From Paris to Los Angeles: Here Are the Outfit Combinations Fashion Enthusiasts Are Sporting This Summer
Our editors appreciate reference photos of outfits as a source of inspiration for styling items, and having reliable examples makes the process of getting dressed simpler. As summer nears its end, I'm reflecting on some recent combinations worn by influencers, particularly those that can transition into early fall. Camille Charrière donned a knee-length polka-dot halter dress paired with Chanel ballet flats; Anne-Laure Mais showcased a Dôen baby-doll dress complemented by a straw bag; and Sylvie Mus sported a black slip dress with kitten-heel sandals. In Los Angeles, Christie Tyler presented an ideal transitional outfit for fall: a V-neck sweater paired with poplin pants. Jordan Risa chose a white T-shirt layered under a black sheer shirt, along with animal-print ballet flats. Below, I've compiled five outfits inspired by these styles, featuring brands like With Jéan, Dôen, J.Crew, and Gap.
**Knee-Length Halter Dress + Ballet Flats**
Charrière matched a white polka-dot halter dress with Chanel ballet flats akin to With Jéan's Maude Dress and Sam Edelman's popular Alie Ballet Flats.
