Charlotte Gainsbourg capsule collection – The oversized sweaters!

I guess one of the most integral elements of “French style” is a big and cosy sweater. The recent Charlotte Gainsbourg collection, which was launched at the Parisian concept store Colette last week and is going to be available worldwide at the end of July, includes some beautiful big sweaters. Here are 3 ways to style the fabulous black and navy bicolor sweater from the recent Charlotte Gainsbourg capsule collection!

Its easy to style the Charlotte Gainsbourg capsule collection sweater with some slouchy skinnies, a pair of Birkenstocks to jump on the latest trend, a cool cross body bag and a few colorful bracelets. Its the perfect look for weekend or holidays! Depending on what you like you can either wear the sweater straight above the pant, belt it at the waist or loosely tuck it in at the front or side thus generating at least 3 different looks!

For a casual day of shopping or running errands in the city the combination with some skinnys with deconstructed hem, a biker jacket and brogues is absolutely fabulous. To make the look even better a Maison Michel Virginie fedora is a must. For the perfect material mix a chiffon scarf or a scarf made of a stiff, transparent silk, like the one above from L’Eclaireur concept store Paris is quintessential!
