"It’s all about the classics for me so a good warm cashmere sweater for those chilly fall days is a must. It’s also very good for layering under a big coat."

"I love a good chunky boot. It doesn't matter if they are low top or high tops—these boots are both cute and comfortable."  

"I can't leave the house without my everyday jewelry so this is really is a must-have for me. Jewelry makes your outfit look 100% complete."

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
