I’m dreaming of Paris right now and its gorgeous apartments. Having visited the City of Lights in every season, I actually think fall is the best time to travel there. Light jacket weather but the gray, rainy days haven’t quite set in, fewer tourists to bump elbows with at museums — you get a little bit more for your time and money in late September and October in my opinion.

A trip isn’t on my agenda this fall, though, so I’m looking for little ways to bring Parisian style into my space. Flea markets and secondhand shops should be your first stop, and, of course, lots of stores carry Parisian-inspired items for those on a budget. But don’t discount T.J. Maxx and Marshalls. These brands’ buyers know that French-inspired decor and accessories are trending all over social media and in interior designer projects. So they’ve done their best to bring shoppers Parisian-look home goods — and designer finds straight from France in some cases.

You don’t need a passport to cash on these Paris-inspired pieces. I’m sharing a few of my favorites here, including a travel guide I just ordered for my next trip. It sold out once, so I’m glad to get it this restock. Shop sooner than later because these are going to go fast, if that travel guide is any indicator. 

The 10 Best Parisian-Inspired Finds from T. J. Maxx and Marshalls Right Now

Cereal City Guide Paris Book
$17

Like I said, Cereal magazine’s Paris Guide sold out once already, so I didn’t waste any time ordering it this time around. You’ll find me studying this over the next few months for my upcoming trip to Paris in January. The hardcover format means it's nice enough to leave out as coffee-table decor.

Global Views Beveled Oval Mirror
$100

This beveled mirror looks like the type of thing you’d find over a pedestal sink in a Paris pied-à-terre. Bring a little bit of that French flair into your own powder room or entry.

$100 at Marshalls
Le Creuset 2.75-Quart Cast-Iron Shallow Dutch Oven
$200

Just leaving this Dutch oven here for you to feast your eyes on. It’s made in France, and yes, it’s from that company that’s known for their epic performance and fun collaborations.

$200 at TJ Maxx
Reed and Barton Weston Crystal Candlestick Holders, Set of 2
$70

Crystal lamps and decorative accessories are all over the place in Paris. Go with a more minimal, pared-back version of the antiques you’ll find there with this chic candlestick set.

$70 at Marshalls
Tamara Day Amabel Marble Accent Lamp
$120

Marble is another thing you’ll find en masse in Paris, particularly when it comes to fireplaces. T.J. Maxx and Marshalls don’t carry those (yet), but you can find marble tables and lighting. I love this accent lamp, which features the sweetest pink marble base.

$120 at TJ Maxx
Enchante Oval Bow Tabletop Picture Frame
$13

I found a frame just like this one at a Parisian flea market earlier this year. Mine does have a nicer patina, but this style is just as cute. And it’s a lot cheaper!

$13 at Marshalls
Oliver Eiffel Tower Wall Art
$15

I don’t always love a mass-produced print, but I actually think this Eiffel Tower wall art would look great in a gallery wall. Just try to include a few original pieces to balance it out, even if they’re just easy abstracts you paint yourself in an afternoon!

$15 at TJ Maxx
Marble Top Hammered Iron Legs Side Table
$80

Speaking of marble, this side table would be such a great nightstand alternative if you’re looking for a Parisian-inspired sleep space. The only issue is that it has no storage. For that reason, you might be more inclined to use it beside your sofa in a living room instead.

$80 at Marshalls
Sagebrook Home Metal Croissant Decor
$13

How fun would this gilded croissant object look on top of a stack of books? It’s exactly the type of thing that you don’t need but totally want for some reason.

$13 at TJ Maxx
Safavieh Vintage Floral Runner
$50

I saw a floral rug similar to this runner at the legendary Saint Ouen flea market a few trips ago, and it’s been living in my head rent free since then. Grab it before I do! It also comes in larger sizes and in an oatmeal color way.

$50 at Marshalls
