Stella McCartney sweatshirt, J Crew skirt, Marni heels (similar), Proenza Schouler PS11 satchel Making the most of sweater weather while it lasts; which if today was anything to go by, won’t be for too much longer. Saying goodbye to the endless mugs of hot chai and the hearty comfort food to welcome the longer days, dripping lemonade ice blocks, and sweet summer fruits.
