Can girls wear shorts in Paris?


Can girls wear shorts in Paris? In Paris, I think it's considered acceptable to wear shorts in the city when the weather gets warm (from 25°C or 77°F) and especially during “la canicule” (heat wave). Being French, I feel more comfortable (and safer) wearing bermuda shorts with a tailored finish than skirts or dresses in Paris.


What to wear in Paris to not look like a tourist?

Opt for elevated basics: a white button-down shirt, straight-leg jeans or wide-leg trousers, and a neutral-toned blazer. If you are choosing to wear a T-shirt, avoid anything with a logo or abrasive design. Think comfortable business casual when packing for France.
