If you’re a regular scroller of the ‘gram, then I’d hazard a guess you have an Insta-crush (or two)—a person whom you just love to “like,” perhaps for their witty humour, irresistibly beautiful pictures, or impeccable personal style.
My Insta-crush is the Parisian model Hanna Lhoumeau. I discovered her on Instagram over a year ago when working on a French-girl story and I’ve been smitten over her style (and smile!) ever since. She exudes that insouciant, effortlessly-cool French-girl style yet adheres to no rules—she dresses for herself and adds a dose of colour, fun, and cool to every ensemble. Whether she’s zooming down the streets of Paris on her motorbike in a graphic tee and Levi’s or walking by the River Seine in a puff-sleeve gingham-print dress and basket bag, her free and easy looks are always a source of inspiration.
I tapped into the stylish model to share some of her go-to picks she’s wearing on repeat this summer. From chic slip dresses to colourful yellow hues, scroll below to see the items she’s wearing and loving right now. Perhaps she’ll soon become your Insta-crush too.
“This feminine, sexy midi dress will make you look flawless. Ideal both for a walk with your gal pals or a rendezvous with your crush.”
“As you may have noticed on my Instagram, yellow and front-tie knots are my weaknesses. But when they’re coupled with a mini silhouette and puff sleeves, it’s really hard to resist! I style this dress with a basket bag and espadrilles for an easy go-to look for summer.”
“I always travel in this comfy sweat set. Once you put it on, you never want to take it off!”
“Bright yellow is the color of my summer. This vibrant skirt set always makes me want to book tickets to Sicily ASAP!”
“I am madly in love with this dress! I adore its square neckline, ruffled sleeves, and ties in the center. I’ll wear it with nude heels and a loose bun, and voilà—I’m ready to go.”
“This crop top is so dreamy. I’m a huge fan of a great bodice. I particularly love this one for its floral print and transparent sleeves. It makes the most basic jeans look amazing.”
Seamless, nude underwear is a must in every French-girl wardrobe.
Black skinny jeans work with every type of top and are easy to dress up or down.
A staw or wicker bag is the perfect finishing touch to every French-girl summer ensemble.
A white tank bodysuit is so versatile. Pair with high-waisted white jeans, tan accessories, and gold jewelry for a chic and easy summer look.
No French wardrobe is complete without a vintage-inspired puff-sleeve blouse.
The same goes for a puff-sleeve dress!
Bike shorts are having a major moment this summer. Style them with sporty crop tops and button-downs alike.
