Pre-fall season in LA is a sartorially confusing time for me.

I can't believe it's pre-fall season already. And in a week I'm going to view SS '15 collections at NYFW! Where has the time gone?
Los Angeles is caught in a bipolar weather mood swing--one day (like yesterday) it's in the 90s...and then the next day is a cool reprieve from the heat, full of promise for the upcoming fall season. Or maybe I'm still used to the "feels like 120 degrees" weather I experienced for three weeks in Asia. In any case, I mirrored this and dressed in a very fall plaid coat with a very spring/summer crop top. I'm also super stoked about my new Dr. Martens--my first pair of actual Doc combat boots!--to stomp around in. My best friend tells me hers saves her life in NY and I love this new style perfect for LA because it's in a not-as-heavyweight leather, with the same durable sole. And of course, I finished my look with my wild woman hair (freshly redone by James Miju~)...personally in season all year round.
What I'm wearing: JOA plaid coat via Dailylook. Dailylook crop top. Black Orchid jeans (similar here). Dr. Martens Pascal boots in Virginia.
