BEHOLD: THE BEANIE


A mountain town and French city share a growing trend.

As I desperately tried to narrow down my clothes to fit into one suitcase, I started eliminating accessories. A staple in Colorado, everyone owns multiple beanies to match each activity of their life. Class, the slopes, house parties, and hikes up the Flatirons: it completes every look and is practical for the colder months of the year.  I took out every part of my wardrobe that suggested "mountain woman" and filled my suitcase with impractical heels and black.  
Within the first few days adjusting to my new Parisian life, the street walkers were dressed in converse, skinny jeans, oversized T-Shirts, and to my surprise beanies. The beanie can be worn casually to run errands and go to the market, or to tone down a fancier outfit.  Parisians of every lifestyle can incorporate the beanie into their everyday look.
