On Wednesday, I introduced Wallis Evera (see Wednesday's post here), an eco-friendly fashion label based out of Vancouver, Canada. Today, I'm sharing a second look with Wallis Evera from my trip to the Palace of Versailles, along with a few tips on how to inject some Parisian class into your outfits.

The Palace of Versailles was one of my favourite things the hubby and I did when visiting Paris. We originally planned to only go for 4 hours but ended up staying there the whole day! Surprisingly, it only took us 35 minutes to get there from Paris with our Uber driver. 

There is so much to see and do at the Palace of Versailles including touring the palace, visiting the many groves and gardens, observing the water show and visiting other residences on the grounds -including Marie Antoinette's home. 

The gardens and groves were my favourite from our entire day spent there. Next time, I'd pack a picnic lunch to bring with me and sit on the lawn watching the fountains play orchestrated music. 

I wanted my outfit for my trip to Versailles to feel and look classy and put together, while still being functional. I'll admit that I did switch my mules to sneakers for a good portion of the day to maintain comfort and avoid blisters. Today I'll be sharing a few tips on how to add a Parisian flare to any ensemble. 

1. Wear a a dress, skirt or pants with a modest length. French women are classy women and nothing says classy more than a midi length dress, skirt or in my case culottes. I absolutely loved these culottes I styled from Wallis Evera because they had the look of the midi skirt with the ease and comfort of trousers. 

2. Sport a polished hairstyle. A sleek ponytail is always a go in my books because it's easy to style and extremely comfortable especially on hot summer days. A high bun or braided hair style are always good alternatives. 

3. Keep it neutral. Go for neutral colours like navy blues, whites, blush tones or blacks. Don't be afraid to choose one coloured piece to add some life to your look like the bright pink bag I added to my ensemble. 

4. Choose the right heel. A pump or mule is always a classic and safe choice. Just because they're classic, doesn't mean they have to be boring. Try a heel with a red soul, like a Louboutin or color-blocked mules like I wore above. 

5. Tie a little bow on it. To complete the look, try adding a neck scarf to your ensemble. I love styling off-shoulder tops with neck scarf because it keeps the look more modern and current. 

I definitely hope to return to the Palace of Versailles in the near future. If you're booking an upcoming trip to Paris, I definitely encourage you to make the trip up there - you won't be disappointed!
