There’s no easier way to make jeans look a little more chic than by swapping sneakers for a pair of flats. It’s a fashion combination French girls have practically perfected, pairing everyday denim with ballet flats, Mary Janes and other polished styles. The best part is that the shoes still feel just as effortless as the jeans themselves.
The 13 pairs below make recreating the look easy, with plenty of fall-ready colors and textures to choose from. There are chocolate-brown Mary Janes, caramel suede flats, sleek black pairs and even cherry red options. And with finds starting at $20, adding a little Parisian polish doesn’t have to cost a fortune.
13 Chic Flats French Girls Are Wearing With Jeans This Fall
1. Our Favorite: Mesh flats are having a major moment, and this brown Mary Jane pair nails the French girl look. The sheer mesh, glossy trim and dainty strap feel effortlessly chic, especially with straight-leg jeans.
2. Bonjour, Bows: Between the chocolate brown finish and delicate bow, these square-toe flats practically scream ‘Paris in the fall.’ I’d add a trench coat and ankle-length jeans for an easy Parisian-inspired outfit.
3. Très Sleek: These black ballet flats are for anyone who prefer their French girl style with a sharper edge. The pointed toe gives the classic flat a more sophisticated, leg-lengthening look.
4. Suede Stunners: These caramel suede flats have the kind of understated shape French girls make look incredibly cool. Better yet, the memory foam insole makes the switch from cushy sneakers feel less intimidating.
5. Pretty in Pink: These pink satin flats look like they were plucked straight from a Parisian ballet studio. The satin finish, petite bow and elastic strap make the $45 pair feel especially romantic.
6. Velvet Crush: These apricot Mary Jane flats might be the prettiest way to give denim a fall refresh. They also come in rich brown, burgundy, pink, black and more, so there’s a shade for practically every fall mood.
7. Tabi Twist: These split-toe ballet flats have that quirky-cool detail that makes a simple shoe memorable. More than 400 pairs were bought in the past month, so apparently we’re not the only ones intrigued.
8. French Classic: Every French-inspired shoe collection needs a pair of classic black ballet flats. The unfussy design is timeless enough to keep reaching for long after this season.
9. Rouge Moment: Nothing wakes up a pair of jeans quite like these red Mary Jane flats. The rich crimson shade gives the otherwise minimalist silhouette a little je ne sais quoi.
10. Woven Winner: These chocolate brown ballet flats prove even a minimalist shoe can have plenty of personality. The intricate woven texture adds interest without taking away from that understated French feel.
11. Loafer Love: Can’t decide between loafers and ballet flats? These brown loafer flats combine the best parts of both world, featuring mock-toe stitching, a square front and slim buckle strap.
12. Très Textured: A basic ballet flat could never compete with these woven buckle-strap flats. Between the basket-like weave, rounded toe and gold buckle, there’s something interesting from practically every angle.
13. Spotted in Paris: These leopard-print flats bring a little wild side to the French girl shoe trend. A sleek brown strap and gold-tone buckle balance out the statement-making mesh.
