1. Part of the allure in “Parisian chic” is the simple elegance evoked by the chosen pieces.

Skirts and dresses are the solution to a humid dilemma. J.Crew’s floral skirt offers versatility because if can be dressed up or down. Skirt, $98USD, J. Crew, available online at JCrew.com.
3. With blushed-out hues trending right now, try Trouvé’s silk dress. Dress, $100.09CDN, Trouvé, available on Nordstrom.com.
