It’s that time again of year again, the moment to say good bye to the lighter fabrics and brighter hues and bring out the layers, warmer fabrics and moodier colors. For this season, I have turned more to a utilitarian look as I will be in my vegetable garden, cooking a lot but also wanting to feel chic enough to meet a girlfriend for tea or run errands. A couple of these designers are friends and Ojai locals and other brands you may recognize as national and international brands. I have chosen my preferred colors in the below pieces but make them your own by opting for varied color ways. I also try my best to focus on responsible and sustainably focused brands. And pieces which for me are timeless and ever green.
