Instead, they have a large wardrobe full of neutral colors \u2013 black, white, beige, and white \u2013 with a few pops of navy blue and red mixed in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"choose-breathable-fabrics\">Choose Breathable Fabrics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cotton and linen are the fabrics of choice for Parisians when summer rolls around. These are the most breathable fabrics you can choose for your clothing to keep you cool <em>and<\/em> looking chic!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"stock-up-on-basics\">Stock Up On Basics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Parisians always make sure to have a well-stocked closet full of <a href=\"https:\/\/thefrench.com\/wardrobe-basics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">basics<\/a> including lots of plain white t-shirts which can be paired with jeans, blazers, skirts, and a wide variety of summer outfits.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"have-a-few-cocktail-dresses-ready\">Have a Few Cocktail Dresses Ready<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You never know when you might get texted about an evening <em>soir\u00e9e<\/em> or receive an invitation to a summer wedding. Having a few <a href=\"https:\/\/thefrench.com\/cocktail-dresses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fancy dresses<\/a> on hand will save you when those last-minute plans come rolling in as they often do in summer!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"don-t-bring-a-jacket\"><span id=\"dont-bring-a-jacket\">Don\u2019t Bring a Jacket<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Air conditioning is a rarity here in Paris \u2013 and most Parisians are utterly convinced it makes them sick \u2013 so you don\u2019t need to bring a <a href=\"https:\/\/thefrench.com\/sweaters\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sweater<\/a> or jacket with you on super hot days in Paris. The chances are you\u2019ll be just fine in your t-shirt since there are not many climate-controlled interiors in Paris!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"always-wear-sunglasses\">Always Wear Sunglasses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, Parisians never leave their apartments without their favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/thefrench.com\/sunglasses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">French sunglasses<\/a>!
