L.A. Girls Have Perfected Summer Style—8 Affordable Dresses They're Wearing Now
Pretty much the entire country is experiencing the same sweltering mid-summer weather right now, but here in sunny Los Angeles, 80-plus temperatures and blindingly bright days are hardly news since we're blessed with this kind of summer weather nearly year-round. As it turns out, that doesn't make us complain about the heat any less, but it does mean that us L.A. girls have perfected the art of summer dressing. And let me tell you, a stockpile of easy summer dresses is our top priority.
We've spotted the affordable dresses from our Who What Wear Collection on the city's most stylish crowd already this summer—attending the outdoor movie screenings at our Street Style Cinema events—and biased as I may be, they make for the perfect summer outfits. Since L.A. girls are experts at mixing both low-key and elevated pieces together in a single look, they naturally made the following summer dress picks look nothing shy of perfection.
