[@karmagrace2877]

Thank you so much for making this video. It was much more comprehensive than most of the videos I’ve run across. Would love to see the men’s version if you can talk Juju into it.

[@adrielfelise]

You’re welcome. And I will definitely do my best. He claims he never wants to be on camera … and yet he loves the camera.

Thank you! The perfect video for the overthinker who needs accurate information. You save me! 😍

[@adrielfelise]

Glad I could help!

[@kevinmcauliffe5465]

This is most helpful- lots of practical info with packing tips that recommend how to shop in your closet and still have style. Thank you Adriel!

[@keeptheshoes6198]

This was SO helpful Adriel, much more comprehensive than any other video I have seen. I can’t wait for the men’s video! I am hoping to join my husband on a business trip next month

[@jewelturner8650]

Thanks, Adriel. I worked as a model in Paris for Dior in the early 90's. I have since returned to France twice since the pandemic and will visit old friends in Normandy and the Riviera this Spring. Thanks again and take care!

[@adrielfelise]

Oh my gosh! That’s so cool! Have fun in Normandy & Riviera.

[@opaljohnson4762]

Great tips, thanks for sharing. Love your clothes selection.

Thank you for this information, I will apply it for my trip in April.🇨🇦

You’re welcome. Have a great trip.

[@tracyhale-rg8qx]

Well done, Adriel! I was in Paris last year the first week in April. We experienced snow at the Rodan museum and the next afternoon I got a touch of sunburn at Luxembourg Gardens. Your advice it right on point!

[@adrielfelise]

Oh my gosh, that is so Paris. One moment all is perfect the next chaos. Haha.

[@licakoroi3010]

Found you as I was preparing for my Paris trip this time last year, I was happy I packed my husband's trench coat from 30 yrs ago, that I've claimed for myself 😊

Super Adriel, thanks for this input. Can’t wait to see your next video. Merci………🤗🇨🇦

I lived in Paris for 8 years and no one, absolutely no one French, wears a beret. It's beyond ringard. Glad that you said it.

[@adrielfelise]

Right?! I keep trying to tell people but no one will listen. Haha. I literally follow an account on TT though that's devoted to old French ppl in berets and it's hilarious. They look like they stepped out of a time machine.

[@marymorgan4028]

This has been so helpful. I will be in Paris for the first time next week for Easter and I have been obsessing over what to wear. Now I know I only have to throw some tights into the mix, a couple t shirts and a few more scarves and I should be grand. Thank you very much.

[@adrielfelise]

You're very welcome. It's definitely quite chilly right now; yesterday I had on my heavy winter coat and the day before it started to sleet so layers (with a coat) will be your friend.

[@J_LOVES_ME]

Your videos are great! Very valuable info, honest and practical! I'll be visiting Mar 29-Apr 6th and the coat especially was great advice!

[@adrielfelise]

Oh, I'm so glad you like it. Feel free to let me know if you need anything. It seems by the 29th it will be back to lows of 45 and highs of 58/60 so you will definitely still want a coat.

[@yingzhang6619]

Over all those fashion icons video, I found this one really helpful and also speak the truth.❤

I wish I had you last year when I visited. I was cold!!! I didn’t expect it bc it would say 65/60, but it hit different. 😂

[@adrielfelise]

Gosh doesn’t a Paris 65/50 hit sooo different?! I don’t even know why. It makes no sense!!

Thanks so much Adriel. I am returning to Paris this Spring and looking forward to it.

[@cindyb2525]

I love your outfit you have on Adriel, brown is very popular this season. I understand the look is so different in Milan, what do you know about the style there?

[@adrielfelise]

Thank you! The women in Milan are dressed to the 9s!! Think stilettos on cobblestone and a FULL face of makeup in scorching August heat. It’s insane. Have you ever seen the opening sequence of The Devil Wears Prada? That’s Milan. However, the Italian cobblestone is worse than the French so I just had to have comfortable shoes. But did I feel underdressed? Yes!

[@ewillett6]

My most uncomfortable foot experience traveling: Clark knee high boots (that I didn’t fully break in) in Paris. I literally hobbled the last .5 mile back to the hotel. 😅 wore comfy worn-in ankle boots every day after.

[@adrielfelise]

Oh gosh. I’m so sorry. There is nothing like a bad shoe travel experience, right? I had a pair of Ugg ankle boot wedges that I hadn’t broken in that I wore on my first trip to London. On day 3 I had to buy epsom salt to try to reduce the swelling of my feet. I gave those shoes to someone when I got back to the U.S. and never regretted it.

[@ratulamorie5255]

This is an awesome video! Very informative. A couple things I am curious to know: 1) What kind of jewelry do locals wear on a day to day basis? I wear a combination of plain gold chains and gold necklaces with a pendant (not real gold, btw). is this okay, or would this be considered too flashy? 2) You mentioned that berets are more of a winter hat. What kind of hats do women wear in the spring, around mid-April?

[@adrielfelise]

With respect to jewelry, most keep it super low key. Pickpockets can take your necklace off your neck without you even noticing. Things are kept quite understated on a day-to-day basis especially if you take the metro. I don’t see a lot of people wearing hats on a day to day basis. When they do wear hats, it’s often a NY Yankees cap or a Boston Red Sox cap. Now, does a single French person know either of these baseball teams? No. But for some reason, they love to rock them and it cracks me up. So if you have a Yankees or Red Sox baseball cap, you will fit right in.

[@ratulamorie5255]

@ thank you so much! Bonne année à toi!

[@yolondafowler3273]

Hi Adriel, lovely outfits. I am considering packing dresses only for our summer trip to Paris. Do you recommend long or short slips and which fabrics work best? Thank you!

[@adrielfelise]

Both long and short dresses will work for a Paris trip. I tend to wear cotton as I think it's the most comfortable when wandering about the streets. I would say just to avoid white white dresses as everything here is dirty. haha

Hi Adriel and thank you for the detailed video! Is it ok to wear wide leg gray sweatpants with some oversized shirt jacket?

[@adrielfelise]

Hello. If the sweatpants don't really look like typical gym sweatpants then, yes, I think that would be fine. I'm assuming you're speaking of something a little chic - like you might find at Uniqlo.

[@miracleoftheyear9527]

Very helpful and you’re beautiful hope I can see you next month there 😘🧡

[@Ingrid0410]

Great!! Je adore Paris!!! Can u link your dark wash Levis with the cuff? Looking forward to more Paris videos!!!Parisian style v America, your impressions etc! Do u work there? Its funny you say no athleisure wear in Paris! What wd happen if you wore them? Lol wd u be arrested? Funny you discuss that. Ive been going to Paris for 50 yrs , always worn what I like never had a problem. Maybe because my American style is very French or European anyway. Love all your clothes👍 thx for breaking the stereotypical view of always neutrals, everywhere on YT, although in my 60s now I do prefer them. I use my Chanel and Dior bags in Paris still. Why not? I also carry mace 😂 ps you look great in color! That lavender jacket💜👍

[@adrielfelise]

My levi's jeans are linked here: shopstyle.it/l/b9yRH The only thing that would happen if you wore athleisure in Paris is that you would stand out as a tourist, which means you can expect the pickpockets to swarm you. It's no longer safe to wear your Paris or Dior etc on the metro in Paris. People will follow you. It's also not the best, if you are a tourist, to carry your nice bags with you. Again, you will be swarmed by pickpockets in most tourist areas. There are only certain neighborhoods where you will see lots of women carrying Chanel's, LVs etc.; for the most part, you really don't see it that much anymore due to the issues with pickpockets. And, with respect to the mace and pepper spray, be careful - they're illegal in France so if you used it for any situation other than true and complete self defense, you would get in trouble. It's also illegal to even bring it into France. If a group of young girls swarms you to take your money and bag (for example) it is unlikely that would be a legitimate reason to use it because they're just taking your things and don't plan to actually harm you.

[@paulacahill]

Are lug sole loafers good for May?

[@adrielfelise]

Yes but it might be hot. There are (finally) hours in the day when it’s really warm so your little feet might bake during those.

[@sesilginting2737]

I will go on 23rd of May - 2nd June. Any advice ?

[@adrielfelise]

Yes ma'am. I'll have a video up on that next week, I promise. You will get the best weather - it should be warm all day, every day!!

[@hdjsjjfk]

hi! i’m from a hot southeast asian country and im visiting from start-mid june. what are temperatures like then? being used to tropical temperatures, do you think i could still wear tank tops etc?

[@adrielfelise]

You can but I would still bring at least one pair of denim and a long sleeve shirt. The weather in Paris can change so fast.

[@yingzhang6619]

hi Adriel, I am going from 29th Mar till April 6th. I was wondering if skinny jeans and over the knee boots is going to screaming tourists ? I thought over the knee boots really warm. Also shall I bring a merino coat or a trench coat?

[@adrielfelise]

Skinny jeans are definitely fine. If you want to blend in a bit more, I would say to go with skinny jeans & ankle boots or sneakers. Skinny jeans & over the knee won’t scream tourist (that’s definitely a look you see here) but it’s actually looking like it might be a warm spring so it’s possible it will be too warm for the over the knee boots. With respect to the coat, I think it just depends on what is warmer & if you’re often cold. I tend to feel cold often but today my lightweight wool coat was just too warm for me because I had on a coat + sweater + baselayer. Eventually I took off my coat and carried it. If you tend to feel cold more often, I would say to bring the Merino & just layer in a way that you can easily take the coat off during the warmer parts of the day if needed.
