CLEAN PALETTE

I fully understand the irony of talking about in-between season dressing in February. Yet because we've been enjoying unseasonably warm temperatures in LA lately and in-between season dressing is exactly what I've been doing, talking about what I wear when I can no longer slip on my coats and boots, seems entirely appropriate:) 

Most of the time, switching from winter to summer wardrobe isn't easy for me. I guess there is a certain rhythm I get used to when I style outfits around boots and coats. And because weather in LA switched at a drop of a hat, at times, you literally find yourself switching seasons overnight. And sure, this happens all the time, yet I still struggle with going from wearing a fluffy coat on Monday to denim cut-offs on Tuesday:) To make the process of switching a little less painful, what I've been doing lately, is mixing pieces from both summer and winter seasons. So, I'd pair a summery dress with a trench and boots, or wear a pretty lace skirt with a blazer and oxfords as in the case of today's look. 

What about you guys, what's your trick for in-between season dressing?

GARDEN BLUES

After being stuck in bed for almost a week ( battling a massive flu ), venturing outside, even for a little while, feels like a treat. Funny, but you really get a perspective on things when life's little pleasures become temporarily unavailable. All of a sudden, sitting on a park bench, reading your favorite book while sipping hot tea and basking in a glorious California sun, makes you so happy, you can barely contain yourself... I guess nothing works quite like a good old break from everything courtesy of a massive flu to make a workaholic in me face what's really and truly important:)
