Lay & Mix it up!

I’ve always loved the idea of layering but living in southern California  i’m always limited to so many layers I can wear! (2 days ago it was in the 80′s in LA….seriously hottest winter ever!!!) I created this tutorial for all of you who love that layered look but cant {physically} afford to unless ur willing to risk a heatstroke! haha. Also I just got back from my travels in asia where it was freeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzing and I {finally} got the chance to play with all those layers (and btw lived in my UNIQLO heat tech leggings there). So no matter what side of the world you are at or what climate temperature you may be experiencing I hope you can find a little LAY & MIX inspo here!

(Looks from Right to Left)

Look 1 – BCBG striped shirt, H&M flannel, ALC leather jacket, Rachel By Rachel Roy faux fur vest, David Kahn jeans, Lanvin boots

Look 2- ASOS dress, Rachel Zoe sequins jacket, Rachel By Rachel Roy faux vest, Lanvin boots

Look 3- CeCe Toppings detachable collar, H&M basic black shirt, F21 skirt, Lucca Couture cardigan, Helmut Lang leather jacket, Lanvin boots

Look 4- 6 Shore Road plaid & knitted top, Alpinestars by Denise Foci, Lanvin Boots

    Beautifully done video. Love all the layers! Great tips as I’m from Ohio and traveling to LA in a few weeks so I will definitely have to lighten it up, as I love to layer.

    This pretty much gives me the answer to my comment on one of your earlier posts on how to look trendy without looking like a shop of warm clothes!!
    I didn't know about the heat tech leggings … where did you get yours from?? I'm gonna search about them right away!

Your thought is excellent; the problem is one thing that not sufficient persons are speaking intelligently about. I am very blissful that I stumbled across this in my seek for something relating to this.
