I am so amazingly happy to show you all the first outfit from my L.A. trip last week. I’ve been a bit blue from being back in the awfully shit Welsh weather, but I’ve finally got round to going through the insane amount of photos that I took throughout my little California adventure – I definitely got a bit trigger happy…
Both myself and my boyfriend were pretty surprised at how warm it is over there – on this day it hit 28 degrees Celsius, and we spent the day both exploring the Fashion Districts in West Hollywood whilst also chasing the shade. It definitely came down to a big compromise between style and comfort in this situation. I ended up pretty much living in my Vans Old Skool‘s for the entire trip, so I could run around and explore without having to worry about sore feet – yaaas!
As I do burn pretty easily, this LYDC x Lipsy dress was perfect for keeping me covered while the light material was so comfortably breathable. Plus, have you seen the shape? The skater skirt was a massive tick for me, but it was a hell yes once I noticed the sleeves. This is a great understated way to jump on the Flared Sleeve trend without fully committing – and I love it. Throw on some ultra-black cat eye sunnies and a trusty tassel detail bag and hey presto, instant L.A. chic.
How would you dress up/down for that L.A. cool style?
