👗 Style Tips for Provence

Provence style is rustic elegance at its best—think linen, woven accessories, and soft, earthy tones.

• Flowy dresses and midi skirts
• Neutral-toned tops and light cardigans
• A woven sunhat and oversized sunglasses
• Simple gold or pearl jewellery

Pro Tip: You’ll thank yourself for packing clothes that are camera-friendly and breathable—it’s hard not to take a thousand photos in front of a lavender field.
