I've already been dreaming about the perfect summer getaway for weeks (you can find all my previous summer escape posts here), and since I still have 2 weeks to go before my Roman holiday, I'm here today with another dream destination of mine. California in general, and Los Angeles in particular, have been on my travel list for ages. I'm intrigued by the differences between the beaches, the mountains and the glamorous cities that are characteristic for this state (and have I mentioned that it's home to a bunch of my favorite bloggers, like Emily and Anna, and to my all-time favorite fashion maven, Rachel Zoe?).
When it comes to Los Angeles style, I would opt for easy Californian chic for day, and dramatic glamour for night. I'm still not entirely comfortable with the idea of wearing denim cut-offs, but it's the piece that epitomitzes that relaxed vibe. When paired with a chic top, killer gladiator heels and a few colorful accessories, it looks absolutely fantastic.
In the evening, I would opt for a fabulous hi-lo chiffon dress paired with sparkly heels, minimal jewelry and colorful mani/pedi.

ReplyDeleteHi Ivana,
ReplyDeleteAmazing post. I really love Los Angeles. It is definitely my favorite city. I've been there 6th times and this summer it is my 6th :) I am going in 12 days and I'm so excited (you can find my fav places etc on my blog).
Thank you very much for your lovely comment. I'm really happy that you like the bracelets from The Way We Are from my Giveaway. Youre very welcome pretty girl.
I wish you a lovely day

Yes, I love LA!
ReplyDeleteI am loving this post my dear! You always put together the most wonderful collages and outfit inspirations. I am loving those studded cut off jean shorts!!! xx Hope you are wonderful! Whitley
ReplyDeleteI'm dying over that green bag!! Everyone should visit LA at least once (and Hollywood....and Rodeo Drive....and Malibu...and....) but I like the Florida beaches much better.
ReplyDeleteOooh now those are the perfect LA outfits!! I've weirdly never had much desire to visit LA. I've never been to California before, but if I went, I'd be more interested in visiting San Francisco and San Diego instead :)
