Paris in the fall is just as dreamy as everyone makes it out to be. The first thing I noticed was how insanely beautiful the bright yellow leaves looked against the pale stone-colored architecture and classic blue doors. Walking underneath rows of the majestic trees felt like something straight out of Midnight in Paris, which I made sure to watch before jetting over. Being a California girl (through and through) the other thing I loved about this time of year was the cool crisp air that required cozy layers. There’s something undeniably romantic about ducking into a French bistro for hot soup or hot coffee. These warm layers I found thanks to Massimo Dutti were just what this American girl in Paris was needing to stay warm.
