Sarah Guirguis Anyone else borderline obsessed with Lily Collins’ character in ‘Emily in Paris’? Aside from her stunning look in the trending Netflix series, we can’t help but be on board with all the embodiments of a Parisian aesthetic. Effortless chic is definitely in this season and here is a simple guide to get the look.
Minimal Makeup
For everyday makeup, definitely pass up on the over-the-top eye and cakey foundation. A tinted BB Cream will do but even prior to that and more importantly, maybe put on a face mask for a healthy glow. Add to that fluffy brows and a bit of mascara and you’re good to go.
Signature Red Lip
A statement matte red lipstick is essential to this look. Apply two dots in the center of your lips and then dab them in with your finger for a more natural, less-defined look. If you have any product left on your fingertips, you can blend that in as blush on the high outer corner of your cheekbones.
Chic Wavy Hair
Texture is key! You also want volume and you can achieve both with a few sprays of dry shampoo. The goal is to basically have big shiny hair, so in addition to dry shampoo, a good hydrating conditioner and an argan oil serum will do the trick.
Hats & Berets
Not to be stereotypical or anything, but seriously, how could we not? Wearing colourful hats will surely make a simple outfit pop. Like Emily, you can wear a small hat to the side or even go for a red beret to match your bold lip.
Statement Coats
Whether you go for Emily’s bright colors, like pink, red and green, or black and white buffalo plaid, statement coats are a staple you don’t want to live without. Paired with the right type of shoes, they can make you look charming and sophisticated.
