Layers


Dress c/o Karen Kane, Sweater Brandy Melville, Wedges Seychelles (Similar pair here), Purse Stella McCartney, Sunglasses Ray Ban, Necklace c/o Stella & Dot

I'm finally adjusting to the weather in San Francisco (as bipolar as it is).
 I can still wear my summer items as long as I have a jacket or 
sweater to layer over them. Currently my favorite thing to do is layer knit sweaters
over dresses. It not only keeps me warmer, but it's a great way to dress down 
some of my dressier dresses.

    You look so effortless and beautiful (as usual), Julia! Your soft hair style is especially pretty and I love the natural make up with the no fuss knotted sweater. Gorgeous!

    Have a lovely day, pretty lady!

    I'm always jealous of the opportunity San Franciscans get to layer, layer, layer! But, it must get some getting used to. You're killing it. I love this outfit.
