Time for France

There’s a reason why France has always been synonymous to all things fashionable.

The look it is known for—chic, unabashed sophistication with a distinct touch of the coquette—has dazzled fashion insiders and style mavens alike. But since you can’t easily jaunt to the City of Lights, here’s how you can find a touch of Parisian style without leaving the metro.

Mondays in Paris

The sophisticated, feminine look of gold jewelry mirrors the leisurely elegance of the French capital, easily giving your outfit a boost. Slip into vibrantly patterned dresses and pair with simple accessories like gold studs and this eye-catching timepiece from Cherie Paris, which features gold bezels and bracelets to complement the look.

Tuesdays in Marseille

The lasting elegance of France’s center of arts and entertainment is easily replicated with gamine simplicity and effortlessness. To underscore the look, choose accent pieces that combine French glamour anchored on classic pieces such as a simple silver watch from Cherie Paris.

Wednesdays in Toulouse

Today known as the Aviation Center of France, Toulouse has long been known as the Ville Rose or the “Pink City” for its distinctive brick architecture. Inspired by the district’s architectural look, Cherie Paris’ two-tone metal timepieces add a distinctive and glossy flair that highlights a decidedly Parisian glamour.

Thursdays in Nice

As one of the major tourist centers in France, it’s easy to mirror the stylish and practical vibe of the city known for its aquatic appeal. Cherie Paris’ acrylic strap watches with translucent bracelets are stylish and functional options that mirror the easy, sassy vibe of Nice.

Fridays in Bordeaux

The French city where romance literally comes in a bottle—Bordeaux—is synonymous to rich and flavorful wines. For Cherie Paris, the flair of affection comes in the form of the Cherie Paris’ red leather straps which lend the timepieces an understated and refined aesthetic.

Saturdays in Lyon

The French Capital of gastronomy mirrors the diversity that Cherie Paris has to offer. Choose from the colorful straps to ring in the weekend and to complement your outfit of choice.

Sundays in La Rochelle

Home to the “Old Harbor” of France, the city of La Rochelle is where the nautical style comes alive. Take yourself to the Marina and cap the week with stark, white leather-strapped watches to go with a classic navy outfit and give yourself a stylish French fashion twist.
