LAFW Layers

LAFW look homepage

This is one of my LAFW outfits which involved a lot of layering for the fickle weather (when the sun is shining it’s 74, and when the clouds come five minutes later, it’s 64!). It suited me perfectly since I was constantly going from indoors to outdoors and back in again!

Fall Floral

banana republic silk top forever 21 floral shorts dolce vita boots

Muted florals are perfect during Fall to offset the season’s hibernation spell on foliage. (I actually look forward to the bright orange and golden yellow leaves, however it makes me so sad to see my herb garden wither away!). But since it’s still warm in LA, I’m wearing all the shorts I can before I have to hide my legs in tights, leggings, and pants!

This will be my only outfit post this week because LA Fashion Week is nearly here, but I’ll be sure to keep you posted on all of the action!

Larchmont Leisure

Larchmont Bungalow Asos Dress

One of my favorite ways to spend leisurely weekend mornings is on Larchmont. Grab a bite to eat at the Larchmont Bungalow (though it’s not exactly breakfast food, I love getting the mahi mahi fish tacos there!) and then take a stroll up the street to look in the stores.

Celebrating summer with a little dessert

Grabbed a quick breakfast at Mercat de la Boqueria and did the scenic 5.5 hour drive across the country to San Sebastián. We didn’t arrive until later in the evening, so we didn’t have much time before dark to take photos!

Welcome to Barcelona

Want to know something that I’m quite proud of? I managed to pack all of my belongings for my spanish extrevaganza into a single carry-on bag. That’s a record for me!!! (The key was only 3 pairs of flat sandals)

Anyway, after flying through the night and having to start my day by rolling off of a plane, I was only willing to wear extremely comfortable clothes. Jersey harem pants, a basic tank, and flat shoes were by immediate go-to for a busy day seeing Barcelona on foot (not 100% true… we did end up taking one taxi ride).

Off to the airport!

airport traveling

There are a few things that I keep in mind when I dress for air travel. To me they seem completely normal, when I tell other people, they think I’m nuts for thinking these things…

  1. Jersey knits are your best friend since they don’t wrinkle!
  2. Low heels or flats since you’ll be doing a lot of walking (obviously). And since I’m a bit wary of other people’s germs/plagues/cooties, I always wear shoes with socks for going through security (nothing like walking barefoot where everyone else has…)
  3. Hair pulled back, or a hat to cover it up since it tends to get static-y
  4. And of course, you’ll probably want a jacket in case the guy next to you likes the AC on full blast.
