OOTD: La Vie en Roses
Summer is still raging on in LA this week, and it’s not showing signs of slowing down any time soon. In fact, as seasons go, the upcoming fall months historically tend to play host to some of the hottest weather of the year. File that one under: Things no one tells you when you move to LA.
I, however, am already dreaming of crunchy fall leaves and the crisp weather of l’automne that we’re usually deprived of around here—at least until the end of the year. I usually make a pilgrimage back to the east coast in October or early November to make up for lost time—or lost weather, rather—and absorb all of the cozy vibes and pre-holiday celebration in my knee high boots and chunky knits.
Paris in the fall is also one of the most magical times—although there’s really no such thing as Paris sans magic—and I’m trying not to think about the fact that European travel is still off the table for the time being.
But alas, I’m getting ahead of myself. Summer is still very much happening, and if one must sweat through 90 degree weather in Septembre, one might as well look cute doing it. On that note, it really doesn’t get cuter than this floral set—yes it’s a two-piece skirt and top set—which has all the countryside charm of a Provençal afternoon and the Cottage Core trend that consumed all of us this summer. It’s from one of my favorite Australian brands, Dissh Boutique— a name which you might remember from a little white number I debuted earlier this summer.
They’ve just announced their Spring/Summer 2020 collection—don’t forget that the seasons are inverted Down Under, and it’s now the beginning of spring for our Aussie friends—which means that you can still shop here for plenty of warm weather staples—since chances are, you might be needing them for a while!
