Getting a new bag for summer is easy, white is classic. In fact, white goes with everything, not black. So that might be a good place to start, a classic shape in leather.
It sounds like you have a very good wardrobe of basics, so I think what you're looking for is some items to liven it up, and keep it youthful. All the things you have are great, so mix up some plainer pieces with a subtle patterned items. You'll keep the overall simple, French look, but adding in bits of your personality too. To me, that's the key to the French look - keep it simple, but personalise it in some way.
In terms of what colour you should focus on, I think you need to look at your own colouring. A lot of black can be very chic, but can also be harsh on someone who's very pale. Navy blue sits very well with brighter colours, as does grey. Brown can be very chic and warm too. Think first of your skin tone and hair colour before you think about how it fits into your wardrobe.
Hope this helps
