I'm raised in France and Sweden. And the biggest differences in style are the following: *French = Chic and timeless* *Swedish = trendy, accessible and avant-garde*
I’m Norwegian and I would say a well-fitting pair of blue jeans, plus a classic wool winter coat and well-made quality everyday boots would be the must- haves in here Oslo. I think the Scandinavian must-haves in this video are more relevant for teenagers and people in their early twenties. When you pass 25 your priorities change.
Yes, in trondheim it is kinda the same. My go-to's in summer are a nice pair of shorts, flowy wideleg trousers, a denim skirt, and matched with a nice singlet, a flowy cropped shirt, and a t-shirt. In fall/winter I love to wear high waisted jeans with sweaters of every colour
I'm from Finland and to me her tips also seem like a trendy twenty something tips, than something.... eh, stylish? Of course, people in Stockholm have different style taste as me. I'd never ever put on those things! What she's telling about French style makes sense to me though.
Lucky to have lived in both countries...I think one factor makes Scandinavian style unique is that they’re TALL!!! So they can pull off the Acne Studio kinda look really well, which can look really frumpy if you don’t have the height and bone structure.
I'm Swedish and I live in Stockholm, and I've always felt weird about the compulsion to change style every single year. It's like people don't have any actual personal opinions, they just follow whatever is on fashion at that point. I guess I'm more French in that sense, I really like the thought of finding what fits me, and go for that. I feel a lot freer in that, I don't have to get something new just because a magazine told me my best trousers are no longer "in". Besides, if you want to try to get away from fast fashion, it's kind of impossible to change your style several times a year. And another thing: Justine, where is your petrol blue coat from? It is fantastic! I've been looking for one like that for ages. :)
America is the like that too. I like timeless pieces, but I also really like black, silver, and pastels lol. I don't care if something is on trend or not, but once in a while I'll follow a trend that I really do like the aesthetic of.
*The more secure people are the more they dress for themselves and not to fit into a group.* You see one item on a few people and the following two weeks every other female is wearing the exact same item. It’s almost as if they worry they will be pushed out of their social circle if they don’t obey the current fashion trend. I find this extra interesting when discussing fashion and so many express they dress in clothes they don’t like because it’s what you are ”suppose” to wear, and not what they genuinly feel like wearing. Why live for strangers when it’s your money you spend and the items go on your own body?! Work on meeting those who are insecure and take the right to critique your fashion decisions. And I know so much what you speak of since I grew up in central Stockholm.
I'm Swedish but I like the french style more, and how they think. I don't follow trends, I just try to find pieces that look good on me and that I can wear for a long time.
Great video! As a Scandi myself I think in general people dress very practical here. We need shoes that don't get ruined in a puddle and a coat that can protect us from the rain.
Liked the the use of side-by-side footage to demonstrate the points each of you made; really emphasized the differences/similarities clearly! Enjoyed this very much; TFP : )
I'm from Finland and I agree with all the Scandinavian "facts" beside the trench. If I'd have to name a third wardrobe essential, it would maybe be a leather jacket or a padded coat.
Yeah I'm Finnish too and I can't really think of a season when we could wear a trench coat! It's always either too cold or too hot. I now live in the UK and I've just started wearing my thin coat (not a trench coat but similar fabric), and I will get a couple of month's wear out of it this season
As a Norwegian I have to agree, from spring until late summer/early fall, it's usually a leather jacket or at least cropped jackets, and for the winter it's usually a padded coat. I also disagree about the jewelry, I rarely see Norwegian women with lots of it..
I'm Finnish, and when Justine asked about the hairstyle my mind instantly screamed "messy bun" haha. It's everywhere! Combine that with a sweater, leggings and trainers and you've got a 15 year old Scandi girl
Hi everyone! Happy Sunday! Were these answers what you expected?? 😁 How do you see the style of Scandinavian women? Don't forget to check out Jenny's video, to know what a Scandinavian girl and a French girl wouldn't be caught dead in: ua-cam.com/video/duQqBBsBbno/v-deo.html
I loved this video - such a fab idea and super interesting. I’d love to do a similar video with you comparing French versus New Zealand fashion. May be tricky given we live a gazillion miles away tho 🙊😂
I'm danish and in the winter we have to dress for the cold, which means spending a lot of money on a big coat and some boots to go with. Even though the clothes have to be warm we still try to be as fashionable as possible :)
I live in Norway and I don't see people trying to follow trends at all cost, or overload on jewelry. And I'd pick a leather jacket or a wooly/warm coat as a staple, rather than a trench coat any day. Fun video though! It's never going to be easy, or possible really, to sum up an entire nation's "style", and Jenny is trying to do 3-in-1 😂
Love this collaboration! My two favourite youtubers together! I lived in London and Paris and I'm happy I have sensed the French style correctly when I lived there. My wardrobe went through a big change when I moved from London to Paris, and again when I moved to Amsterdam!
I absolutely loved this conversation! More of them please whenever possible. While watching this I was bemused; my sister and I and 2.5 yrs apart; I fall down firmly on the French side, except for heels because of back problems, while my sis would easily fit into Scandinavian style. In fact I, who am not always aware of fashion trends, can guess what they are just by looking at how my sis is dressing or wearing her hair. Fascinating!!!!
We are also sentimental in America about jewelry - my favorite pieces are from family, my husband, friends. Wedding jewelry is a big one, passed down through generations.
I'm Flemish, Belgian. I would consider my style more French. I also find it funny that of all people Scandinavian people, known for their environmentally progressive ideas, could hold such a consumeristic view on fashion in going for trendy. Guess nobody's perfect! Interesting video.
Me, too! :) Especially about the jewelry, I hardly ever buy myself any, but instead get them as gifts or buy them on "special occasions" like on vacation, so everything has sentimental value. The only scandinavian youtuber I follow is Signe from Use Less, she's Danish and all about capsule wardrobes, sustainability while still staying chique. She mixes french and scandinavian style pretty well I think :)
Oh, it wasn't meant as judgment, a girl loves what a girl loves. It was just very unexpected. Most Scandinavians I know (mostly Finnish I'll admit) seem so functional and down to earth that I just can't seem to picture them as trying to follow trends.
a finn popping in here. i barely own any trendy pieces, or if i do, ive liked them so much that ive worn them a few seasons. and i also skip many trends. im finding myself going towards the more classic and simple pieces. went to stockholm a few weeks ago and a lot of the people seemed to be very on trend. a lot more than in finland imo. maybe we arent as trendy as people in sweden :-) then again everyones different, im sure we can find both types in both countries.
It's the contrasts and similarities between different cultures that are so fun and interesting. Also I would like to see a clip that discusses other cultures influence on your own! For instance the oriental influence in fashion in Europe. :)
Light beige trench coat brings up memories from my childhood in Finland, when during 1st of May celebrations everyone was wearing it, with our student hat, serpentine around the neck and bottle of sparkling in one hand and balloon in the other. It was like a style nightmare to me!
A dream came true by having these two wonderful youtubers in a collab! I haven't realized until now that both of you live in Berlin ♥ I love you girls! Your devoted Slovak fan :)
This was awesome!! Do more videos like this, please!:) It's really nice to see style differences between cultures. Thank you for the video, I really enjoyed it.
This was cute! The visual comparisons made side by side really help to emphasize the differences. I love that you have been able to collaborate with other UA-camrs lately.
I'm swedish and I've never been comfortable changing my style with the trends. I've kind of always had "my own style", which is more steered towards timeless pieces. Love having my hair in a bun though! I usually get compliments for being stylish and having my own style even though it's just simple, well fitting clothes of good quality.
@@MathildaFlow Sounds like you have a great sense of style, love that you wear some inherited pieces of jewelry!! You can't go wrong with classic, but individual style!!
both of them are articulate and nice spoken persons, they don't talk nonsense like others........I don't have nerves to listen 98% of you tubers, but this two are great and full of useful information .............thank you girls and keep doing what you do
I loved watching the style comparisons with you two, and my husband enjoyed watching it with me. He asks if you have done other videos comparing styles like this in other countries? I'd love to see more like this, it was great watching it!
I've been waiting for you two to collaborate for so long! Your channels are among the very few from which I never miss a video, and I love hearing your perspectives on regional style. Thanks so much for the fantastic, thoughtful content!
I was hoping to see you together for a very long time!! I am so happy ❤ I actually discovered Jenny's channel after watching your videos on capsule wardrobe and minimalism. And you are two of my favorite youtubes! Greetings to you both! 😊
I really love both these styles. I probably identify more with french style in terms of basics/minimalism but I love the comfort and casualness of Scandi style

I found this so fun! I am Swedish but live in the United States. I loved hearing the differences and similarities between French and Swedish styles. I always look forward to Sunday’s. (:
Hey, I know I am late, but I keep coming back to this. I learned so much from you and Jenny! About diet, clothing and lifestyle. You really changed my approach to fashion. I dare to wear what I think is stylish rather than just playing it safe and going for my oversized hoodie and sweatpants to cover up my body. I am more mindful when purchasing clothes. I dare to style myself differently, even though that sometimes means weird looks. Most of the time that's positive. I seem more approachable. I get asked for my opinion by strangers when clothes and shoe shopping. It's amazing. thank you so much. This collab was amazing! Also I am currently spending a semester abroad an I love the style influences I get from all the internationals. I am so inspired. I probably would have missed on that if I wouldn't care about fashion.
I loved this! And, just as note, I identified more closely with French on everything except the hair - I can’t do bangs & I can appreciate a good messy bun!!!
I love that you two make that video together, I haven't watch Jenny for a while and I'm shocked, Jenny darlin you have eyebrows again, love both your esthetics. Great job !
Loved this collab! I agree with Justine about the jewelry (sentimental pieces being my favorites) but with Jenny on the shoes. Now on to the next one on Jenny's channel.
Aaaaw I found this only now! Both of you are my inspiration, I've been watching you ladies for quite some time now, so it's great to actually see you together :)
I mostly agree with Jenny on scandinavian fashion. But i think we "aspire" french fashion were it is practical (and affordable) clothes: One essential piece .. woolen sweater! (well, also a really warm coat) makeup: I am with Justine here, i think most women try to look natural here accessories: Yes, dont mix silver and gold. Actually, i know very few that do wear gold at all. Mostly silver or steel. shoes: Must be practical and warm! Well, you can wear heels in Reykjavik for going out .. but not where i grew up in Vik, cause .. there is nothing to go out anyway and you will just make a clown out of yourself walking around in such shoes. hair: natural long, rugged, i rarely see bangs Then again, i just googled and had to realize that we are not actually considered part of scandinavia lol. I always though we were.
simply_A many still count finland as part of scandinavia when talking about this sort of stuff bc we are pretty similar in many ways, even tho geographically were not part of scandinavia, but fennoscandia
also a thing ive noticed with the jewelry, people with warmer/darker skin color usually suit gold better. at least me being very white and cold undertoned suit silver a lot better. definitely goes with preferance but i think that can also have something to do with it lol
ann oh definitely! My sis' skin color is tan and she can work with gold or silver. Although she prefers gold more! For me, I prefer gold too although my skin color isn't as dark. I think the clothes are also an influence with what matches with what.
I'd say both styles have in common the color mixing, as they tend to the monochrome. Here in Latin America we definetely dress more colorful and love the color contrast, even if it's only a black and white look. Great video!
Hi I’m from Sri Lanka. I don’t know if you have ever heard my country but I really enjoy your style tips. They are very professional and applicable universally.
Another difference, that you did touch upon a bit but not fully, is that Swedish people that has a less trend driven style generally like to dress in classic clothes that they like a more preppy & sporty look which I rarely seen in France.
It's so amazing that you two collaborated! I have always found myself loving both french and scandinavian style. I hope to see more collabs with Jenny! How about a style-swap for a day? :D
The Scandinavian style feels really fresh and trendy but I ABSOLUTELY ADORE French style, it's so timeless and classy and make so much sense to me. Awesome video Justine, as always
I must be French and didn't know it? I never go along with trends and have the same exact style that Justine described . Now it's time to watch the other link! 👍❤
I really enjoyed this video. I am a combination French, Irish, Scottish and totally follow the French style. It makes sense to remain classic as opposed to trendy, however, I think trendy is fine if you can afford to change your wardrobe every year. For me it is better to be classic with quality pieces that stay in style.
Love this and so on point on the Scandinavian style. Just one comment, Finnish women(many) do have a love for strong colours, that difference them from the rest of the Scandinavian women. You can see this especially on big occasion, like weddings, Christmas celebration and so on.. Now I'm of to part 2.. Hugs & sunshine 🌞 N Ps.Hope you had a beautiful Easter J! 🐣 "Glad Påsk!" 🐤 "Hyvää Pääsiäistä!" 🐥
Well, that's probably because Finland isn't a part of Scandinavia, so Finnish women are not "scandinavian". ;) (Nordic, but not Scandinavian.) But yeah, we do seem to love colour a bit more - colour and prints.
Orange Tee True, but the north west part of Finland is a part of the Scandinavian peninsula, but yes you are right! (Nordic and Scandinavian, two separate things..😊) I love the fact that the finnish women are so brave with there choice of colour and prints, tells a lot about the woman.. strong and unique 😘 Halaus ja auringonpaittetta🌞N
Julia Wincent Totally different to what East Europeans tend to wear these days though. Most Finnish women don't like things overly feminine or sexy, we tend to go for the odd trends more than I've seen elsewhere in Europe. For the most part East Europeans are very feminine, romantic dressers.
I don't often see comparisons between french and scandi styles so it's interesting to learn about them. So cool that you are both based in Berlin. Looking forward to more collabs!
This was great!!! Plz do more of these, I tend to favor the French style, always have, but the Scandinavian for casual due to weather. And Justine, your hair is so so beautiful, don't even cut it shorter
As I was doing a bit of spring cleaning through my closet I realised a lot my clothes are from Scandi brands (Swedish or Danish). I find their oversized stuff very comfy and effortless (but still paired up with super skinny Nudies :). But I tend to style those pieces the French way, because I absolutely hate bringing too much attention to myself haha...
Filippa K and Acne gets mentioned here (UK) a lot. I have some modal & cotton basics from Samsoe & Samsoe, dresses from Monki and denim items from Cheap Monday. All my clothes are affordable (for a student's budget), but they last if you wash them properly. Nudie jeans are very high quality, but they don't really suit my tiny Asian frame. I bought one, which I had to alter, years ago and they've aged better than any jeans I ever owned. I bought a few chunky wool jumpers in Stockholm years ago. They have that traditional Swedish/Scandi pattern (looks like a Christmas jumper). They've became my fav jumpers. Unfortunately I cut off the tags, but it was just a local store so it might have been an unknown brand anyway. Scotland makes similar items and they're relatively cheaper, but still of good quality.
Great video with 2 adorable ladies ❤️Years ago when I was an architecture student living in the hipster side of the city , I tried quite hard to create a Scandinavian look, a cool look. As time went by I became more and more fascinated by the French style , something more timeless,feminine, subtle and elegant. This shift in style has in many ways changed the way I feel about myself .
As a Swede, I can say I didn't agree with even half of what Jenny said - my style is more classic - so it depends a lot upon taste, as well as what company you keep or how and where you grew up. For instance, sneakers and ballerinas are the BANE of my existence for their soles are too thin. Jogging shoes if I must - or sturdy winter boots at the correct time of year - or heels of a 2cm or 1in.
Jenny, i would like to see one or more videos showing "the beige trench coat" over the years. I was fascinated with your subtle taste. I am an American. When young, a while ago, it seems that -unknowingly - I followed a lot of the Frech style.
Enjoyed this video! Validating our differences is great! Regarding new videos, I wonder if we can also see a video about handbags to wear according to height and body type! I'd love to be enlightened in this area. We can all have a moderate idea but that doesn't beat the advice of an expert. I recently moved to NY and realized that....my style needs an urgent brush up! Keep up with the good job J, I enjoy your light and powerful videos!
What are french women dressing for at night??? Also used to follow Jenny Mustard a lot! I didn't recognize her really at first! It's so cool to see you two interact :)
I'm raised in France and Sweden. And the biggest differences in style are the following:
*French = Chic and timeless*
*Swedish = trendy, accessible and avant-garde*
I’m Norwegian and I would say a well-fitting pair of blue jeans, plus a classic wool winter coat and well-made quality everyday boots would be the must- haves in here Oslo. I think the Scandinavian must-haves in this video are more relevant for teenagers and people in their early twenties. When you pass 25 your priorities change.
@Thornback Same in Northern Sweden. Stocholmers really have a thing of their own.
Yes, in trondheim it is kinda the same. My go-to's in summer are a nice pair of shorts, flowy wideleg trousers, a denim skirt, and matched with a nice singlet, a flowy cropped shirt, and a t-shirt. In fall/winter I love to wear high waisted jeans with sweaters of every colour
I agree. I'm Norwegian too.
I'm from Finland and to me her tips also seem like a trendy twenty something tips, than something.... eh, stylish? Of course, people in Stockholm have different style taste as me. I'd never ever put on those things! What she's telling about French style makes sense to me though.
Lucky to have lived in both countries...I think one factor makes Scandinavian style unique is that they’re TALL!!! So they can pull off the Acne Studio kinda look really well, which can look really frumpy if you don’t have the height and bone structure.
You can tell how proud Justine is of French style! Love the slightly mischievous smile and sparkle in the eyes ;)
One thing both of you are is efficient! I love a video that gets straight to the topic, no long intros carrying on and on about absolutely nothing.
I'm Swedish and I live in Stockholm, and I've always felt weird about the compulsion to change style every single year. It's like people don't have any actual personal opinions, they just follow whatever is on fashion at that point. I guess I'm more French in that sense, I really like the thought of finding what fits me, and go for that. I feel a lot freer in that, I don't have to get something new just because a magazine told me my best trousers are no longer "in". Besides, if you want to try to get away from fast fashion, it's kind of impossible to change your style several times a year.
And another thing: Justine, where is your petrol blue coat from? It is fantastic! I've been looking for one like that for ages. :)
my coat is from Comptoir des Cotonniers (from a year when that color was everywhere - right now it is almost impossible to find)
I think all the French style is about '' how to forget fashion '' that's why timeless clothes are our preferred
America is the like that too. I like timeless pieces, but I also really like black, silver, and pastels lol. I don't care if something is on trend or not, but once in a while I'll follow a trend that I really do like the aesthetic of.
same almost in Denmark, trends rule people alot.
*The more secure people are the more they dress for themselves and not to fit into a group.*
You see one item on a few people and the following two weeks every other female is wearing the exact same item. It’s almost as if they worry they will be pushed out of their social circle if they don’t obey the current fashion trend.
I find this extra interesting when discussing fashion and so many express they dress in clothes they don’t like because it’s what you are ”suppose” to wear, and not what they genuinly feel like wearing.
Why live for strangers when it’s your money you spend and the items go on your own body?!
Work on meeting those who are insecure and take the right to critique your fashion decisions. And I know so much what you speak of since I grew up in central Stockholm.
I like how respectful you both are in talking about differences in fashion styles. Love this
I'm Swedish but I like the french style more, and how they think. I don't follow trends, I just try to find pieces that look good on me and that I can wear for a long time.

I live in Stockholm, and I hardly ever see trenchcoats! When the weather gets warmer it’s all about the cropped jackets.
I agree with you. I thought she will mention stripes . Or flower prints for some reason.😂 Finnish girls uniform in a way.
lol
As a Norwegian I have to agree, from spring until late summer/early fall, it's usually a leather jacket or at least cropped jackets, and for the winter it's usually a padded coat. I also disagree about the jewelry, I rarely see Norwegian women with lots of it..
I'm Finnish, and when Justine asked about the hairstyle my mind instantly screamed "messy bun" haha. It's everywhere! Combine that with a sweater, leggings and trainers and you've got a 15 year old Scandi girl
I'm more French-oriented when it comes to dressing myself, though I'd go for Scandi interior design (maybe because I love building IKEA flatpacks).
Hi everyone! Happy Sunday! Were these answers what you expected?? 😁 How do you see the style of Scandinavian women? Don't forget to check out Jenny's video, to know what a Scandinavian girl and a French girl wouldn't be caught dead in: ua-cam.com/video/duQqBBsBbno/v-deo.html
Wouldn't the weather have a big impact on fashion choices? I would think that coats would be important in areas that get snow. And boots.
I loved this video - such a fab idea and super interesting. I’d love to do a similar video with you comparing French versus New Zealand fashion. May be tricky given we live a gazillion miles away tho 🙊😂

Justine Leconte officiel ♥️🤗
Justine please do more of these, it would be so informative and interesting! (comparing cultures)
I second this!
Ha ha I asked the same thing on Jenny's channel!
this is so much fun ! it's so cool to see myself on your channel, hihi ! :)
same for me! I have your video in my subscription feed and it feels weird :-D
You two are the best youtubers in my opinion. Great to see you both working together. This video was perfect.
elegant work you two! looking fwd to seeing the series ;-D
I didn't come on any channel but it was fun watching both videos😘 .....
Jenny Mustard
Nice collab!!! And how wonderfully unexpected!!!! Two of my favorite UA-camrs together 🤗
Love this collaboration! My two favourite youtubers together! I lived in London and Paris and I'm happy I have sensed the French style correctly when I lived there. My wardrobe went through a big change when I moved from London to Paris, and again when I moved to Amsterdam!
I live in Sweden, everyone here wears full black clothes 😂
Same in Finland
Classic hair French style is bangs with messy medium hair. Just like you wake up in the morning!
I absolutely loved this conversation! More of them please whenever possible.

We are also sentimental in America about jewelry - my favorite pieces are from family, my husband, friends. Wedding jewelry is a big one, passed down through generations.
I like how sneakers were not even on the radar screen for Justine.
Its like she was scandalized I enjoyed her reaction a lot 😂😂😂
I'm Flemish, Belgian. I would consider my style more French. I also find it funny that of all people Scandinavian people, known for their environmentally progressive ideas, could hold such a consumeristic view on fashion in going for trendy. Guess nobody's perfect! Interesting video.
It can also be seen as a fun hobby?
Me, too! :) Especially about the jewelry, I hardly ever buy myself any, but instead get them as gifts or buy them on "special occasions" like on vacation, so everything has sentimental value.

In my opinion it comes from the fact that they often admire (in this context) American (pop) culture :) (no juging intended either :p)
a finn popping in here. i barely own any trendy pieces, or if i do, ive liked them so much that ive worn them a few seasons. and i also skip many trends. im finding myself going towards the more classic and simple pieces. went to stockholm a few weeks ago and a lot of the people seemed to be very on trend. a lot more than in finland imo. maybe we arent as trendy as people in sweden :-) then again everyones different, im sure we can find both types in both countries.

TangerineTangerine that would be super cool!

French style all the way !!
Following you both from the beginning it is totally weird and perfectly normal at the same time, seeing you both together. Love LOVE!!

Yayyy 2 of my favorites! This is my kind of sunday
Mi Christina me too!
Justiiine I guessed all your answers in advance! which means I really learned from you the French style basics : )
Lo Bass me too 😄😎
Interesting comparisons from two countries that I love. Thank you for excellent material as always Justine.
This was cute! The visual comparisons made side by side really help to emphasize the differences. I love that you have been able to collaborate with other UA-camrs lately.
More like this, where you compare cultures please!!! Love it!
Love love hearing the differences of both countries. I hope you make more of these kind of videos in the future.
Great to see two of my favorite UA-camrs together! Look forward to Jenny's video, too!
Justine and Jenny! Love it! I'm in the middle of these 2 styles. Greetings from the Netherlands.
I'm swedish and I've never been comfortable changing my style with the trends. I've kind of always had "my own style", which is more steered towards timeless pieces. Love having my hair in a bun though! I usually get compliments for being stylish and having my own style even though it's just simple, well fitting clothes of good quality.
And oh, I LOVE my jewelry that I've inherited from my grandmother or great grandmother.
@@MathildaFlow Sounds like you have a great sense of style, love that you wear some inherited pieces of jewelry!!
You can't go wrong with classic, but individual style!!
both of them are articulate and nice spoken persons, they don't talk nonsense like others........I don't have nerves to listen 98% of you tubers, but this two are great and full of useful information .............thank you girls and keep doing what you do
I loved watching the style comparisons with you two, and my husband enjoyed watching it with me. He asks if you have done other videos comparing styles like this in other countries? I'd love to see more like this, it was great watching it!

I was hoping to see you together for a very long time!! I am so happy ❤ I actually discovered Jenny's channel after watching your videos on capsule wardrobe and minimalism. And you are two of my favorite youtubes! Greetings to you both! 😊
The collaboration I've waited for my whole life
Collab of dreams!
I love learning about beauty in different cultures! Thanks!
Although I am three times more Scandinavian than French, I have to say I follow the French style on each if the ten topics that you discussed. 😏
French have it figured out. It's tough to find quality clothes in Stockholm, unless you are 170 cm and 60 Kg.
Helen lanning Same! I was actually kind of embarrassed by the Scandi style...
I really love both these styles. I probably identify more with french style in terms of basics/minimalism but I love the comfort and casualness of Scandi style
wooow! 2 of my favourite stars together! ♡♡♡
love these two, so great to see them together
I lived in Norway for half a year and this description of Scandinavian style is so accurate!
What a nice surprise to see you both in one video! Love your channels
Me too, Me too

I found this so fun! I am Swedish but live in the United States. I loved hearing the differences and similarities between French and Swedish styles. I always look forward to Sunday’s. (:
I love you two so much!!
Can’t believe you two collaborated. 😭 Gorgeous, intelligent, well-spoken women...thank you so much for this!
Great idea to compare styles with other European countries!
Very interesting! I'm from Canada and listening to this, it makes me reflect on our own national style tendencies, and how my own tastes fit in!
This is a wonderful video! Thank you Justine and Jenny! x
Hey, I know I am late, but I keep coming back to this. I learned so much from you and Jenny! About diet, clothing and lifestyle. You really changed my approach to fashion. I dare to wear what I think is stylish rather than just playing it safe and going for my oversized hoodie and sweatpants to cover up my body. I am more mindful when purchasing clothes. I dare to style myself differently, even though that sometimes means weird looks. Most of the time that's positive. I seem more approachable. I get asked for my opinion by strangers when clothes and shoe shopping. It's amazing. thank you so much. This collab was amazing! Also I am currently spending a semester abroad an I love the style influences I get from all the internationals. I am so inspired. I probably would have missed on that if I wouldn't care about fashion.
It was really interesting to hear about two countries fashion and habits.
OMG I never expected that both cultures could be so different. Thanks for both videos.
I loved this! And, just as note, I identified more closely with French on everything except the hair - I can’t do bangs & I can appreciate a good messy bun!!!
I love that you two make that video together, I haven't watch Jenny for a while and I'm shocked, Jenny darlin you have eyebrows again, love both your esthetics. Great job !
Loved this collab! I agree with Justine about the jewelry (sentimental pieces being my favorites) but with Jenny on the shoes. Now on to the next one on Jenny's channel.
Chariots1981 I'm agree too on jewelry, I never wear cheap jewelry, there is no history, it's so sad
Aaaaw I found this only now! Both of you are my inspiration, I've been watching you ladies for quite some time now, so it's great to actually see you together :)
I mostly agree with Jenny on scandinavian fashion. But i think we "aspire" french fashion were it is practical (and affordable)
clothes: One essential piece .. woolen sweater! (well, also a really warm coat)
makeup: I am with Justine here, i think most women try to look natural here
accessories: Yes, dont mix silver and gold. Actually, i know very few that do wear gold at all. Mostly silver or steel.
shoes: Must be practical and warm! Well, you can wear heels in Reykjavik for going out .. but not where i grew up in Vik, cause .. there is nothing to go out anyway and you will just make a clown out of yourself walking around in such shoes.
hair: natural long, rugged, i rarely see bangs
Then again, i just googled and had to realize that we are not actually considered part of scandinavia lol. I always though we were.
still, it is interesting to read about the style in your country!
Same with Finland :D we are Nordic country but not part of Scandinavia, even tho we are so close ;D but style is pretty much the same
simply_A many still count finland as part of scandinavia when talking about this sort of stuff bc we are pretty similar in many ways, even tho geographically were not part of scandinavia, but fennoscandia
also a thing ive noticed with the jewelry, people with warmer/darker skin color usually suit gold better. at least me being very white and cold undertoned suit silver a lot better. definitely goes with preferance but i think that can also have something to do with it lol
ann oh definitely! My sis' skin color is tan and she can work with gold or silver. Although she prefers gold more! For me, I prefer gold too although my skin color isn't as dark. I think the clothes are also an influence with what matches with what.
I'd say both styles have in common the color mixing, as they tend to the monochrome. Here in Latin America we definetely dress more colorful and love the color contrast, even if it's only a black and white look. Great video!
Omg so cool I ❤️ you both!! What a wonderful video today! 💕💕💕
Hi I’m from Sri Lanka. I don’t know if you have ever heard my country but I really enjoy your style tips. They are very professional and applicable universally.
Another difference, that you did touch upon a bit but not fully, is that Swedish people that has a less trend driven style generally like to dress in classic clothes that they like a more preppy & sporty look which I rarely seen in France.
I haven’t watched a video of Jenny’s in awhile and oh my goodness! She looks so different! I love how pulls off so many looks!
The best collaboration I could've dreamed of! ♥️
I really enjoyed this... being a Canadian living in Iceland I do see a difference in the beauty and fashion of the 2 cultures
It's so amazing that you two collaborated! I have always found myself loving both french and scandinavian style. I hope to see more collabs with Jenny! How about a style-swap for a day? :D
lovely idea... we don't have the same size at all, unfortunately :-)
+Justine Leconte officiel You could do a make up/hair style swap instead. Jenny gets a long dark wig and you shave off your eyebrows ;-)
I just need to vent a little bit before I watch this: OMG THIS IS AMAZING!!! Two of my favourite bloggers TOGETHER!!!
I like hearing about the differences.
I love the perspective from two different countries and fashion perspectives. Many thanks...it was interesting, instructive and amusing.
Loving these two classy women ❤❤and loved the video !
The Scandinavian style feels really fresh and trendy but I ABSOLUTELY ADORE French style, it's so timeless and classy and make so much sense to me. Awesome video Justine, as always
SO SO happy to see you together girls ! Would you go for some more videos together maybe ? It's so interesting !
So enjoyed this video. Such a unique perspective. Justine, I just want to say, I don’t think I’ve seen you look more beautiful! Just gorgeous!
I must be French and didn't know it? I never go along with trends and have the same exact style that Justine described . Now it's time to watch the other link! 👍❤
I really enjoyed this video. I am a combination French, Irish, Scottish and totally follow the French style. It makes sense to remain classic as opposed to trendy, however, I think trendy is fine if you can afford to change your wardrobe every year. For me it is better to be classic with quality pieces that stay in style.
Love this and so on point on the Scandinavian style. Just one comment, Finnish women(many) do have a love for strong colours, that difference them from the rest of the Scandinavian women. You can see this especially on big occasion, like weddings, Christmas celebration and so on.. Now I'm of to part 2.. Hugs & sunshine 🌞 N Ps.Hope you had a beautiful Easter J! 🐣 "Glad Påsk!" 🐤 "Hyvää Pääsiäistä!" 🐥
Well, that's probably because Finland isn't a part of Scandinavia, so Finnish women are not "scandinavian". ;) (Nordic, but not Scandinavian.) But yeah, we do seem to love colour a bit more - colour and prints.
Orange Tee True, but the north west part of Finland is a part of the Scandinavian peninsula, but yes you are right! (Nordic and Scandinavian, two separate things..😊) I love the fact that the finnish women are so brave with there choice of colour and prints, tells a lot about the woman.. strong and unique 😘 Halaus ja auringonpaittetta🌞N
I can't think of one Finnish woman who would usually wear strong colours - except my own mother and a couple of middle aged teachers.
Finland isn’t in Scandinavia:) I agree, you can see a bit more of an eastern european influence in finish fashion.
Julia Wincent Totally different to what East Europeans tend to wear these days though. Most Finnish women don't like things overly feminine or sexy, we tend to go for the odd trends more than I've seen elsewhere in Europe. For the most part East Europeans are very feminine, romantic dressers.
I don't often see comparisons between french and scandi styles so it's interesting to learn about them. So cool that you are both based in Berlin. Looking forward to more collabs!
I love French fashion more though. Anyway, you both so beautiful and nice accents.
This was great!!! Plz do more of these, I tend to favor the French style, always have, but the Scandinavian for casual due to weather. And Justine, your hair is so so beautiful, don't even cut it shorter
Thankyou great video, classic variations, love both your styles, very interesting and fun. 🌸🌸
Two of my favourite youtubers. Both r sophisticated and inspirational! Love this video!
I loved the video and the chat, I think most people recognise their locals when they are abroad :)) there is something about each nationality
I LOVE THIS! My 2 fave youtube gals together at last!
As I was doing a bit of spring cleaning through my closet I realised a lot my clothes are from Scandi brands (Swedish or Danish). I find their oversized stuff very comfy and effortless (but still paired up with super skinny Nudies :). But I tend to style those pieces the French way, because I absolutely hate bringing too much attention to myself haha...
Rahmi what are some good Scandinavian brands?
Filippa K and Acne gets mentioned here (UK) a lot. I have some modal & cotton basics from Samsoe & Samsoe, dresses from Monki and denim items from Cheap Monday. All my clothes are affordable (for a student's budget), but they last if you wash them properly. Nudie jeans are very high quality, but they don't really suit my tiny Asian frame. I bought one, which I had to alter, years ago and they've aged better than any jeans I ever owned. I bought a few chunky wool jumpers in Stockholm years ago. They have that traditional Swedish/Scandi pattern (looks like a Christmas jumper). They've became my fav jumpers. Unfortunately I cut off the tags, but it was just a local store so it might have been an unknown brand anyway. Scotland makes similar items and they're relatively cheaper, but still of good quality.
Great video with 2 adorable ladies ❤️Years ago when I was an architecture student living in the hipster side of the city , I tried quite hard to create a Scandinavian look, a cool look. As time went by I became more and more fascinated by the French style , something more timeless,feminine, subtle and elegant. This shift in style has in many ways changed the way I feel about myself .
As a Swede, I can say I didn't agree with even half of what Jenny said - my style is more classic - so it depends a lot upon taste, as well as what company you keep or how and where you grew up. For instance, sneakers and ballerinas are the BANE of my existence for their soles are too thin. Jogging shoes if I must - or sturdy winter boots at the correct time of year - or heels of a 2cm or 1in.
Teshyra agree!!!
Jenny, i would like to see one or more videos showing "the beige trench coat" over the years. I was fascinated with your subtle taste. I am an American. When young, a while ago, it seems that -unknowingly - I followed a lot of the Frech style.
Stocholm is not representing Scandinavia. When going there everybody is following latest trends and look more similar than rest scandi-capitals.
Enjoyed this video! Validating our differences is great! Regarding new videos, I wonder if we can also see a video about handbags to wear according to height and body type! I'd love to be enlightened in this area. We can all have a moderate idea but that doesn't beat the advice of an expert. I recently moved to NY and realized that....my style needs an urgent brush up! Keep up with the good job J, I enjoy your light and powerful videos!
What are french women dressing for at night???
Also used to follow Jenny Mustard a lot! I didn't recognize her really at first! It's so cool to see you two interact :)
Love that gorgeous statement necklace you showed just briefly! Dresses up a black outfit just right
french style is the best! you can't go wrong with a french style. It's classy and timeless:)
Right ! But I do no think that Justine is really an ambassador for the French style, she is too old school !
My two favorite girls in the same video!!! I couldn't be more excited!!! Would love to see more Jenny & Justine!!!
